Glitch App for 3DS/DSi?

Was thinking just the other day, maybe someone somewhere out there outside the minds of the Giants could  possibly come up with an app for the 3DS/DSi?

Interface issues aside (although, i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard - A button for selection, touch screen to select things too, B button to cancel. Top screen to display game, bottom screen to display inventory. L/R to use Eyeballery / Screenshotting, etc....) I still think it would be a feasible idea.

What do all you other Glitchen think?

  • I would absolutely adore being able to play Glitch on my DSi.  I don't think it would work though as the DSi web browser doesn't support Flash.

  • that's why i said app, rather than compatibility.
    a fully functioning interface app :)

  • I didn't think the DSi could do those.

  • To be fair the devs are doing the ports for arcane proprietary consoles chronologically. The Sega Saturn port is in development ATM.

    No, seriously, why would TS put that much effort into a proprietary port? They've plenty on their plate already.

  • All I ask is for an eyeballey button so the game is completely playable on a tablet.

  • @ diaveborn: I think OP is referring to the downloadable titles available in the DS download store.

  • Muncey: Ahh.  I didn't think of those since they wouldn't (as far as I know) sync with gameplay online (here).

  • I believe they've built Glitch in a way that it doesn't rely to any technique/medium. In the future it would be awesome to have Glitch clients on various platforms, imagine players from pc/mac, mobile, consoles, all together in one world. I think it could be awesome. And asking money for an app/client would be fair. I think even regular web-based Glitch players would be happy to buy clients for their owned platforms.

  • It'll appear on the iOS platform before it appears on the DSi/3DS platform.

  • Hopefully. Err, I mean probably ;)

  • i dunno. I reckon, with just a little coding, it could be released for the DSi platform....
    They've developed it for a web based platform, which ok is flash based, but could they do a java based version for mobile platforms? With reduced graphics? Maybe?

  • The game is nearly entirely usable on any flash-enaled touch screen of any size, but there are enough features you can't do without a keyboard to make it a pain to be used only when needed.

  • iOS will be first I think, I hope anyway - would be awesome on iPad.
