Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo opens a worldwide portal for developers

I've lost track how many times they've renovated their dev portal in recent years. Nintendo seems very invested in improving their dev relationships.

Great job Nintendo. The new president of Nintendo will make Nintendo Great again.

Nintendo is finally learning to be more open to developers. Hopefully this will help with the NX.

Great article though. Nice to read it. Having some optimism for the NX.

Me too, even if they're not mentioning NX yet on the Dev Portal.



Seems like a good move, specially for indie / small developers



Nintendo reaching out so hard they're opening inter-dimensional portals.

Good to hear.

Love it! Especially the stuff about helping the little guys :)

Let's wait and see.  We've been though something similar before.  Nintendo did improve with the Wii U but there were also games like Undertale and Hyper Light Drifter where an agreement couldn't be reached between Nintendo and the engine builder, even though it was once considered a matter of course.  



It's amazing how in the last few years Nintendo has been working so hard, and in the right direction, to reach indie/small developers, and how hard it is for them to get big publishers/developers on board.

Anyway, good job Nintendo. Keep pushing in that direction.

Honestly, this is something Nintendo should have done years ago. They're really lacking in 3rd party relationships

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Better now than never. At least they show us they want to improve. Some companies have stalled for years believing they are doing the right thing. It's important to always question yourself on your methods. That's how we can evolve into something better.

yes, I totally agree; better late than never. I think it's a good move, I applaude Nintendo for their effort and I hope this will lead to better 3rd party relationships and games in the future. It's nice to see them try at the very least.
