Kaitou Joker game heading to 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Bandai Namco is developing a game based on the Kaitou Joker series for 3DS. It’s scheduled for release in Japan sometime this year.
Kaitou Joker: Time Crossing Phantom Thief and the Lost Gem (take that in for a second) features playing cards and the image gun like Joker in the anime to take on enemies. Players will steal treasure by using acrobatic action and solving puzzles. It’s also possible to collect hidden treasure in levels.
This new Kaitou Joker game will be at the World Hobby Fair. Those who stop by Bandai Namco’s booth can obtain two stickers: one for playing the game, and another for solving a riddle.
Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL can no longer be pre-ordered in Australia/New Zealand, but more stock coming in March
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 3 Comments
We’ve already seen the Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL selling out incredibly quickly at retailers in North America. Demand for the system is high in Australia and New Zealand, too. That means it’s no longer available for pre-order in these two territories, though Nintendo says more stock is coming in March. Be sure to keep track of what’s happening at retailers as there will only be a “limited quantity” of units.
Nintendo wrote on Twitter a few minutes ago:
Due to overwhelming demand, New Nintendo 3DS XL Majora’s Mask Edition is currently unavailable for pre-order in AU/NZ, however…(1/2)

Terra Formars: Fierce Battle on the Crimson Planet character details
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Today’s Terra Formars: Fierce Battle on the Crimson Planet update introduces us to five new characters. Siliconera translated their bios, which can be found below.
Akari Hizamaru:
Michelle K. Davis:
Michelle is the miracle child, who was born with the powers of the Paraponera, which gives her extraordinary strength and durability. She also has the powers of a Blast Ant to blow up the Terraformars.
Shokichi Komachi:
Shokichi gets his powers from that of the Japanese giant hornet. He fights using his twin stingers with poison in both hands, and he also goes berserk, just like the Japanese hornets that are known for its aggression.
Marcos Eringrad Garcia:
Marcos has the powers of a Huntsman Spider, which gives him power, ferocity, and speed. While he may have it all going for him, his endurance is his weakness, which leaves him vulnerable at times.
Keiji Onizuka:
The Peacock Mantis Shrimp is where Keiji gets his powers from. Similar to Michelle, his strength and durability are his best attributes. He can also regenerate his limbs, so losing an arm or leg against the Terraformars shouldn’t be that big of a deal to him.
You can find several new screenshots and art from the game here.

Youkai Watch 2, Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire lead holiday sales in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 3 Comments
According to Media Create, gaming software sales in Japan during the end-of-year holiday period came in at 10.854 million units. The sales tracker calculated end-of-year sales based on the seven weeks from November 17th, 2014 to January 4th, 2015.
Software sales in Japan stacked up similarly to the same period the year prior (100.36% of 2013). Youkai Watch 2 (2.447 million units) and Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire (2.591 million units) accounted for 45 percent of total Japanese software sales during the end-of-year holiday period.
Wii U software sales were 112.95 percent of 2013. It was the only system aside from the 3DS to experience an increase in software sales.
Overall hardware sales on the Japanese market during the end-of-year season stood at 1.74 million units. Hardware decreased to 83.42 percent of the same period from 2013. The 3DS dipped a bit to 93.96 percent of 2013, which could be because most of its popular software sold to existing 3DS owners rather than new buyers.
