Jordan Mechner hinting at a 2D Prince of Persia

Here's what Mechner had to say in a French interview (in a fan's rough translation):
"I think now would be a good time to launch a sequel, there is new interest in 2D games, platform games in particular, the public would be ready and open to discover a new Prince of Persia game if it is turned not to nostalgia, but to something unusual, innovative and beautiful. "

He is actually talking about Prince of Persia 3, a sequel to the Shadow and Flame and on Twitter he's retweeting stuff like this:

I have to say I'd be very happy if this ended up happening, a new 2D game in the franchise would be awesome and if it's a sequel that finishes that old story with the witch and the snake cult from the end of Shadow and Flame then well, that's even more awesome.
