Capcom will think about supporting NX, Nintendo’s new system, according to the company.

During its latest financial results meeting, there was this exchange with an investor:

Q. What are your plans involving new platforms (NX, PlayStation® VR and others) and the timing of launches of Capcom titles for these platforms?

A. Our R&D operations are working on technologies for many types of hardware. We will consider the possibility of creating technology demonstrations and making versions of titles under development for these new platforms. At this time, we have not announced any plans for specific products or the timing of a product launch.

Capcom brought a few titles to Wii U, which was Nintendo’s most-recent system launch. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate was available at the Japanese release and soon after in the west. Other Capcom titles include Resident Evil: Revelations, DuckTales Remastered, and Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara.
