Terminal Reality’s Infernal Engine Green-Lighted For 3DS Development

Terminal Reality said Thursday that its multiplatform Infernal Engine — used in titles including Ghostbusters: The Video Game — has been authorized by Nintendo for use in 3DS development.

News of the recent authorization of the Infernal Engine on the handheld comes just over a month before the 3DS' March 27 North American launch.

Nintendo's handheld will sell for $249 in the U.S., with its main distinguishing feature being glasses-free stereoscopic 3D. The device also has multiple cameras and motion and touch controls. Lewisville, TX-based Terminal Reality said it expects to be a"major player" on the platform.
