Majesco hinting at new platform?

Majesco has revealed part of its FY2010 line-up. Among the titles, one titles (Zumba Fitness) mentions "another to be announced system".

It's E3 and that means rumour time. One day before both Nintendo and Sony's press conferences, Majesco Entertainment issued out a press release covering their plans for the remainder of fiscal year 2010. Among the various titles (shown below), Zumba Fitness is described as "Zumba Fitness for Wii, PlayStation Move and another to be announced system is a one-of-a-kind exercise program that pairs Latin rhythms with red-hot international dance steps so you can have a blast as you party your way into shape." Now with claims such as that, anything could happen.

Either Majesco is not yet revealing that the game might come to Xbox 360 or iPad, or Majesco is (not yet) allowed to speak of the Nintendo 3DS, PSP2, PlayStation 4 or even the successor to Wii. Handhelds seem to be the odd ones for a fitness-title, but remember Lets Yoga for Nintendo DS...

For now, it remains unknown which platform is referred to here by Majesco. We hope to be able to inform you more within the next three days.

For now, we'll have to do with Majesco's line-up. To date, Majesco has announced the following titles that were or are expected to be released during its third quarter:

• Tetris Party Deluxe for Wii and Nintendo DS represents a strategic partnership with Tetris Online, Inc. to support the North American launch and distribution of the two newest additions to the Tetris franchise. Tetris Party Deluxe builds on the previously released Tetris Party for WiiWare by adding new modes and features to enrich the overall game play experience for both platforms.

  Turns out it's Kentic indeed. Bad timing by the PR, as the platform was already revealed by the time the press release got issued out
