David Braben of Frontier Developments recently sat down with Cubed3 and during that conversation LostWinds came up as a topic.  They discussed a few different things that Frontier is looking at for the franchise.  One of those things was a semi-confirmation of a new LostWinds game and of course WiiWare is being discussed as a possible platform for that release. 

He also talked about DSiWare and that they may be working on something in the future.  It may not be directly related to LostWinds, but more of a “Game of the Week” idea, which if you didn’t know was how the idea for LostWinds was spawned in the first place.

I can tell you that the first game was on the top of my list of WiiWare games in 2008 and the sequel shot to the top of my list for 2009.  This game rivals many of the retail disc experiences in terms of quality.  More LostWinds would only be a good thing and I would really like to see a fully fledged double digit hour length experience come to Wii.  I think it’s the perfect platform for a game like that.  If you haven’t read it yet, check out our review of the game and I urge everyone who hasn’t played it yet to download this game and give it a try.
