Development Assistance[edit]

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[edit]

According to Vitei founder Giles Goddard, in an interview with MinnMax, the studio had a Switch version of Tank Troppers ready but Nintendo ultimately passed on it. Goddard also mentioned that Vitei’s rendering engine is what would have made the Switch version possible. The technology was multiplatform where it could be easily scaled which allowed the team to dial back the resolution if needed.185.32.8.34 (talk) 05:57, 31 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
