3DS owners can rejoice to know that there are some good, classic titles coming their way, some are retro and some are just plain old classics like Rollercoaster Tycoon that require a much needed release onto current systems and what better platform to arrive on than the Nintendo 3DS!

“RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D marks the return of one of the most popular game franchises and delivers an innovative, robust and unrestricted theme park simulator to the next generation of Tycoon fans,” said Jim Wilson, CEO of Atari.


Here’s what you can expect to be featured in the handheld version:

  • Complete creative freedom with intuitive and streamline controls
Fully enjoy the features that made the beloved series popular: a deep coaster construction system and robust theme park customisation.  Design the wildest, most imaginative roller coasters through the “Coaster Creator” option using a user-friendly, touchscreen toolset and a wide array of upgrade possibilities and themes at your disposal.
  • A deep and immersive management simulation experience
The world of RollerCoaster Tycoon isn’t just about creating roller coasters; managing theme parks is paramount to keeping finances flowing to build even more!  This latest installment takes the demanding management simulation from the series and compresses it into a handheld form, creating a challenging yet manageable take on the genre for players of all ages.
  • New gameplay mode with special unlockable content

Completely new to the series is the “Coaster Story” mode, which blends together tutorials and park challenges into a cohesive and entertaining narrative.  Choose your own player character and set off on a journey around the world to expand your roller coaster empire.  As you progress, you’ll unlock tons of unique attractions, themes, amenities and more.

  • Jump straight into “Park Sandbox” mode and take control

Players who want to get right into the action can quickly jump into the open-ended “Park Sandbox” mode and play RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D the classic way, where the only thing that matters is just how far you can take your own theme park.  With the advanced networking capabilities of Nintendo 3DS, sharing your park creations is now easier than ever!
