A good amount of 3DS games these days launch at retail and on the eShop. Rune Factory 4, a newly confirmed localization release from XSEED, may head down this path.

XSEED’s Tom Lipschultz said the publisher will make the 3DS title available through the eShop if possible:

“Game’s pretty big, so I don’t know if it’ll fit on the eshop. We’ll do it if we can, though, I’m sure.”

Lipschultz also noted that Rune Factory 4 likely won’t be getting a demo:

“And I don’t think it has a demo, so probably no on that front. If you’ve enjoyed previous Rune Factory games, though, then chances are you’ll enjoy Rune Factory 4 — it’s pretty much the biggest, most complex and most charming Rune Factory yet.”

Care to save a few bucks on Paper Mario: Sticker Star? Then purchase the game from Amazon. The retailer is selling the 3DS title for $29.99 as opposed to $39.99. First-party Nintendo releases don’t often go on sale, so I’m not sure how much lower we’ll see this one drop over the next few months.


Need for Speed: Most Wanted is coming out a few months later on Wii U, but it sounds like it’ll be worth the wait. Criterion Games is putting in a lot of effort into the game. Most Wanted will feature the best visuals across all of the console releases, and Criterion even added in a few exclusive modes.

This is kind of an anomaly. Thus far, very few third-parties have brought their ‘A game’ to Wii U development.

But Criterion seems to be a believer in what Nintendo is doing with Wii U and feels that its technology is underrated. Below you’ll find comments from various staffers on the team speaking positively about the console.
