Yesterday we brought you the news that the 3DS sequel to WiiWare title Jett Rocket was confirmed to be nearly finished and on the way "early this year", good news for those who'd wondered about its fate for much of 2012.
With that happy news confirmed, developer and publisher Shin'en Multimedia has now clarified the title for the sequel, which is a diversion from the original codename and, for our money, a possible homage to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan — it's Jett Rocket II - The Wrath of Taikai.
Hopefully in the coming weeks we'll learn more about the story and, perhaps most importantly, get some juicy gameplay footage to enjoy. In the meantime, are you digging the title?

Sweet. Insta buy! Made my 3ds happy!!
Awesome! Much better title! So... gameplay images? Fottage? No? Oh well!
TAIKAAAAAAAI!
Couldn't resist
I guess this would be a good time for me to download the one in the wii shop since I have the extra wii points that I cant transfer to the Eshop and a tiny bit more time.
Wonderful news! Next, "FAST League Racing" 3DS/Wii U...
Digging the title. Certainly better than Super Surf (At least now I don't have to fear that it's somehow going to turn out to be a surfing game).
The One on WiiWare looked pretty cool I just might get this one
I never played the first one... so calling it Jett Rocket 2 actually makes it a little less appealing for me. but oh well. if its good I'll get it.
Nice to see it's not just an adapted version of the original. The first game was very good for a WiiWare title.
Loved the WiiWare game. Hopefully we get some footage soon!
Definite instabuy. I loved the first title, and looking at what they did with Art of Balance: Touch and the size limit, I think this will be a bit longer then the original (just prediction)
Awesome! Jett Rocket's a great game, and it looks as if Shinen are just having a lot of fun with it. Looking forward to this!
For their next thing, as others are suggesting, FAST would look great in 3D as well, and spectacular in HD on the Wii U.
Shame they've gotten about NanoAssault EX..
I wish they would release some screenshots and a trailer. Throw us a frickin' bone here!
My only hope is that it's longer than the first one. Otherwise, I'm very interested.
Please just let me be able to change my character from baby-face to... I dont care, a frikken robot.
The thing i didn't like about the first game was Jett rocket himself... his face was so annoying and i bought the game thinking you could play as a mii since it said you use your miis in the game description (you only use them for ur file icons) and the other thing i don't like about him is his voice... ugh... I hope they change it ._.
The first one was a pretty fun game. It wasn't real long, but for what they were working with it came out good.
@waveboy I enjoyed Jett Rocket more than I enjoyed Super Mario 3d Land..
After liking the first one so much I was starting to fear the sequel because of the "super surf" on the title, but now it will be a definite buy!
@WaveBoy You CANNOT complain this is generic and say Super Mario 3D Land isn't. That game had no innovation whatsoever.
Cool! Jett Rocket gets a sequel, on the 3DS! Looking forward to it! I guess it will look very sweet!
