Rumor: Nintendo to let indie devs make games without office space
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, General Nintendo, Podcast Stories, Rumors, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
In order to become an indie developer on Nintendo platforms, certain requirements must be met. For instance, a dev must maintain a dedicated business place. Studios can’t receive kits without meeting this criteria.
Interestingly, it seems that Nintendo could be abandoning the requirement.
Take a look at this tweet from Nintendo of America’s Dan Adelman:
@daxhalo @spiltmilkstudio Ask me again in a couple weeks. 😉

The tweet above coupled together with others rumor suggest that Nintendo may allow indie devs to make titles for its platforms without having an office space. That would only lead to a better situation for fans – it means more games!
These games are coming soon to the 3DS eShop

Capcom on Monster Hunter 4 for Vita: “no plans at the moment beyond platforms that have been announced”
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
It appears that Monster Hunter 4 won’t be heading to the PlayStation Vita after all – at least for the time being.
Capcom’s Christian Svensson, responding to the rumor from Japanese gaming magazine Game Lab, said:
“There are no plans at the moment beyond platforms that have been announced. Obviously rumors and speculation will continue regardless of what I tell you.”
This doesn’t mean that Monster Hunter 4 will never hit the Vita. Capcom has already brought Monster Hunter Tri, initially a Wii game, to the 3DS and Wii U.
