Grasshopper teases 3DS development
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
This information comes from Grasshopper Manufacture’s Facebook page…
“No, no information on a sequel to Contact now. We’re not working on any games for Nintendo’s older portable systems. ;-)… 3DS? What’s that? ;p”
Obviously, nothing was said explicitly. But it does seem as though they’re hinting at 3DS development! It wouldn’t be too surprising, as Suda51, the company’s CEO, has expressed interest in the platform.
THQ: First round of uDraw sales promising, more software until at least 2012

This information comes from Wayne Cline, director of product development for THQ’s Kids, Family and Casual division…
“Our early reports are looking very promising, and I know we’re doing very well at Walmart, Best Buy and Toys R Us — outlets like that. And we’re getting really good first-look feedback from a lot of things like parenting magazines and such. It’s looking very positive. We got a SKU plan going on through 2012 calendar. Our next batch of software we’ll be releasing in 2011. We haven’t announced anything yet, but rest assured we don’t intend this to be a one-holiday, one-trick pony.”
I honestly didn’t know if uDraw would perform well sales-wise. I wasn’t sure if consumers would embrace the idea, even though it is a unique peripheral. It’ll be interesting to see how the sales are over the long haul, but at least fans can look forward to more software next year, as well as 2010.

The picture above most definitely features parasites or Leviathan Infants. Look out for it when you play through level 6-7 in Donkey Kong Country Returns!
