New portable will make 3D games accessible.
Nintendo are planning on bringing both 2D and 3D Mario platformers to its new handheld, general manager Shigeru Miyamoto has revealed.
According to Andriasang, when asked at an investor Q&A last week whether the platform holder was planning a 2D or 3D Mario platformer for the 3DS, Miyamoto said, “The answer is, of course, we’ll make both. They both have their own appeal.”
“When Super Mario became Mario 64, the range of players narrowed greatly,” he added, before explaining how the new handheld’s 3D effect will make games easier to play by helping users judge depth of field.
