Mighty No. 9 team very open to handheld versions, could be stretch goals on Kickstarter
Mighty No. 9 could very well end up on the 3DS. While this already seemed like something that could happen, an official Kickstarter update discusses the possibility in depth.
Handheld versions for Mighty No. 9 have been talked about “since the earliest stages of this project”. At the end of the day, it’s about money. With enough fan requests, “and if we’re able to set and achieve stretch goals that would justify the cost, we would be thrilled to make this happen.”
For now, the Mighty No. 9 staff will “continue watching for more feedback and start working up more detailed budgets just in case”.
Another message we have gotten loud and clear: A portable version of Mighty No. 9 is something many of you are excited about — and believe us, we would love to see it happen as well. Potential 3DS and/or Vita versions of the game are something we’ve been discussing since the earliest stages of this project, as handhelds are something our developers have plenty of experience with. Unfortunately, that experience tells us that these things cost money — however, the road to making them a possibility is relatively straightforward: If we continue to see more and more fans asking for portable versions of Mighty No. 9, and if we’re able to set and achieve stretch goals that would justify the cost, we would be thrilled to make this happen. In the meantime, we’ll continue watching for more feedback and start working up more detailed budgets just in case, so please continue to let us know how much of a priority this is for you. Thanks!
