Level-5 announced a new game titled “Wonder Flick” during its Vision event in Japan today… and it’s coming out on almost every major platform.

Wonder Flick is a brand new touch-centric RPG with some pretty major talent. Level 5 CEO Akihiro Hino is directing, Nobuo Uematsu is working on the game’s music, Nao Ikeda is in charge of character designs, and Takuz? Nagano from the Professor Layton franchise is designing boss creatures.

It sounds like save data can be shared between platforms. Additionally, each version will apparently have its own unique dungeon.

Wonder Flick is scheduled to launch on Wii U, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PS Vita, Xbox One, and iOS/Android. It’s due out on mobile platforms this November, followed by dedicated gaming platforms in 2014.

You can find the official website here.

Hi all. My name is Scott Duncan (some may know me as Unlikely Yuusha), and I create video game reviews which are filled to the brim with my terrible ideas and ridiculous personality. Hopefully this is something you’ll enjoy.

The debut episode in Nintendo Everything’s new “Unlikely Reviews” series is Super Mario Sunshine, which I’d say is one of the more under-appreciated titles of the GameCube. In the video above, I take a look back on the game and remember the lovable setting and characters.

I’ll see you in the near future with more silly antics!

Nintendo released an enhanced GamePad battery in Japan a few weeks ago. How does it perform? Japanese publication Game Watch put the new battery to the test earlier this month

The original GamePad battery was sitting at 1500mAh, but the new large-capacity battery pack is about 1.7 times stronger at 2550mAh. And whereas the original had an operating time of about 3-5 hours, the new one is said to last between 5-8 hours.

Game Watch set the GamePad’s brightness to the highest point, all power-saving methods were turned off, vibration was turned on, and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate’s opening movie was played on full blast. In this state, Dengeki measured the amount of time until the controller powered down from a complete depletion of battery life.

The results were pretty encouraging, as the GamePad lasted 5 hours and 12 minutes. Previously, the original battery would last about 3 hours in this state.

We should mention that the size of the battery pack is about 1.5 times bigger than the original, so where the original sits vertically in the back of the GamePad, the newer and bigger battery fits perfectly sideways. It just barely fits into the back of the controller.
