Rayman creator: Wii U “surprisingly powerful”, Legends using new lighting engine
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Rayman creator Michel Ancel isn’t just impressed by the technology inside the Wii U GamePad. He’s also more than pleased with the console’s hardware.
Speaking with Nintendo Power this month, Ancel noted a couple of times how he finds the Wii U to be “surprisingly powerful.” Like most developers, he’s noticed that the system offers “a lot of memory”, which allows for “huge textures”.
Because of the hardware behind Wii U (and Ubisoft’s own optimizations), the Rayman Legends team has been able to implement a new lighting engine. Sprites now have proper lighting as well as shadows.
“What surprises me with Wii U is that we don’t have many technical problems. It’s really running very well, in fact. We’re not obliged to constantly optimize things. Even on the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions [of Origins], we had some fill-rate issues and things like that. So it’s partly us – we improved the engine – but I think the console is quite powerful. Surprisingly powerful. And there’ a lot of memory. You can really have huge textures, and it’s crazy because sometimes the graphic artist – we built our textures in very high-dentition. They could be used in a movie. Then we compress them, but sometimes they forget to do the compression and it still works! [Laughs] So yeah, it’s quite powerful. It’s hard sometimes when you’re one of the first developers because it’s up to you to come up with solutions to certain problems. But the core elements of the console are surprisingly powerful.
“And because we’re developing for Wii U, we don’t have to worry about cross-platform optimization.
“We can push what the console can do; push it to its limits. And of course, we have a new lighting engine. In fact, the game engine for Origins was mostly just classic sprites in HD, but now we can light them and add shadows and all these things. So there is some technical innovation with the engine itself. “
Details from Famitsu’s Bravely Default review
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Bravely Default: Flying Fairy received a near-perfect score in Famitsu. That may not mean much to some given the magazine’s generous past, but it
Two reviewers gave Bravely Default 10s, and the other two gave it 9s. But what did they actually say about Square Enix’s new RPG?
Read on below for the complete quotes from each reviewer.
Reviewer #1:
“Abundant jobs and abilities paired with ability to build up turns spend them in advance. It’s a unique system and it’s awesome. Thinking about tactics is way too fun. With the skill shown in the graphics and story, you’re kind of unsure about whether your should level your characters or advance the story. Lots of benefits from street passes, so it becomes a game you always want to have and walk around with. A supreme game.”
10/10
Reviewer #2:
“The battle system and the brave-and-default system’s excellence and the very tactical battle system will satisfy. On top of that, I get the impression that the difficulty is kind of high. There are lots of jobs and
abilities, and you feel like it’s really worth developing your characters. Social stuff like summoning your friends and playing with them is really neat.”9/10
Reviewer #3:
“The enemies are strong. It has some meat to it. The battle system is excellent. The Brave and Default system is really novel. It’s fun to consider when to build up Brave Points and how to spend them. Really takes advantage of street pass technology. In particular, I liked using the street pass functions to decrease the reconstruction time of the village. That was really cool.”
9/10
Reviewer #4
“At first, it causes you to remember Final Fantasy with its job system; it’s nostalgic like that. That stuff doesn’t go out of style. The graphics look like a picture book, just beautiful. It’s a new game, but the music has an old, classic feel. The battle system and the street pass contents are so extensive, you’ll want to dive into all of the content.”
10/10

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Japanese Club Nintendo members who register two out of the four upcoming Inazuma Eleven games can receive an extra free game from the site.
Between November 15 and March 31, consumers can register either version of Inazuma Eleven Go 2, Inazuma Eleven Go Strikers 2013, and Inazuma Eleven 1-2-3: Endou Mamoru Densetsu. Once two of these are applied, users will receive a download code for “Inazuma Eleven Everyday”.
Inazuma Eleven Everyday is a brand new experience made exclusively for this Club Nintendo offer. Players talk to characters, give them presents, and interact with them by, apparently, petting them (and other stuff maybe).
Screenshots of Inazuma Eleven Everyday are posted above.

Level-5 America tease is probably something you shouldn’t get excited about
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Level-5 International America posted a message on its Facebook yesterday hinting that something big could be on the way. When it comes down to it though, it may not be worth getting excited over.
The company wrote the following:
“Fridays are great, but we’re looking forward to next week, North America!”
Next week is important for Level-5 International America: it’s first published game, Liberation Maiden, is hitting the 3DS eShop on Thursday. Something tells me that this is what the company was referring to.
On the other hand, if an announcement would be taking place on Friday, then that can’t be about the downloadable game.
Either way, we’ll know what’s up with the message in a few days.
Ancel still not ready to talk Beyond Good & Evil 2
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Can you believe that in around a year from now Beyond God & Evil will be celebrating its tenth anniversary? Time really does fly by!
Ubisoft first teased a sequel, Beyond Good & Evil 2, over four years ago. We haven’t heard much about it since then.
It shouldn’t come as a shock that creator Michel Ancel franchise’s creator still has nothing to say about the project. He was asked for any sort of update in this month’s Nintendo Power, but Ancel was only able to reply with the following:
“[Laughs] I think the Wii U GamePad could be used nicely as a camera… [Laughs] No, to be honest, I’m really focused on Rayman Legends right now. I’m surprised how much of our energy it’s taking because I expected it to be an easier game to make. But because of the Wii U GamePad, we’re really focusing on this one. I can’t talk about what the next game will before us because it’s not set in stone yet, so I guess I don’t have a better answer for you. Sorry! [Laughs]”
