Posted on 7 years ago by Jake in 3DS, News | 15 Comments
Update: There is now a picture of the actual amiibo, seen now as the feature image and in the gallery.
Capcom announced that Monster Hunter Stories, the 3DS Monster Hunter spinoff, will be releasing in Japan on October 8th. Also, there will be three brand-new amiibo launched alongside the game. Two of these are of the protagonist riding the One-Eyed Rathalos, with one amiibo for each gender, while the third is of the player’s partner, Nabiru. These amiibo will grant players unique monsters in-game. Furthermore, Capcom plans to release a second set of amiibo after release. There are also two special costumes for Nabiru, with a Rathalos costume coming in limited versions of the game, and a Dinovaldo costume unlocked by having Monster Hunter Generations save data on your 3DS. This save data will also unlock a one-hand sword for the protagonist.
But that’s not all! Capcom also showed off two costumes, one for the protagonist based on popular musician DAIGO, and the other a costume for Nabiru based on Sanrio character Pompomporin. You can see pictures of all this content below.
The official site will also update on June 2nd, so there may be more new information to look forward to in the future. There is still no word on a western release.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 2 Comments
Capcom still has some information to share on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice. In today’s update, the company touches on the “Revisualization” system, returning from Dual Destinies.
Here’s the breakdown:
– When the courtroom battle reaches its final stage and it seems you need another step to fully grasp hold of the truth, a “Revisualization” is triggered to reach a decisive conclusion
– You’re allowed to review the facts revealed in the court up until that point
– Seek out a route that leads to the truth while organizing events
– Select the correct route using logical reasoning
– It’s possible to review again any number of times to reach the truth if you make an error
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice launches on June 9 in Japan and this September in the west.

Capcom has announced the first bit of DLC that will come to Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice, although the announcement is currently for Japan only. The “Turnabout that Crosses Time” will be a plotline that takes place after the story of the regular game (and will not even be playable until the main story is completed). The DLC will launch June 30th, and it will actually be free for players until July 21st. It is also described as a complete volume, containing investigation and courtroom sections, and starring Phoenix Wright, Maya Fey, Miles Edgeworth, and Phoenix’s childhood friend, Larry Butz.
The DLC will also be given an introduction during a livestream later today, which can be viewed here. If any important info comes of this stream, we’ll let you know.
Capcom expects to sell 2 million copies of a Monster Hunter game, not Monster Hunter Stories
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 13 Comments
Capcom CEO Kenzo Tsujimoto recently made an interesting Monster Hunter-related comment as part of the company’s latest financial results.
Tsujimoto mentioned that due to business reasons, Capcom can’t talk about its entire lineup yet for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017. However, aside from the already-revealed titles Monster Hunter Stories, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice, and Resident Evil Umbrella Corps, the publisher also has plans for some sort of Monster Hunter game that is expected to sell around two million copies (plus two more new titles that would sell four million and two million copies each). Capcom’s primary titles for this period are set to be announced in the latter half of the fiscal year.
The big point we’re interested in concerns the mystery Monster Hunter game. Some had speculated Monster Hunter Stories was the title Capcom is looking to sell two million copies of, but now we know it’s something else entirely. What could it be?
