DS2 ‘does a lot more’ than the iPhone
Developer impressed with new features
Following hot on the heels of rumours that the DS2 development kit is already in the hands of some of Nintendo’s most trusted partners, an ‘insider from a third-party studio’ has confirmed the rumours to CVG and revealed a little more info on the DS2’s new features.
The unnamed source claims that a ‘handful’ of developers in Japan have the device on a trial basis and that it was the first version of the finished retail product, with the ever-reliable Pokemon Company getting special attention from the big N.
He went on to say that it was ‘genuinely the best thing I think I’ve ever worked with’, claiming that it has ‘a tilt function that’s not dissimilar to the iPhone, but does a lot more.’
The successor to the biggest selling handheld of all-time is not expected to be announced for a good while yet, but we’ll be keeping our eye out for further developments.
