Level-5 CEO loves Switch, currently trying to figure out a way to make a Layton work on the platform
The following comes from Level-5 CEO and Layton producer Akihiro Hino...
"I played Zelda. I love the Switch. I think it's amazing hardware. The problem is, the Layton series does a lot with the touchscreen and pointing. So, the problem with the Switch is, if you play on handheld you can do it, but if you put it on the dock... we're trying to figure out how that would play into it."
The best thing I can think of is the pointer controls that World of Goo uses, but those have to be resynced often. Not a big deal for most gamers, but a definitely issue for the casual side of Layton fans. Do you have a better idea?
