Update: Kickstarters open – Comcept, Studio 4°C tease “Red Ash”
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 23 Comments
Update (7/4): Bumped to the top. Red Ash is pretty much what we all thought it’d be – a Mega Man Legends spiritual successor.
There are two Kickstarters going currently – one for the game and one for the anime. The game is the main one we care about, but platforms are unconfirmed aside from PC. So our coverage of Red Ash will be ending unless we hear about any versions for Nintendo platforms.
Comcept and Japanese animation company Studio 4°C are teasing a new project titled “Red Ash”. A debut teaser for the title was uploaded today, and we have it below.
A post on the Mighty No. 9 Kickstarter page reads:
Now what in the world could this be…?
Well…whatever it is, we decided to give our backers a special first look at it!
If you want to know more, you are all just going to have to wait until Independence Day to find out!
We can’t say anything more until then, but we think you get the idea.
Please share this video with all your friends, and help spread the word!
We’ll be hearing more about Red Ash at the Anime Expo this weekend. Keiji Inafune is holding a panel at the event, and he’ll be making a special announcement that “may interest Mega Man fans.” It’s being speculated that Red Ash is a spiritual successor of sorts to the Mega Man Legends series.

Update: Bumped to the top. The Splatfest is now live in Europe.
It’s 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET, so the first Splatfest in Splatoon should now be live in North America. This first event pits cats against dogs. You’ll have until 12 AM PT / 3 AM PT on Sunday to participate.
In Europe, the first Splatfest will begin later today – 6 PM BST / 7 PM CEST. That event has pop music going up against rock music. As is the case in North America, Europe’s first Splatfest also lasts for the full day.

Yuji Horii confirms Dragon Quest VII and VIII for the west during Japan Expo event
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 24 Comments
Update: Just in case there were any doubts about Horii referring to the 3DS games…
Horii actually did mention 3DS for Dragon Quest VII and VIII localization. The translator got upset when he did.
— MakuXV (@RedMakuzawa) July 4, 2015
Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii just wrapped up a conference of sorts at the Japan Expo. At the very end of the event, he supposedly dropped a major bombshell. Horii said that the 3DS remakes Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII will be released “in French”.
That information comes from Twitter user Jérémie Kermarrec, who attended the conference. It’s backed up by fan site Final Fantasy Ring. Earlier today, the site posted an interview with Horii in which he stated that Square Enix is “thinking about” localizing Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII.
Kermarrec spoke with someone from Square Enix once things ended, and was told that Horii sharing the big news wasn’t planned. He nonetheless appears to have confirmed that the 3DS releases of Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII are both coming west.
