3DS

A few days ago, we found out that Atari had pushed back RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D to an unspecified date. This wasn’t a development-related issue, as n-Space had completed the game some time ago.

The studio has offered a few comments about the situation on their Facebook page. Strangely, they don’t know why Atari delayed the release of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D. The title was approved by Nintendo of America last month, so this move might just be a marketing move.

n-Space said:

“Apparently Atari has delayed the release of Roller Coaster Tycoon 3D. Unfortunately, we first learned of this from the same reports as the rest of you. The game is complete and approved by Nintendo of America as of Jan 31 and we’re waiting for news of its approval in Europe. …I don’t know any more about Atari’s reasons. Publishers face many, many considerations when releasing a game – timing, marketing support, distribution, etc. Making a good game is only a small part of the bigger battle of releasing a successful product.”

Still no word on when we can expect RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D… at least we have some new screenshots!



This is an encouraging sign, but… My rule of thumb is not to get excited until a company confirms a rumor. There have been plenty of instances in which one (or more) publication has reported on something, and then everyone gets disappointed when they find out that the speculation was incorrect.

I would be surprised if Tri G stayed in Japan, though let’s just wait and see how this rumor plays out.

Mighty Switch Force won’t be the only WayForward title for the eShop. CEO John Beck has said that the store “will be a major part of our strategy for handheld games going forward.”

Beck told Gamasutra:

“When you have certain content that is available exclusively on dedicated gaming devices, it really helps to set that content apart. The eShop will be a major part of our strategy for handheld games going forward.”

Will WayForward make a Mighty Switch Force sequel? Will they make a completely original game? Only time will tell!
