Toki Tori 2 won’t be coming to the 3DS
Fans of the Toki Tori series may remember that the series started out on the Game Boy Color. The game is also available on the 3DS eShop right now.
Toki Tori’s portable roots begs the question: could we ever see Toki Tori 2 on the 3DS? The short answer is no.
On Twitter, Two Tribes explained that Nintendo’s portable isn’t capable of running the title fast enough.
In order to make it happen, the studio would need to “use the same systems but build a different game around it that suits the hardware better.”

The only way we could get it on 3DS is to use the same systems but build a different game around it that suits the hardware better.

It would look super sweet in 3D though, the layered backgrounds are perfect for the depth effect.
