Saints Row 3DS to be called “Drive By”, THQ says it’s not a risk like Chinatown Wars

This information comes from THQ Core games VP, Danny Bilson. In addition to the quote below, Bilson confirmed that the Saints Row 3DS title will be called “Drive By.”

“This isn’t a big risk like ChinaTown Wars for us. Also, Nintendo is really going to market to the core with that device.”

It’ll be interesting to see how the sales of mature games on the 3DS compare to the DS over time. Chinatown Wars didn’t exactly light up the charts when it was released, nor did other titles such as Resident Evil: Deadly Silence. Since Nintendo will be supporting the 3DS in terms of being more of a “core” system, one would expect games that fall under that category to perform better.
