3DS: Unity Engine not planned for the system

But the Wii U is fine.

Posted By | On 24th, Sep. 2012

Earlier we reported that the Unity Engine was going to be on the Wii U and was also going to offer Direct X11 equivalent graphics, but Nintendo’s handled system won’t get such love according to Unity Technologies developer relations officer Tracy Erickson.

She said to Nintendo Life (via VG247) that it depends on the situation at hand.

“Regarding Nintendo 3DS, that’s kinda like asking about Pikmin 4 when Pikmin 3 hasn’t even come out yet. The relationship between Nintendo and Unity has reached an exciting new level and we’re focused on Wii U,” she said.

“Timing is important here since the console launches in this year, too. While there are no current plans to support Nintendo 3DS, we’re always looking at what platforms make sense for us to support, where developer demand is, and the opportunities available for our developer community.”
