Brian, Author at Nintendo Everything

In an interview with CVG, Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg had high praise for Nintendo and spoke positively about the company’s support for Wii U.

Regarding Nintendo in general, Hirshberg says Nintendo “has always found ways to remain completely relevant” and “has some of the best game-makers in the world,” adding that people shouldn’t count them out.

“I want all of the great games in this industry to succeed because more people will be playing games and that’s better for all of us. Nintendo has been a great partner for us. It’s had hardware hits and misses in the past, but it has always found ways to remain completely relevant. It has some of the best game-makers in the world, and I wouldn’t count them out.”

Hirshberg also commented on the Wii U’s slow start up to this point. By supporting Wii U with titles such as Call of Duty: Ghosts, the publisher hopes to make the platform more appealing.

“Nintendo is a very successful company but obviously having a rough go with the Wii U launch thus far. I’m sure Nintendo and the rest of the industry wanted a different result for the Wii U, but if we can add to the appeal of the platform then we absolutely will.”

Details from Famitsu’s Monster Hunter 4 review

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments

Monster Hunter 4 is set to be one of the biggest launches in Japan this year. Famitsu handed out a first score in its latest issue for the much-anticipated game, delivering a total of 38/40.

As far as the actual review is concerned, below are a few tidbits from the editors:

– Whilst being relocated, it’s a dramatically deeper hunting experience
– The length of gameplay has tremendously increased thanks to online play and StreetPass
– The addition of jump attacks and riding monsters makes for a much more enjoyable stereoscopic hunting experience
– It takes more time to master a particular weapon
– Although the in-game mannerisms seem to be drifting, completion with communication tools is high
