New Monster Hunter X details: monster variants
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Yesterday’s Famitsu scans featured quite an extensive look at Monster Hunter X. Most of the focus was on monster variants which are, well, variants of existing monsters with different looks and behavior patterns. Adam Evanko AKA Gaijinhunter took an in-depth look at the Famitsu scans in a video which you can find below, but here’s a small overview of the monster variants detailed in the magazine:
- Darkflame Rathalos: lots of airtime and new breath attacks
- Deadly Princess Rathian: focuses on poison attacks
- Crimson Bear Arzuros: characteristic red mane, powerful attacks with his arms
- Fortress Daimyo: high defense, hard to crack
- Bouldercrusher Tetsucabra: berserk, powerful jaw attacks
- Whitegale Nargacuga: really fast, shoots shockwaves when it attacks
- Gold Thunder Zinoger: has undergone an “awakening” and now has powerful homing lightning attacks

Junichi Masuda possibly teases Pokemon-related news in tonight’s Direct
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Rumors | 23 Comments
Junichi Masuda, known for his work on the Pokemon series, just made a tweet in which he’s telling people to watch today’s Nintendo Direct.
Obviously, this might not mean anything. There have been times in the past where a creator, such as Masahiro Sakurai or Soraya Saga of Monolith Soft, tweeted about an upcoming Nintendo Direct which led people to speculate that said Direct would feature news from their respective games, but it didn’t end up happening after all. Still, I figured it was worth pointing out.
Assuming today’s Direct will feature something Pokemon-related, what could it be? Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon seems unlikely since the game is already out in Japan and Masuda probably wouldn’t announce news about it like this to his mostly Japanese Twitter audience. News about the Wii U version of Pokken Tournament are definitely a possibility, however Game Freak was barely involved with the development of that game, which was handled by Bandai Namco instead. Pokemon GO is unlikely since Nintendo have said that the Direct will only feature Wii U and 3DS games. What most people would probably want to see is news about a new mainline Pokemon game, such as the rumoured Pokemon Z. It seems like a foregone conclusion that there will be another 3DS Pokemon game set in the Kalos region, but who knows if it will be announced today.
Either way, we will know for sure in about 12 hours when the Direct airs.

Affordable Space Adventures “Origin Story” update details + screenshots
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
KnapNok Games’ acclaimed Wii U exclusive Affordable Space Adventures is getting a free update with some new content this week. Below you’ll find KnapNok Games’ press release for the update and some screenshots.
Copenhagen, Denmark – June 10th 2015
KnapNok Games and Nifflas’ Games, the developers of the critically acclaimed Affordable Space Adventures for Wii U, are announcing the release of the free Origin Story content update and a temporary discount to celebrate the launch on November 12th 2015.
Origin Story is a set of 5 brand-new levels of Affordable Space Adventures that take players through the hardest areas of the game so far. These unique stages have been designed not only to put players’ skills to the test, but also to get them to think outside the box and make use of all the Small Craft systems in new ways.
This new chapter, available at any moment from the difficulty select screen, is recommended only for those that have already completed the main story and are looking for a new series of puzzling challenges. “We had lots of level ideas that were too difficult to implement as part of the main story”, explains Affordable Space Adventures’ game director Nicklas Nygren. “Origin Story is our way of introducing some of these concepts to those who have already finished the game.”
To celebrate the release of the new update, the developers will be launching a special sale of Affordable Space Adventures on the Nintendo eShop. The sale will drop the price of the game by 20% for 2 weeks starting November 12th 2015 in Europe and Australia, the same day the Origin Story update launches for Wii U™ consoles. America will get both the update and the sale soon after.
The update, which is a remaster of the game rather than a patch, also brings with it several fixes and improvements based upon players’ feedback via social media and the Affordable Space Adventures Miiverse™ community.
“We’d like to reward fans of Affordable Space Adventures with additional content for free”, states KnapNok Games’ CEO Dajana Dimovska. “We heard a lot of people asking for more levels, so our hope is that this update will keep the game alive for them. Likewise, we expect new players to pick up the game after this update and enjoy taking it for a spin.”
Since its release in April 9th, Affordable Space Adventures has been receiving great reviews and recommendations from both the media and customers alike. The highest praised feature is the game’s use of the Wii U GamePad, transforming it into the cockpit of a spaceship and giving players absolute control over the ship’s systems. This allows for the game to be played not only in single player mode, but also as a co-op experience, with players taking over different roles as Pilot, Engineer and Science Officer of the spaceship and requiring good communication between them.
The game has players taking control over the Small Craft, a cheap but functional spaceship provided by the Uexplore corporation, as they crash-land on an alien planet. As the game progresses, the spaceship gains new functions, progressively introducing players to new ways of solving the puzzles they encounter as they find their way out of the planet.
The game currently holds a score of 81 in Metacritic.
