Australian in-your-face talking mammal news now, with the developer behind the TY the
Tasmanian Tiger series of platformers joining a recent popular trend by praising the Nintendo
Revolution and vaguely promising to, at the very least, think about developing for
it. In an interview with Aussie Nintendo, creative director for Krome Studios, Steve Stamatiadis, mentions
that TY may very well end up on Nintendo's next-gen console, what with it being so personally intriguing."Personally I'm intrigued by the Revolution - I like that Nintendo is taking a different approach to how people play games and is aiming for a wider audience. Though, I don't like the fact that it means cross platform games like the TY the Tasmanian Tiger series will be much harder to develop on Next Gen consoles."
If you can take your mind off the excitement generated by the continuing adventures of the fuzzy, all-encompassing Australian stereotype, you may notice that the man manages to raise an interesting point. By being considerably different than the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3, the Revolution may find itself at a disadvantage when it comes to multi-platform titles, if only because lazy developers may opt not to adapt their existing code to function with Nintendo's outlandish controller. Of course, there's no reason to think that the opposite might not happen either: A developer may very well skip the other two consoles instead of modifying their established Revolution control scheme.
