DuckTales NES prototype discovered, contains unused music track
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
The Cutting Room Floor, and outlet known for discovering and documenting scrapped content from games, recently got its hands on a DuckTales prototype for the NES. There are plenty of differences compared to the final product, all of which are outlined here. The prototype also comes with a rather neat find: an unused music track.
The piece in question is the stage select screen. Kotaku points out that “the track that made it into the official DuckTales release is more mysterious and repetitive” whereas “the prototype song is upbeat and adventurous in the way you’d expect from a game based on a children’s cartoon.”
Here’s the full piece from the prototype:

Nintendo replacing its multiplayer server system that is almost two decades old
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Update: We now have further clarification on the multiplayer system (thanks Dan). NEX is about twenty years old, though Nintendo itself has been using it for about ten years. The tech, which was created by Quazal, was called Rendez-Vous. Ubisoft bought them out in 2010, and Nintendo then licensed it and renamed it “NEX” soon after.
Original: Since the Wii U and 3DS days, Nintendo has been using something called “NEX” for its multiplayer server system. Almost all games have been tied to it for online functionality. Now though, the company is looking to make a major change.
We’re hearing reports that Nintendo is shifting from NEX to a different system, “NPLN”. Monster Hunter Rise is apparently the first very title to make use of it in public. According to Twitter user thomasnet_mc, NPLN is in a preview phase at the moment, and the Monster Hunter demo allowed Nintendo to see how it performed under load.

Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
As revealed today by Nintendo’s financial results, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield have sold over 20 million units. In doing so, they’ve become the first entries since Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver to reach that mark. Sword and Shield have currently sold 23.73 million copies.
Sword and Shield should eventually overtake Gold and Silver as the second best-selling Pokemon games of all time. Red/Blue/Green would be more difficult to surpass as those titles have collectively sold 31.38 million copies.
Here’s a look at the Pokemon series sales for all mainline titles:
