It wasn't stalled. It never started. It was never greenlit. There's no point in starting another operation rainfall when the company bases sequel potential on sales. It obviously didn't do as good as they had hoped.
A few vocal fans isn't enough to convince a company to make a game that has been proven, twice in a row, to sell horribly.

999 and VLR had some mind blowing story twists. I hope the sequel gets made some how........

Nintendo could offer to publish/finance the game as a Wii U title since it needs all the games it can get at this point.
As much as I love visual novel games in general, I cannot imagine playing this on my home console, despite the fact that yes, I know, there are such games for home consoles, esp. PS3.
And a 3rd 999 game would help Nintendo sell Wii U's as much as Bayonetta 2 will. As in, not really.

Sure... but it would make me feel better about owning a Wii U. ;)
Totally hope this gets made, especially after the second game improved gameplay a great deal by introducing the timeline feature to make skipping around/replaying much easier.

I absolutely loved the story and the adult themes of 999 and Virtue's Last Reward. I really hope a publisher sees this and backs the development team to make a 3rd title in the series. I don't know the sales figures outside of Japan, but hopefully they're enough to justify another game.
