Curve Studios planning more 3DS support
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Curve Studios has plans to better support the 3DS in the future.
When asked if releasing more titles on the portable system was under consideration, the company’s Rob Clarke told us:
Yes! This is the plan, anyway. The 3DS is a tricky console. A ton of us at Curve own a 3DS and we love it, but when it comes to developing games it’s a bit trickier. Many of our games started out on PC and are designed for fast systems with tons of resources. We have to go back to the drawing board if we want to make them on the 3DS, and in the past we’ve not always wanted to do that. However, we decided that it’s too good a system to keep missing out on, so even before the new 3DS was announced we had already made the decision to look at bringing out more games for it, so we should have an announcement about that pretty soon.
Curve Studios has only released one game on 3DS thus far – the Nintendo-published Fluidity: Spin Cycle. Thankfully, it sounds like we can count on new games gracing the eShop in the future.
We’ll have more from Curve Studios throughout the coming week.
