A few months ago, Shigeru Miyamoto said that Super Mario Galaxy 2 could have shipped to stores this year. However, Nintendo opted to release New Super Mario Bros. Wii instead. So while it’s a definite that Galaxy 2 will be released next year, it’s just a matter of when.

Well, if the latest rumor is to be believed, the game will be out in Europe in late August 2010. Shigeru Miyamoto told GameTrailers TV back in November that development was nearly finished, so would Nintendo really wait that long to launch the title?

Picross 3D is based on the worldwide popular Picross DS puzzle game. Picross 3D moves the action into three dimensions and blends the logical challenge of a number-based puzzle with the excitement of discovering the hidden images within.

Features:
# Players start with a solid block of cubes marked with numbers on the end of each row. The numbers represent the number of blocks that will remain in that row. If the number five is marked on the end of a row of six blocks, for example, one of those blocks must be eliminated. But which one? Players must deduce the answer based on the numbers marked on other rows.
# Players tap a hammer to eliminate blocks they think don’t belong or use a paintbrush to mark ones they think should stay.
# Once all the appropriate blocks have been chipped away, a fun object will be revealed. There are more than 350 objects to discover in the game.
# Picross 3D lets players create their own customised puzzles. Players can either share their creations with other Picross 3D players via a local wireless connection or use their broadband Internet connection and Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection to submit their puzzles into a monthly contest. Winners will have their puzzles featured in free weekly downloads available to all Picross 3D players.
# If multiple people want to play Picross 3D, game owners can also send a few sample puzzles to others via DS Download Play without the need of a second Game Card.

David Jaffe, the creator of God of War, recently posted some messages on his Twitter account reflecting on what he would change in the series. Of course, the gameplay style of God of War is set in stone and Jaffe no longer works on the franchise. Nonetheless, Jaffe seems to appreciate Zelda and explained that he would mix God of War together with the structure from the Zelda titles on the N64 if he had the chance to make the first game now.

“If I were to do GOW now, I would do GOW meets ZELDA 64 structure. Much more interested in immersive games now vs. scripted experiences…But I think Zelda open world+GOW  puzzles/combat=pretty good mash. Many other games have mash’d that up…Not to imply I don’t love GOW. I DO very much. But I just would not design it the same way now, in 2010.”

Tetsuya Nomura is quite a renowned figure in the gaming industry, perhaps most notably for his contributions to the development of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts titles. Most recently, Nomura has been rather busy with Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, but that’s not all he’s been working on. In the latest edition of Gamega, Nomura told the magazine that an announcement will be made next year regarding a game people have been hoping anticipating. It’s also a game that he has received requests to create. This title is so significant that Nomura believes there will be a big reaction when it is unveiled. Right now, we don’t know whether this is in fact a Wii or DS game and unfortunately we’ll have to until sometime in 2010 for an announcement.
