Two Tribes Almost Got Nintendo And Valve Working Together For Toki Tori 2+

toki tori 2

In a potential partnership of epic proportions, Toki Tori developer Two Tribes nearly had Nintendo and Valve working together to bring players of Toki Tori 2+ a special level editor. At one point faced with less-than-stellar sales of Toki Tori 2+ on Wii U, Two Tribes decided that they wanted gamers to be able to make their own levels on either platform, while being able to log into Steam and share them through the Workshop.

Apparently Nintendo and Valve were both on board with the idea, but Two Tribes could not bring it all into fruition in time to get it ready for the release of Toki Tori 2+. Alas, the partnership never panned out, but Two Tribes is optimistic that they may return to the idea in the future. Here are comments from the company’s Martijn Reuvers:

“Our dream was basically to let users create levels on whatever platform they’d prefer and that they would be able to share it through Steam Workshop. So we came up with a proposal that would allow Wii U owners of Toki Tori 2+ to login to Steam, so that they could make use of that functionality. Kinda what Valve did with Portal on the PS3. Nintendo and Valve reacted very positively and we had some calls and e-mails with both parties about this proposal.

Unfortunately things like this take time and cannot be implemented overnight. So for Toki Tori 2+, it was too late at that point. However we still are in contact with them, so should things change, we’ll definitely revisit it again.”

  1. valve fanboys = fat greasy nerds who buy almost every game in the steam auction for a penny, so the five developers have to share a penny.

    then when people who dont have enough money to buy something, valve nerds talk shit about them saying that, oohh you have to have your mommy buy it for you, when those fat greasy fags dont have a job and get all there games for 5$ or less. oh and the only reason they could have bought a 1500$ pc in the first place is because their mothers bought it for them and their 30 year old virgins living in their basement still.

        1. Ice ice baby dont go away he multiplies so respond to him now and he might disappear from the face of the nintendo news site. Muw ha ha ha

  2. Nintendo is a good partner to deal with, it is always pleasure to work with them. No suprise Valve and Nintendo were ready to work together, both great companies. Sadly the “SteamConsole” will be left to dust when project Dream2cast comes reality, same goes for all the other consoles.

  3. Man, Nintendo and Valve working together would be cool. Shame Valve are too focused on trying to compete with MS -.- their recent announcements look pretty bad…

      1. I think the entire world would explode.

        Think if they made a crossover game… Metroid x Portal/Half-Life…. AMAZING!

    1. Hey look its the man who hardly knows much about gaming :D I love your comedy series, you are a great comedian, pretending you hate the Wii U and saying facts that aren’t very well backed up :D You are fucking hilarious :D

  5. I personally hope Valve accepts Nintendo as a Steam platform, that would be amazing. I would easily buy the Portal games all over again for my Wii U!

    If they do this, I can see Wii U’s being bundled with Steam cards and external hard drives. That would be amazing!
