Epic - 3DS still can't run Unreal Engine 3, but we like Nintendo

GN Version 3.1

“Why do people keep asking about the platforms we don’t love? Nothing’s changed. There’s only so much time in the day; our engine requires a certain level of hardware capabilities to make our pipeline, our tools work — and we work on the ones that do. The second Nintendo releases a piece of hardware that can run our engine well, we’ll be on it like water on fish. There’s nothing against Nintendo. I hate that people somehow think that’s the case. If we felt it could run [Unreal Engine] and deliver the kind of experience people license our technology to build, we’d be on [the 3DS].” - Epic’s Mark Rein

I seriously can still not believe that the 3DS is not capable of running some form of the Unreal Engine 3. I think it would just take time and dedication that Epic doesn’t have.
