Development Assistance

I'm sorry but it doesn't make sense to subjectively label Nintendo's development efforts as "development assistance" for this game. Nintendo is an auteur here, not a subcontractor or a helper. The only 2 producers, the lead game director, all the character art and all the music and sound. This is how Sugiyama's EPD group and Vitei have been developing games together since Steel Diver - Goddard mentions this in the Nindori interview again JapanGames (talk) 22:31, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Switch version

According to Vitei founder Giles Goddard, in an interview with MinnMax, the studio had a Switch version of Tank Troppers all ready but Nintendo ultimately passed on it. Goddard also mentioned that Vitei’s rendering engine is what would have made the Switch version possible. Since the technology was multiplatform, the game can be easily scaled. It allows the team to dial back the resolution when needed (which was done on 3DS) or bump it up to high-res (which could have been done on Switch). In addition, for some unknown reason, Nintendo also removed a multiplayer mode from the 3DS game prior to release.--185.32.8.34 (talk) 05:57, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
