Several people would feel less bad about rubbing themselves to it?

Shigeru Miyamoto has spoken a little bit about cross-play features for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS in an interview with Kotaku.

"Particularly with digital downloads now and the idea that you're downloading the right to play a game, that opens up the ability to have multiple platform digital downloads where you can download on one and download on another. Certainly from a development standpoint there is some challenge to it, because if you have two devices that have different specs and you're being told to design in a way that the game runs on both devices, then that can be challenging for the developer—but if you have a more unified development environment and you're able to make one game that runs on both systems instead of having to make a game for each system, that's an area of opportunity for us."

Wow, sounds almost like Sony's Cross-buy... except worse. :rolleyes:

I'm now taking bets for how many Nintendo fans will salivate and circle-jerk over this while simultaneously bitching and complaining about Cross-buy and "ports" on the PSVita. :)

:rofl2:

Best part of the interview:

Totilo: It's good to hear you say that, by the way. It's not really a question, but Super Mario Bros. 3 had just been released on Virtual Console in the States on 3DS and Wii U on the same day. You had to pay for it for each download. You couldn't get it for free [on the other platform]...

Miyamoto: Ohhh. That's right. I'm sorry.

Totilo: Maybe you guys can do that differently next time.

Miyamoto: I'll think about it.

Did that "transfer your UMD games to digital download games" thing for the PSP Go ever take off?

UMD Transfer worked in Japan, but it was never released in the west and I don't think it covered all the titles as not all were available on PSN. I'm also pretty sure it was a service for transferring to the PSVita, UMD owners had no reason to grab the PSP Go as it offered no benefits other than Bluetooth and built-in storage (which is why it bombed hard and ultimately the 3000 was more popular).

While I waste no opportunity to criticize the Vita for its many, many flaws, I like the little thing (bless its tiny socks) and I am saddened by these news. I hope it survives.
