Quest of Dungeons dev gives an update on Wii U and 3DS versions
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Quest of Dungeons were confirmed for both Wii U and 3DS back in February. The developer shared a status update today, and touched on features that are in the works.
There’s no word yet on a release date, but Quest of Dungeons may hit Wii U and 3DS simultaneously. Both versions are coming along.
On Wii U, Quest of Dungeons will feature off-TV play and Pro Controller support. There will also be an option to play between the GamePad and TV so that you can take advantage of a touch-based inventory, map, and more to manage things.
The 3DS has been a bit more difficult to work with due to technical challenges, but it’s moving along. An updated version of the UI / use of dual screens should allow players to manage items on the lower screen by touch. StreetPass support is also under consideration:
When you StreetPass someone you send and receive ghosts from previous runs to the other user. Here’s how it works, when you die, the game saves your character as it is, stats, equipment, etc. There is later a chance, that in a new game you might encounter yourself, but now you will also send those ghosts to the other players. So when you find ghosts from other users (they will have a icon in-game to make it different) if you defeat them, you’ll get all the loot. Cool right?

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 86 Comments
At this point, there are definitely companies out there who have NX dev kits. There are some others though who still haven’t heard much from Nintendo.
Take these two comments from Skylanders developer Toys for Bob for example:
“We haven’t heard any news from Nintendo, so we don’t have any announcements.” – Paul Yan, Toys for Bob’s associate creative director
“I don’t know what [the NX] is. (Nintendo keeps a) very, very, very, very, very tight lid on everything.” – Lou Studdert, associate producer at Toys for Bob
