WaterMelon once again says Pier Solar HD could hit 3DS, Wii U tidbits
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
WaterMelon has reiterated that Pier Solar HD is a possibility for 3DS.
Company president Tulio Adriano Cardoso Gonçalves told RedBull UK:
“We’d like to have supported more platforms at the launch, but we had to draw a line at certain point so that we didn’t lose our focus. Still, there’s a lot of demand for handhelds such as 3DS and PS Vita, so we’ll assess those after the game is launched on the main platforms.”
A few tidbits about the Wii U version of Pier Solar HD have been divulged as well. As far as how the GamePad is being taken advantage of, Gonçalves said:
“On the Wii U you can either use the GamePad as a mirror screen for off-TV play, or as a fully-interactive second screen that will allow you to perform many operations related to your inventory, spells and other new functions new to Pier Solar HD.”

Koji Igarashi leaves Konami, starting new studio
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
Well-known Castlevania producer Koji Igarashi has left Konami. His final day with the company was on March 15.
Following his departure from Konami, Igarashi now intends to open a new development studio.
Igarashi told IGN:
“I’ve decided to break out on my own to have the freedom to make the kind of games I really want to make — the same kind I think fans of my past games want as well. Leaving Konami was a big decision, and not one I took lightly – I’ve spent my entire career there, made many friends, and had a lot of great opportunities – but I hope all the gamers and fans who have supported me in the past will join me in being excited about what comes next. Wish me luck!”
Igarashi played a role in many of Konami’s Castlevania titles, starting with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. He last produced Harmony of Despair.
