[cw_sasuke]

I didnt see this coming...lol.

 

[Vic]

Wtf

 

[Living the Dream]

Complete surprise. badass!

 

[WillyFive]

Megaton

 

[Graphics Horse]

that's *new* Nintendo 3DS systems only, which makes sense tbh.

 

[Sephimoth]

This excites me.. and I own it like 5 times already

 

[Serenitynow]

Only the New systems

 

[JigglesBunny]

Wait... what?

How big can a world reasonably be on 3DS unless it's a N3DS exclusive?

that's *new* Nintendo 3DS systems only, which makes sense tbh.

Woop, there it is.

 

[talkingood]

Never thought I'd see this happen. What are they charging for admission to view this curiosity?

 

[BigEmil]

Wait what

 

[Vashetti]

Cool and all for people who want it. I'm surprised they took the time to port it though when the 3DS is near end of life.

 

[Oregano]

Japan could have used that years ago.

 

[Magwik]

Minecraft finally running at it's intended resolution

 

[SystemUser]

Can the topic be altered to say "Nintendo N3DS" specifically?

 

[Graphics Horse]

Minecraft finally running at it's intended resolution

lol

I first played it on a 800x480 phone about 7 years ago, 4x the pixels, bet the n3DS runs better than that version though.

 

[Slick Butter]

Wha... I just started playing for the first time in 4 or 5 years like 4 days ago. But I also just go a Vita. Will 3DS get Better Together?

 

[ilium]

Suprised it took this long tbh

Minecraft finally running at it's intended resolution

Heh.

 

[capylikesgames]

EDIT: Collected some details on the port from the stream:

No multiplayer on launch, but they're looking into it
2016x2016 world size
6-chunk render distance
60fps cap, variable framerate
Based on Pocket Edition 0.15.4

Depending on how much they've cut to get it running, I might actually bite on this. It could be a really good version of the game to have around.

 

[mistuhcahlos]

In 3D?

 

[purseowner]

In 3D?

The million dollar question.

Wow! That's pretty fucking cool.

 

[18-Volt]

Yikes, that fog... I'm still getting though. This is... a quintuple dip?

Now this is the real surprise.

Didn't they announce that they were remaking the C++ engine with Better Together? Is this on that?

I'll buy it again after the patch

 

[Double Donut]

3DS won.

 

[Malakai]

Right after I finally buy it for the Switch right....

 

[The Last One]

Minecraft finally running at it's intended resolution

Ayyyyyy lmao

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Not for the UK I think it said it was available soon

 

[sibarraz]

Your face when Microsoft had a better "unprecedented partnership" with Nintendo than EA

 

[Narpas Sword0]

Topic title needs editing

 

[nelo_inc]

The 3DS has a beast software lineup, good to see Nintendo and other publishers still producing games for it.

 

[Vanillalite]

If you have the choice buy the Switch version!

Right after I finally buy it for the Switch right....

You bought the right version.

I can't stress this enough. The Switch version is in so it's gonna be part of the Better Together Family. This is the version you want if you have a choice.

 

[Akoi]

Out of nowhere..

 

[Rolodzeo]

3DS is knocking it out of the park.

 

[Tambini]

How much?

 

[Fat4all]

its not too bad looking either

this will likely sell extremely well this holiday season

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

I didnt see this coming...lol.

Damn straight!

 

[Frostman007]

In case you guys were interested, my dev studio cohorts are going to be streaming the game on Twitch in a little while. Around 4:00.

twitch.tv/otheroceandev

Apologies if posts like this are not allowed. I'm just happy for them as they worked hard to get it done.

 

[Eolz]

Really wonder how they managed to make it run on 3DS...

Do you know if the game will support cross play?

 

[Agent_Carnage]

I can't find it in the Eshop I have a N3DS

 

[Joey Ravn]

I literally Platinumed it on PS4 today!

... OK, I'll buy it again on N3DS.

 

[Owari]

Do you know if the game will support cross play?

There's no way. It's clearly a completely different build.

 

[Frostman007]

Sorry for the lack of time confirmation. They are getting everything setup right now but should be broadcasting shortly around 4:00pm PST.

 

[hanspampel]

Wow Megatron
Any estimates how big the N3DS install base is?

This seems a little late, but still nice get and should extend the 3DS life by a bit

 

[DeuceGamer]

Should sell really well this holiday.

 

[DownWithTheShip]

Watching the stream. Did they say the worlds were larger than MC on the Wiiu?

Looks like it runs pretty well too
