Anima: Gate of Memories

A few of you may remember Anima: Ark of Sinners from back in the days of Wiiware. While the title may not have exactly delivered the highly polished experience that some may have expected, it was at least a mostly competent sidescroller set in the world of Anima: Beyond Fantasy. A few years back, a separate studio ran a Kickstarter campaign for Anima: Gate of Memories, a 3D successor that was successfully funded with a PC, Mac, and Wii U version promised.

The game still has yet to release on any platform, but a recent Kickstarter update seems to indicate that the Wii U port isn't doing too hot. The game will be available on all other platforms first, though the Wii U version will be a few months behind, if it even makes it out at all. Here's the quote:

Anima Gate of Memories will be released simultaneously in Windows, Xbox One and PS4 and we are working to be able to release a few months later a WiiU version (which, even if we are still not sure, we hope that will be possible).

What do you think? Would you be bummed if this didn't come to Wii U? What did you think of past Anima games? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
