Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo 3DS Game Kaio: King of Pirates Is Now Cancelled

They only spent $3.8 million on a game that was announced all the way back in 2011?

They clearly weren't working on it during that time.

You need that much money nowadays to make a decent game (because of the platform (3DS))? 



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

TBH probably not, I imagine this game will have had a relatively small team. But games do cost an awful lot to make, average salary is $49k. That's $980k just to pay a team of 20 for a year.



That's a bummer. The concept looked good at least. Gaming world needs more franchises that can be enjoyed by younger and older gamers, and this seemed like one.



Bummer...
I was wondering whatever happened to this game...



Have a nice day...

I remember when this was first announced, back when 3DS had no games.
