With Splatoon’s visual style, Nintendo wanted to do something “different” from the competition.

“Shooters have tended to become more realistic, but it’s not Nintendo’s way to do that,” legendary video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto told EDGE this month. “It’s [got] to be different from what other folks are doing.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Miyamoto touched on shooters in general. While Nintendo may not visit these types of games on a regular basis, Miyamoto said he likes their controls and he wouldn’t say that he’s not interested in the genre.

Miyamoto’s comments in full:

Activision has a new singing title coming to Wii U, Wii, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. “The Voice: I Want You” will be released on October 21, according to a listing on Amazon.

Amazon’s listing states:

The Voice video game brings all the excitement of the hit TV show to your living room. From the Blind Auditions, to the Battle Rounds, all the way to the Finale, experience the TV show with the ultimate goal of being named “The Voice.”

The Voice: I Want You will include “chart-topping hits spanning Rock, R&B, Pop and Country”. Party Mode supports up to eight people, and there’s a Voice Coach Mode in which you’ll “learn tips and techniques to help improve your performances including breathing, singing runs and harmonizing”.

Today’s episode of Pokémon Get?TV featured new footage from Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

Earlier today, concept art from a supposed Next Level Games-made Metroid prototype surfaced. We weren’t too sure if the images were real, but Destructoid has since verified their authenticity.

Destructoid also spoke “to a trusted source related to the project”. The site was told the following:

“Yes that is real. That’s the first I’d actually seen of that concept art, but a prototype was made before being shelved in favor of Luigi’s Mansion 2. It was about as bare-bones as it gets, but it was still pretty fun.”

Bandai Namco has shared new screenshots from Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle. The images showcase multiplayer and the key Tenkai Knight technique called Robofusion.

Robofusion is as follows:

Robofusion is a higher level of shapeshifting that occurs only when Tenkai energy is perfectly in sync to produce a robot form that is bigger and much more powerful than any single robot unit. The legendary Tenkai Knights will be able to enter Robofusion mode with an ally to combine powers for a limited amount of time during battle and utilize a combination of attacks depending on which ally they are fused with to overpower the enemy’s brutal attacks.

Check out the gallery above for the latest screenshots as well as a beauty shot for the Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle Limited Edition.

Before Next Level Games started work on Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, the studio was working on “a completely different project for Nintendo”. This is known thanks to an Iwata Asks interview published last year. Perhaps the project in question was a new Metroid game.

Concept art was recently uncovered from the profile of a former Next Level Games employee, which includes shots of an apparent Metroid prototype. Since the staffer left Next Level in late 2009, it’s possible that this was the prototype the studio was working on prior to Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Sadly, we may never know the full story!
