Epic Games unlikely to support the 3DS, believes specs aren’t high enough for Unreal Engine

This information comes from Epic Games VP Mark Rein…
“No. It’s below our [minimum specifications], from what we can tell. We don’t have a 3DS, so there’s no way for us to verify that, but everything we’ve been led to believe is that it’s below our min-spec. You couldn’t do a game that looks like [Epic Citadel] on it, for example. Like I said, we really don’t know enough about it to make a formal comment, but I think if they considered that our engine would be good on it, they would have probably talked to us about it.”
This news is actually quite interesting, as prominent Epic Games developer Cliff Bleszinski recently expressed interest in the 3DS. Although, ultimately, Mark Rein and other administrative employees have the final say in terms of supporting the system.
