Mercury Steam has been talking up its love of Nintendo's 3DS.

At iDÉAME, a Nintendo-hosted event held in Spain in the last few weeks, studio owner Enric Alvarez talked of how much freedom the 3D effect gave him.

"It felt like knocking an old barrier down...I first thought about Descent and Quake; it's like those times when you first discovered a new sense of freedom."

After being questioned about his appreciation of 3D, Alvarez exampled how during development of Lords of Shadow his team created a 3D PC demo to test out the technology. "Although it was primitive, we all said 'wow', because you could tell which glow worms were just some centimetres from you, and which were ten meters in the depth".

However, he wouldn't confirm whether Mercury Steam was currently working on any 3DS titles, but said the studio was interested in the console and would explore every option.
