As confirmed by Nokia, the old phone is returning with new hardware.
Will we be able to easily develop anything for the beloved phone?

Since the phone was resistant to accidental or intentional drops, it got nicknamed indestructible. Well, you would need to pick the back cover, battery and the front part of the phone from the floor, assemble all of the parts back together, and in general, Nokia 3310 would still be functioning perfectly.
The 3310 3G also runs a Java-based operating system that HMD calls "Smart Feature OS".
Press the Navigation key. To install apps on your phone, you need to insert the memory card into your phone. Select Mobile Store and wait while your phone loads the web page. To install apps on your phone, you need to insert the memory card into your phone.
It comes with an S30 operating system, colored screen, dual-sim, up to 22 hours of talk time, up to 51 hours of MP3 playback and its original game. So what are the games included in the New Nokia 3310? The OS of the phone is based in S30+ of Nokia, so any Java based games should be compatible with the phone.
It was also my first question that came to mind after the unveiling of the new 3310. I was hoping for a nostalgic throwback to mobile java apps.
However, it seems like the OS (s30+) doesn't support J2ME, so definitely no third-party java apps. I guess there might be a slim chance they'd add some kind of app store by the time they release the new 3310, in which case you could develop apps in MRE SDK (maui runtime environment). If I'm not mistaken MRE is in C.

I can’t speak for the 2G version, but the new Nokia 3310 3G does appear to support some J2ME apps. I was able to install the last release of the Google Maps app, a weather app, and an email app that actually appears on the Opera Mini store. Some jads do say they’re not supported (Note Plus 4) and one had the character sets all messed up (Anyview EBook reader).
EDIT: I confirmed that I was able to side load an (untrusted) app I developed (a very long time ago) using Java 2 Micro Edition SDK.
