Oh I forgot about Rhythm Heaven, I thought I was missing a Wii game somewhere.

Oh, these guys are doing MP?
Worked on Wii Crush, which resulted in many departures. Therefore no more console games from them.
Shiggy said:The NST guys? They worked on a real game, Project HAMMER, which was pretty far concepted. But then Nintendo went on the casual route and wanted Wii Crush, a casualised and cheap Project HAMMER knockoff. Thank goodness that game was never released, still, NST lost some really great folks (Colin Reed, Vivek Melwani, among many others).
Oh, that's what Wii Crush was. I thought their releases lately were quite weird. What a waste, especially considering the current 'we love U hardcore gamers' thing.
They had a Wii RPG until 2009 in development, which was canned. Since then, their employee count went down from 80 to 30 - expect handheld games only.
Genius Sonority? Really? I didn't know that at all. Who's handling the Pokemon console simulators then? (I heard that there was a Wii one coming this year, not who developed it, I just assumed it was these guys)
lunchwithyuzo said:If you're including DD stuff, EAD3 has The Rolling Western and EAD Tokyo 2 has Flipnote Studio 3D.
Yeah, I did remember those, but I was focusing on retail games mainly because they generally require more development time and personnel, so the whole team may not be working on just the DD game at once. Rolling Western does look interesting, though I haven't focused on flipnote studio much.
I think EAD3 is also probably moving directly to Wii U Zelda, anything else we see on 3DS will be from Grezzo I bet.
After their work with OoT3D it's certainly possible, especially because moving to HD Zelda as well as developing for 3DS could easily take more time/money/people than developing for Wii/DS at the same time. Grezzo's only had two games published so far though (OoT and the WiiWare's Line Attack Heroes) neither of which look like they involved the complete planning and development an original Zelda title would require. I'm not saying they can't do it, but they may need some input from the EAD3 team to help out.
