Rex Rocket devs dead-set on bringing the game to Nintendo platforms, release date, Blosom Tales Kickstarter
A portion of a NintendoEnthusiast interview with Rob Maher...
NE: You have vowed to bring the game to Nintendo platforms, namely 3DS & Wii U. Have you considered communicating a stretch goal for this and if so, how much would you need?
RM: We posted our stretch goals a few days ago to reach the other platforms but we didn’t set one for Nintendo. We felt like a stretch goal wasn’t needed to bring our game to Nintendo as it’s something we dead set on making a reality.
NE: We have discussed a release date of January 2014. This would be the initial release, so what time-frame could we expect to see the 3DS & Wii U versions?
RM: Depending on how the process goes with being approved by Nintendo to become developers, I’d say that there’s an excellent chance that you’ll be seeing Rex pop up on 3DS and/or Wii U by Spring 2014. Hopefully this will happen sooner than Spring; we’ve already begun researching the steps to bring Rex to Nintendo and should have more info in the coming weeks.
NE: Porting your previous game Blossom Tales to Nintendo’s platforms has been mentioned. Do you think you would go down the Kickstarter route again?
RM: Absolutely! Kickstarter is an amazing platform for bringing your concepts, ideas, and dreams into the world and we can’t thank their staff enough. When we move onto development for Blossom Tales, a Kickstarter campaign will be on the roadmap.
