Forums - Nintendo - Retro City Rampage Coming To Nintendo 3DS, Not A “Quick And Dirty Port”


Nintendo has confirmed via a press release issued today that Retro City Rampage will be coming to Nintendo 3DS. The game will be playable for the first time at this year’s PAX Prime event along with a number of other titles. Here’s what the developer had to say about development of the game on their official blog.

“The 3DS version is the first that’s required significant development work. While all previous versions were nearly pixel-for-pixel identical, the dual screens, lower resolution and less beefy processor meant some things had to go back to the drawing board. Quality’s important to me and for it to play well, it wasn’t going to be a quick-n-dirty port. It packs all of the same content as the other versions, including the new Retro+ Enhanced Graphics mode, but every mission is being tweaked and adjusted to run best with the zoomed in camera. I’m also still working on the best ways to utilize the bottom screen for both convenience and gameplay. I’m not a fan of flow-breaking minigames, but selecting weapons, scrolling the minimap, or even using the screen for dual-stick style shooting are on my list to explore.”
