Developer Insight

Yoshiki Sugiyama, game developer responsible for Dynasty Warriors DS, was recently interviewed by Game Developer magazine and talked about the upcoming DS game. Also other game developers talked about how easy the DS is to develop for.

"'The DS can't do the higher quality graphics, so the 3D models are pretty tough. As a result we decided to make a game that's simpler looking, and plays simpler too.'"
"'The library Nintendo provided allows us to do various things, so we're satisfied. The DS is more prepared, so it's easier to develop for at this stage.'"
said Yoshiki Sugiyama

"'Oh, it's easy [to develop for]. It's a very interesting piece of hardware. The touch pad is really new though, and our game also uses the mic, so that was a small challenge,'"
Yuji Naka of Sega Sammy's Sonic Team

Easy development for the DS is a really good thing, as developers will then want to develop more the DS. Simple gameplay is also a good thing, less hasle and so forth. Although the Dynasty Warriors game won't have the highest possible graphics expect this game to look good, play well, and be awesome. Many people are waiting for this game and can't wait to have it. Hopefully we'll have more info on Dynasty Warriors soon.
