7th Dragon III Code: VFD will be arriving in North America this summer. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been any news for European gamers, and there’s still not a whole lot new to report.
SEGA did address the RPG’s European status in a new video posted today. The company’s Dan Sheridan mentioned that there are currently no plans to bring 7th Dragon III Code: VFD to Europe, but added: “There’s nothing we can confirm today, but we are looking to see if it’s something we can make happen.”
Here’s the video in question:

Impressive Super Mario Maker level has a fight against “Bowzilla”
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
A new user-made Super Mario Maker level has been making the rounds as of late. It’s very impressive (at least in my eyes), so I felt it was worth sharing. One particular section has players fleeing from a creature known as “Bowzilla”, which is arguably the highlight of the course.
Here’s a look at “Super Mario Vs Mecha Bowzilla” by KiavikView:
If you want to play the course for yourself, you can find it on the Super Mario Maker Bookmark site here.

Nintendo announces new Articles of Incorporation, setting up for new businesses
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 47 Comments
Today, Nintendo announced new Articles of Incorporation. Although the document may seem like a bunch of confusing mumbo jumbo, there is actually a purpose to it all.
These new Articles of Incorporation are a means for Nintendo to set itself up for new businesses. Medical and health devices, “computer software”, managing/investing in “eating establishments”, and IP licensing are all mentioned. Specifics were not detailed, though Kantan Games CEO Dr. Serkan Toto believes it may partially refer to Nintendo’s quality of life initiative or theme park plans.
The Articles of Incorporation go into effect on June 29. That’s the same day as Nintendo’s 76th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 2 Comments
Level-5 recently updated the Japanese website for Yo-kai Watch 3. Plenty of information is included on the different pages.
Nathan Adams’ story is in the USA. Here, he meets a boy named Mack who has some great skills. Apparently Mack is the kid in this country who can also actually see yo-kai by himself.
Inaho’s story is in Japan, and she forms a Yo-kai detective agency that aims to solve Yokai-related problems. There are also various plans like building a rocket. New bosses will be appearing in Japan as well.
The stories between the USA and Japan are also connected. Mysteries that happened in the USA are being reported in the Mystery Magazine Nu in Japan, so people there can also follow what’s happening in the USA.

M2 president interested in seeing Alien Syndrome as a 3D Classic
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, General Nintendo, News | 7 Comments
There’s a new interview on SEGA’s website with Yosuke Okunari, Kagasei Shimomura, and Naoki Horii. The three developers spoke about the SEGA 3D Classics Collection, which you can read in full right here. One section in particular is worth mentioning specifically.
Shimomura brings up some of the game ideas that were considered before Power Drift was settled on. That eventually leads Horii to say that he wants to see Alien Syndrome realized as a 3D Classic in the future. Adding to this, the team “did a little test on it to see how it would turn out and it was great.” It’s just that there would be a significant amount of effort doing that for all stages.
Here’s the complete interview excerpt:
KS: So rewinding a little bit, before we settled on Power Drift, we had a couple of titles to choose from for this. We talked about Alien Syndrome, Golden Axe, Turbo Out Run, and even Columns.
NH: (looks at the lineup list) These are pretty bold choices.
– I’d like to see Alien Syndrome someday. Stereoscopic 3D would be really effective in that game.
NH: Oh that game is amazing. We did a little test on it to see how it would turn out and it was great. Although, doing every single stage would be quite an effort.
