SL on 3DS? It could work!

[bronislav84]

Since I got one recently, I was thinking why not? After successfully porting SL to Chrome and with PL coming to Chrome, it could be done.

Just porting the Xperia Play interface to the 3DS and modifying it a bit is the easiest option. What can also be done is to create a system-specific interface which takes advantage of the system's touch screen for menu (opened with the Start button) and menu buttons. Top screen for gameplay, skill layout on the right, and minimap overlay. When the menu is not open the touch screen would have emotes, pots, and a toggle for the minimap. Select can be used to Exit level, at which point the touch screen changes to character select options and stuff. L and R would flip skills like the Play, B for auto attack. Chat can be done through a software keyboard.

The system has unrestricted WiFi access for games and does not require friend codes for internet access like the DS and Wii. Why not have SL as a free download in the Nintendo eShop? Just have it connect to the character database from the rest of the versions.

Of course plat would be a bit hard to set up. I dunno how that would work out, but I'm sure the gameplay would work at least.

What do the rest of you think? Devs care to comment?

Great idea!!!!

I think this has been suggested in the past but none the less it would be cool to play on that 3d screen and to have buttons.

I really thought I was the first to suggest it.

Oh and I doubt they can make SL actually 3d since that requires special software to create depth on the screen.

[octavos]

I say psp vita. Because of the xperia play interface and wifi and 3g capability.

[Skeletonlord]

Id love to see sl on 3DS

[bronislav84]

Dude, Ghost, they can make a version for both. Does Vita have touch controls?

But seriously if you wanna suggest that it's a matter for another thread. What do you think of a 3DS version? Heck, make it 3d.

[mugen]

Lol yes 3d FTW
But ya I do understand it would take extra work but 2d would be cool on ds or psp IMHO

PS vita has front touchscreen and a back touchpad.

Though with both 3DS and PS Vita, I'm sure STS would have to make a deal with Nintendo or PSN so that Sl is free on both those platforms.

Eh, I don't want thousands of 10 year old's in Fort Blackstone begging me when I'm trying to use CS

Didn't know that. Ok put it on both, except Vita isn't released yet and 3DS is. Can start working on a 3DS version while they wait for a Vita release.

I do not see a problem with making those deals, really.

Doesn't that already happen?

For the vita, all STS has to do is take the control layout off the experia play and mash it with any Sony product

PL and SL on a 60" screen playing on the ps3... COULD YOU IMAGINE! I would very easily pay 20-50$ to buy PL from the PSN store.

[bronislav84]

Yes, they could, but they wouldn't charge for it.

But what's with people going off topic?

PS No problem, Nintendo on the other hand.. but STS have been able to bring some magnificent things out of that magic hat of theirs

[Arterra]

I can attest not the first time suggested. here is a image i posted somewhere about a year ago, around AO3 era.



daaaamn would it be awesome...

[bronislav84]

Terra how can you have suggested PL on 3DS back in AO3 era? Was it announced back then even? Also your interface leaves too much to the touch screen and not enough to buttons. Should be a mix of both.

If STS wanted to they could negotiate it no problem.

[Arterra]

all I remember is that i was in some sort of funny "artist" phase back then, recently discovering google-drawingboard and all. I have pictures that I i drew relating to the overlord and with scimitars in them...
It was announced as a Nintendo project a while ago, sometime last year for sure.

Off Toic:

Grrrrrr... Just lost an hour+ of my life, used the trusty search bar and typed 'Nintendo project' took me to an announcements thread for Beta SL, read the whole thing from top to bottom (would have loved to had my say in that.. oh well ) LOL!
