After our one-shot with Miyamoto, we’re returning to the “choose your own” adventure we started with Ted a couple of weeks ago. We asked you guys to help us in deciding where to take the comic, and the winning submission was… Bowser, as suggested by Jordan Fricks. We ultimately selected Bowser as we felt it would work best with the story.

Here’s the second part of the comic (click for full size):

And now we want your feedback again! Which Nintendoverse should Ted and Bowser end up in? Let us know in the comments below, and we’ll be back soon with the next part of the story!

This past week, Okami celebrated its 10th anniversary. Hideki Kamiya, who acted as director on the game, shared a few words on his Twitter account in honor of the milestone.

Kamiya tweeted out the following:

Even though ten years have passed, I’ve still been receiving congratulatory messages and requests for a sequel, so as a developer I couldn’t ever be happier than now… I’m grateful to everyone who has been supporting Okami, and also to Capcom for giving a chance to send it out to the world, while at the same time I also hope from my sincerest heart that someday I could fulfill the duty to draw the continuation of the journey of Amaterasu and co. …

…but everyone’s expectations have been swelling so much that they’re going to burst, so even if I were to make a sequel I don’t have even a pixel of confidence that it could surpass the original…

I’m very happy that Capcom came out with Okamiden a few years back, but a proper sequel with Kamiya at the helm would be a dream come true. We need to make it happen… somehow!

Excite Truck developer Monster Games has been working on a new project since at least February of last year which includes both “Career” and “Championship” modes. That’s according to the LinkedIn profile of Joshua Ruis, a software engineer at the studio. This find is sparking speculation that a new racer or perhaps a sports title could be in development.

Monster Games has only made Nintendo titles since 2006. In addition to Excite Truck, the company created Excitebots: Trick Racing, Excitebike: World Rally, and Pilotwings Resort along with the Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D ports.

In North America and Europe, Splatoon’s 13th Splatfest has now drawn to a close. So who came out on top: Team SpongeBob or Team Patrick?

SpongeBob’s side scored a win in terms of popularity with 57 percent of the vote. However, because those who were on Team Patrick had more wins (55 percent), they took home the overall victory. The final score was 373 points for Patrick and 327 points for SpongeBob.
