Cave Story remake announced for 3DS

[RupeeClock]

Pictured: The starting cave remade in 3D (possibly not final)
It's official: Cave Story, the 2D indie darling that started life as a free PC game in 2004, is headed to the 3DS. And not as a downloadable, depth-of-field-enabled version of itself, either – Cave Story 3D, announced today by publisher NIS America, will be a full-fledged remake of the original, with new content, character designs and fully 3D visuals. To get the full story, GR editors Mikel Reparaz and Brett Elston were privileged to sit down with Cave Story's creator, Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya (who developed the original by himself, and whose website features lots of cool, free stuff), and its producer/music director Tyrone Rodriguez, to talk about Cave Story, the 3DS and what exactly drives a man to spend five years creating a massive, retro-styled adventure.[/p]

Yeah, it's a good game, but I was expecting a sequel.

How many remakes does the 3DS have announced by now?

EDIT: The picture means it'll be published by NIS America on NA.

Well that's how the DS started when it came out...Give it time

 

[BloodyFlame]

The graphics reminds me of Okami.

 

[raulpica]

Yesss! Awesome!

This one is a must-have! I do hope that it'll be in 2.5D

Otherwise the entire game will just get killed

 

[SylvWolf]

Oh hell yes. Cave Story's awesome, so this should be a big thing when the 3DS comes out. It'd be nice if it came with a 2D-sprite version (possibly the DSi version) as a bonus, but that's probably just wishful thinking. Great news anyway!

It's not a random number, it's just for emphasys. I really have finished this game many, many, MANY times now. And on different consoles:
PSP, PC, Wiiware... DSiware and now this are the only ones I haven't finished yet.

Anyway, there are some great aspects on this announcement:

Not a Joke: Cave Story Being Remade for 3DS

Wait just a minute. NIS America is publishing (and Nicalis is developing) a remake of Cave Story, and it's going to have 3D graphics presented on a 2D plane with the 3DS' depth-of-field wizardry in mind? That sounds like too incredible a thing to happen. But let me assure you, it most certainly is on the way.

GamesRadar has the news, and an interview with Cave Story creator Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya and producer/music director Tyrone Rodriguez. There are two major quotes I want to point out.

The first, from Rodriguez: "We've added a couple of things that Daisuke and I have gone over, as far as some secrets and some Easter eggs that are going to make some of the original fans really happy, and it'll also add some longevity for the game for anybody who's playing it, and sees these grand new areas that we're adding, as well."

And, here's the one we've all been waiting for. "It's now been 10 years since the original Cave Story came out, so I'm now thinking that maybe it's time to start thinking about a sequel for Cave Story," says Pixel. "There's a very, very good chance we'll see a sequel."

Sequel?? You wanted to say... a port, right?
There's no sequel for cave story as far I know.
