Kirby 3D Volume 2

Posted on 12 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Videos | 0 comments


Developers and publishers have, for the most part, been positive when speaking about Wii U. But one studio that won’t be working on the console is Just Add Water.

Just Add Water is responsible for PSN’s Gravity Crash and the recently released Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD.

When CEO Stewart Gilray was asked about the console, he said that he’s “currently” not interested in working with Nintendo or on the Wii U itself. Gilray believes that only Nintendo-published games succeed on the company’s platforms, and Nintendo has a “crazy regard to IP and refuse to sign NDAs with indie-developer/publishers”.

“Well, we’ve already announced versions of Stranger and Munch for the Vita, but with regards to Nintendo, currently I’m not interested in working with them, or on their platform. Having developed a number of titles over the years for their various platforms, it’s become increasingly apparent that unless you are published by Nintendo you don’t tend to do very well.

“They also have this crazy regard to IP and refuse to sign NDAs with indie-developer/publishers, leaving us small guys open to having our ideas stolen with no recourse. We have already looked at doing some stuff on iOS and all I can say is watch this space.”

The second Theatrhythm Final Fantasy demo goes live in Japan on Wednesday.


Genius Sonority, the developer behind numerous Pokemon titles including Pokemon Colosseum, Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness, and Battle & Get! Pokemon Typing DS, has announced a brand new title for the eShop. The company will be bringing “Denpa Ningen RPG” to the Japanese store next Wednesday. It’ll cost 800 yen.

Curious as to what Denpa Ningen RPG is all about? Read on below for the first details!

– Denpa Ningen (“electric wave person”) are little critters which exist alongside the electric waves that float around you every day
– Use the 3DS to capture the Denpa Ningen
– Create a team to rescue an important person from the demon king
– Different types of Denpa Ningen
– Some have elemental properties which can be discerned based off their color
– Some Denpa Ningen have antennas
– Antennas indicate special abilities
– Body size of the Denpa Ningen is related to HP, attack strength, and speed
– Make a varied party before entering dungeons

I might be wrong about this, but I believe Denpa Ningen RPG will be the first eShop game to receive a demo. A trial will hit the Japanese eShop tomorrow.

You can find the game’s website here.
