Rage of the Gladiator started off as a WiiWare exclusive before moving on to iOS and Android. More than three years following the original game’s launch, it now appears that it’s coming back to a Nintendo system.

We recently came across a PEGI rating for Rage of the Gladiator on the 3DS. This is also backed up by a similar rating over at the USK. Gamelion hasn’t announced Rage of the Gladiator for the eShop, but it seems as though a release on the 3DS is planned.


Mighty No. 9 may end up heading to not one, but two Nintendo systems.

A Wii U version will be created if Kickstarter funds reach $2.5 million, which is a real possibility at this point. Mighty No. 9 may also be considered for 3DS depending on feedback and if the team “can make the money work”.


Hey: perhaps Renegade Kid could handle a 3DS port. Co-founder Jools Watsham certainly seems to be interested:

SteamWorld Dig has been out for a few weeks now. How have the game’s sales been?

While we don’t have specific figures, Polygon reports that Image & Form is “extremely pleased with how Steamworld Dig has ascended”.

Co-founder Brjann Sigurgeirsson told the site:

“Economically, suffice it to say it’s not been bad, but I’m sure it’ll be even better,” Sigurgeirsson said. “You always hope to sell as much as possible on day one, but very few were prepared for us ‘slamming in from the side.’ Unknown dev/pub, unknown IP; people will need to hear and read about the game a couple of times before getting it.”

Image & Form previously confirmed that a new SteamWorld game is planned. According to Sigurgeirsson, the studio has already “come pretty far” in terms of deciding on the direction of the project.

“We’re talking about the next installment in the SteamWorld series, and we’ve come pretty far. We have a number of options. All of them look fun.”

You can find even more about the rise of SteamWorld Dig over at Polygon.

SteamWorld Dig developer Image & Form has some kind of announcement in the pipeline. And it will be big, apparently. We don’t know what Image & Form has planned, though we’ll be hearing about it “soon.”

The company posted the following message on Twitter a few hours ago:

BikeRiderDX_Logo


The #1-ranking Japan eShop game Bike Rider DX is now available in the North American eShop. Let’s see just what makes this game hailed as “the one-button platformer” such a big hit.


System: Nintendo 3DS
Release Date: August 1st, 2013 (NA) – August 15th, 2013 (EU)
Developer: Spicysoft
Publisher: Spicysoft


Author: Spencer

As far as gameplay goes, Bike Rider DX is quite simple. You control a stick figure riding a bike on 2D plane while jumping onto platforms and over gaps and obstacles,. The bike rides automatically, so the only real control is pressing the A button to jump. You can also double-jump, as indicated by one of the loading screen tooltips (of which there are only two, due to the simplicity of this game), and even triple-jump if timed correctly, although I found this out completely by accident. Optionally, you can use left and right on the directional pad to adjust your bike’s position on the screen, which is helpful for this game as it is for the most part about timing jumps from platform to platform. You complete each course by reaching the finish pole, and you fail courses by falling into pits or crashing into walls or obstacles.

One-button gameplay might work in a game with more depth, involvement, or variety– like Kirby Air Ride, which had several different gameplay modes, objectives, maps, etc– but in a game where you are simply jumping over holes on 2D maps where the only real variance is the aesthetics, it just comes off as monotonous and repetitive.


Librica plans to release even more manga on the 3DS in Japan. Series such as Dragon Ball and Monster Hunter will be available starting on September 4.

Below is the full lineup:

Dragon Ball Color Version 1-4 (1,150 on sale at launch, usually 1,800 yen)
Magical Lyrical Nanoha ViVid Volumes 1-5 (2,950 yen)
Monster Hunter: Hunter of Flash Volumes 1-4 (2,250 yen)
Neon Genesis Evangelion Volumes 1-5 (2,850 yen)
Zekkyo Gakkyu Volumes 1-10 (3,500 yen)
