3DS eShop

Earlier this year, Muteki confirmed its two Dragon Fantasy games for 3DS. Although there hasn’t been much news since January, you’ll be happy to know that development is progressing smoothly.

Muteki’s Adam Rippon told us that Dragon Fantasy: Book I “is coming along quite well” on 3DS. Currently, the team is working on performance improvements.

Dragon Fantasy is running at about 50 frames per second at the moment – just like the PS Vita version. However, Rippon wants it to be “a perfect 60FPS”.

Muteki hopes to talk about launch plans for Dragon Fantasy: Book I at PAX.

Now for a small update on Dragon Fantasy: Book II. It’s still planned for 3DS, though “it’s not quite as far along”. Book II will launch later down the road.

Rippon ended our communication by stating that both Dragon Fantasy titles “look and play extreeeeeeemely well on the 3DS. It’s like they were made for it!”

Yacht Club Games is pleased with Shovel Knight’s sales performance thus far. The game has only been out for about a month, but the studio’s Sean Velasco told Game Informer:

Velasco: I’d say it’s doing very well. We are very pleased with where it’s at, even this early in the sales time.

Yacht Club’s Nick Wozniak also commented on Shovel Knight’s sales, stating: “Across all platforms it’s exceeding expectations.”
