SEGA’s Stephen Frost recently shared an update about Sonic Boom over on the Sonic Stadium forums, including why there hasn’t been much news about the game since its announcement.

Frost explained that the announcement’s timing took place when it did due to “key reasons”. There are also various partners involved since Sonic Boom involves more areas than just a video game (like the upcoming television show).

Starting at E3 next month, fans can expect regular updates about the Sonic Boom title. We’ll see new screenshots, a first look at the 3DS version, and even “a bit of a surprise”.

Head past the break for Frost’s full comments.

Digital game purchases have seen an increase over the past few years. However, based on information coming from The NPD Group, most players in the United States still tend to purchase their games physically.

In its “Core Gaming 2014” report, NPD mentions that seventy-four percent of consumers prefer buying the physical release of a title. Keep in mind that digital preferences are nevertheless on the rise, coming in at a five percent increase year-over-year.

So how about you? Which side of the fence do you sit on? Do you still prefer buying games digitally, or have you started adapting to the digital space?

The Kickstarter-funded indie title Cosmochoria is tentatively slated to launch on Wii U early next year.

Creator Nate Schmold outlined plans for the eShop release in a Kickstarter update, noting that he’ll likely concentrate on this version once “the game is mostly done”.

He said:

I will be testing the Wii U starting this summer once i have a more stable build with some additional optimizations in place. Once the dev kit arrives I’ll be sharing / streaming the progress of my testing, but chances are I wont be able to fully focus on the Wii U dev until the game is mostly done, as I’d first need the full features of the game implemented before I can start tying things to the Wii U control schemes etc. Basically anything i do regarding the Wii U dev i’ll be sure to post about it, though – for those that are interested. 🙂
