Nintendo’s new Developer Portal just went online – this website serves as a hub for everyone wanting to develop games for Nintendo platforms (i.e. Wii U and 3DS, there’s no NX info on the site, as expected). The Developer Portal welcomes developers of all sizes – from big companies to one-person indie devs. Previously, Nintendo had separate programs for “big” developers and for indies. The website and program are currently available in both English and Japanese.

The website offers developers help on all the steps involved with releasing a game on Nintendo platforms – development tools such as Unity, self-publishing, PR and so on.
