Valve has never made a game for a handheld system. Based on a recent comment from the company, it doesn’t sound like they’ll be changing their policy anytime soon.

Regarding portable gaming, Valve’s Chet Faliszek said:

“We’re about people sitting on their couches or at their desks. We haven’t forayed into that space. It’s just not a space our engine has been looked at or optimized for.”

I wouldn’t expect Valve to make any titles for the 3DS, but this officially rules out any possibility. Let’s hope that they’ll be open to bringing some content to Wii U…

Although the 3DS Circle Pad attachment initially received negative backlash, fans are starting to warm up to the idea. We’ve also learned that quite a number of high-profile games will take advantage of the new add-on, including Monster Hunter Tri G and Kingdom Hearts 3D. And, just a couple of days ago, Activision provided some positive commentary about the peripheral.

Gaijin Games, however, is completely against the accessory. Alex Neuse said in a recent interview that he believes “it’s total crap” and feels “frustrated as a consumer.”

I think it’s total crap. I’m very frustrated as a consumer. It seems obvious to me that it’s only a matter of time until Nintendo releases a new 3DS with a second Circle Pad on it, and then what am I going to do? I’m going to give them more of my money. Like I always do.

Also, as a developer, it’s a bummer whenever first parties come out with something like this. Whether it’s the Expansion Slide Pad, Wii Motion Plus, PlayStation Move, or Kinect, developers have a hard decision to make about whether they want to support the new features of the hardware.

From one perspective, new hardware is very exciting, but from another perspective, it’s very risky; because if your game requires it, that means that you’re forcing the player to have that hardware. And not all consumers will have bought the new device.

It’s just a bummer all around, in my opinion.
