Next Level on respecting original devs and fans for sequels while understanding current differences, Mr. Bean inspiration, more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, GameCube, News, Podcast Stories | 0 comments
It has taken over a decade for Nintendo to come out with a second Luigi’s Mansion game in Dark Moon. Nintendo is not, however, making the game themselves. Next Level Games is handing the primary development of the 3DS title.
Next Level Games’ Bryce Holliday recently spoke about the need to “respect the original developers and the fans” when it comes to “sequelling or bringing back a franchise”. At the same time, he acknowledged that “you can also figure out what’s different from then to now, and one of the big differences is the hardware has changed.”
“When you’re sequelling or bringing back a franchise, you need to respect the original developers and the fans of the product. But you can also figure out what’s different from then to now, and one of the big differences is the hardware has changed.”
