Nintendo is now able to provide Autodesk Gameware technology to Wii U developers through a license agreement, according to Autodesk, Inc.

The licensing agreement allows Nintendo to distribute three of Gameware's development tools to Wii U developers. Autodesk Scaleform is used for user interface development, Autodesk Kynapse is used for artificial intelligence, and Autodesk HumanIK is for interactive character animation.

"Adopting Autodesk Gameware helps streamline the production process, freeing more resources for innovation in new areas," Autodesk senior vice president Marc Petit said. "This shift in development focus will help make the next-generation of titles more compelling than the last."
