Brian Provinciano from Vblank Entertainment recently appeared on Electric Playground Live to demo and talk about his upcoming multi-platform release, Shakedown Hawaii<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

One of the more interesting parts was when he was asked if it would be possible to run the “open-world comedy” on the Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis (Mega Drive). This was his reply:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cTo be honest, I would love after this game is done to go back and do something like that, I love tinkering with old hardware.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Admittedly, he would be unable to port this game itself to a retro system, but would \u201clove\u201d to build a top-down action game on old school video game hardware.<\/p>\n

In saying this, Provinciano did mention how he managed to get his previous release Retro City Rampage<\/a><\/strong> up and running on the Game Boy Advance:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI actually did get RCR running on the Game Boy Advance and so that was really fun, I haven\u2019t really unveiled it too much, but it was just a hobby\u2026 I\u2019d say it\u2019s 85 percent done, there are a few frame rate hiccups.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/blockquote>\n

When encouraged to actually release it, Provinciano said he would like to get permission to do it officially. It\u2019s also worth pointing out how he worked on a NES prototype for Retro City Rampage way back in 2013.<\/p>\n

To hear and see more about Provinciano\u2019s latest Switch and 3DS-bound release, though, take a look at the below video which runs for over an hour:<\/p>\n
