Nicalis and NIS America are giving Cave Storya full remake for the Nintendo 3DS. This version of Cave Story is still a platformer, but the game uses 3D models instead of sprites. Iplayed a tiny bit of it and it was just likeCave Story 2.5D.
When NIS America announced Cave Story 3D, they said the title was on track to be a "launch window" game. We honed in on the date and Cave Story 3D is scheduled to be in stores on June 28.
In addition to 3D graphics, producer Tyrone Rodriguez and creator Daisuke Amaya mentioned to Siliconera in an interview there will be new elements in this version ofCave Story. Amaya pointed out new and old music and Rodriguez said there would be elements from the unreleased Cave Story beta.

Really looking forward to Cave Story 3D, being the huge fan of the original and Wiiware versions that I am!
ReplyDeleteI guess I am just a sucker for the retro sensibility that Pixel reflected in it, as well as the sheer labor of love a game like this would be when you make the whole thing yourself.
Here's to hoping it makes a successful transition into 3D!
