Game Freak talks Pokemon – Alola Forms and potential return, series’ future, more
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 59 Comments
Game Freak’s Junichi Masuda recently made some comments about Pokemon and Switch during an interview with Spanish site MeriStation which gained quite a bit of attention. However, we thought the entire interview might be worth sharing, as it’s interesting in its own right. And thankfully, Nintendo Everything reader Gumbatei was up to the task of translating the comments into English.
Masuda, along with Shigeru Ohmori, talked a fair amount about Pokemon Sun/Moon and the series in general. The two talked about Alola Forms and whether they’ll return, the future of the franchise, and more. A question was also asked about potential Pokemon Diamond/Pearl remakes, but the response is about what you’d expect.
Head past the break for the translated comments from Masuda and Ohmori.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 9 Comments
Even though Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon arrived in November, a new guide is being prepared for the two games. This one, called the “Alola Region Pokedex & Postgame Adventure Guide”, is scheduled for February.
Here’s the synopsis:
“If getting all the Pokemon from the Alola region is your goal, or if you simply want the latest info on all these amazing Pokemon, then Pokemon Sun & Pokemon Moon: The Official Alola Region Collector’s Edition Pokedex & Postgame Adventure Guide will be your go-to for the info you need!
And if you think you’ve done everything there is to do in the Alola region, then think again! Many adventures are waiting for you after you’ve completed the main story in Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, and this guide will take you through them—including the appearance of the mysterious Ultra Beasts!”
The new Pokemon Sun/Moon guide includes data for the Alola region Pokemon plus information on moves, abilities, location, stats, and Evolutions for each one. You can also expect lists of TMs, items, Berries, and Z-Crystals—including where to find them. Finally, an exclusive creator interview will be included.
Amazon is listing two versions of the guide. You can pick up the standard version or collector’s edition. By going with the collector’s edition, you’ll get the hardcover as well as “8 high-quality double-sided lithographs of concept artwork in a protective sleeve”.

Nintendo files new trademark for Eternal Darkness in the U.S.
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, General Nintendo, News | 24 Comments
On Tuesday, Nintendo filed a new trademark application for Eternal Darkness in the United States. It was then officially published yesterday.
This actually isn’t the first time we’ve seen a trademark pertaining to Eternal Darkness. The filing we heard about a few years ago is still in place, though only until the end of the year. When that happens, Nintendo will need to provide a Statement of Use if the company doesn’t want the application will be abandoned. There are also slight differences between the new and old Eternal Darkness trademarks.
You never quite know what you’ll get with these trademarks. This one had a 1B filing, meaning it’s an application based on intent to use. That doesn’t mean Eternal Darkness is getting a sequel though. Nintendo could be looking to protect the name, or could be interested in something like a Virtual Console release.

Kevin Bayliss left a huge mark on Rare during his nearly 20-year run at the studio. As a designer and art director, he contributed to Donkey Kong Country, Diddy Kong Racing, Star Fox Adventures, and much more.

The topics we’re mainly interested in focus on Nintendo specifically. Bayliss commented on the process of redesigning Donkey Kong for Donkey Kong Country, the initial changes that Star Fox Adventures went through, meeting Shigeru Miyamoto, and more.
We’ve included Bayliss’ comments below. You can pick up GamesTM now for the full interview.

Futuridium EP Deluxe disappears from the eShop
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, New Nintendo 3DS, News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Futuridium EP Deluxe made it to the Wii U eShop in May. Then in September, MixedBag Games published a New 3DS release. Strangely, both versions have now disappeared.
Reader TruExtent informed us about the situation this week. Unfortunately, it’s not entirely clear why Futuridium EP Deluxe has been pulled from the eShop.
TruExtent called Nintendo a few days ago, and was told that Futuridium EP Deluxe was taken down from the eShop on November 9. Apparently it had something to do with a license expiring, but specifics weren’t shared. It’s currently unclear if and when Futuridium EP Deluxe will return. We’ve tried reaching out to MixedBag Games, but have not heard back from the studio.
