Speaking with GameSpot, Pokkén Tournament developers Katsuhiro Harada and Masaaki Hoshino said it was cost, not hardware limitations, preventing a release on 3DS.
“It’s definitely a challenge to get it on the Wii U with what we’re doing right now,” Hoshino said. “And it definitely would be a challenge to have the same graphical experience on the 3DS.”
That said, the pair thought it was possible — at a cost.
“Programmer does not need technology. Programmer needs budget,” Harada concluded.
The arcade fighter will soon be available on Wii U.
