3DS dev costs mirror Wii equivalent

The cost of making a 3D game for Nintendo’s 3DS is significantly higher than doing the same on either the DS or PSP, production studio Marvelous Entertainment has claimed.

By comparison, DS development costs stand at around something between $50k and $500k. For PSP there’s greater variation – somewhere between $36k and $710k.
