The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons launched on the Japanese 3DS eShop a couple of weeks ago. Both games haven’t been released on the North American or European stores yet, but they are on the way.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma popped up on the series’ official Miiverse community today with a message regarding the launch of Oracle of Ages and Seasons in the west. While he couldn’t provide a specific date for their arrival, he did confirm that both will be available before summer. Hopefully sooner rather than later!


Shigeru Miyamoto commented on a number of new wide-ranging topics in an interview with the New York Times. While talking with the publication, Miyamoto chatted about video game violence, the Wii U’s reception/sales thus far, and expressed excitement over the “tremendous amount of possibilities” provided by online play.

All of Miyamoto’s responses are posted below.



Along with a couple of Little Battlers games, this month’s issue of CoroCoro has revealed a new Inazuma Eleven project.

Inazuma Eleven GO Galaxy will feature the same kind of gameplay fans have become accustomed to. There aren’t many details at the moment, but a first trailer will be shown on March 30.

As far as I can tell, there isn’t an explicit platform mention for Inazuma Eleven GO Galaxy. But given the series’ past, this one will almost certainly land on the 3DS.



A pair of Little Battlers 3DS games have been revealed in the latest issue of CoroCoro. According to the magazine, Danball Senki Wars and Danball Senki W Super Custom are coming to Nintendo’s portable.

Danball Senki W Super Custom, an updated version of the PS Vita/PSP title, is due out in Japan this summer. Danball Senki Wars is completely original, though doesn’t have a release date yet.


Ron Gilbert has announced his departure from Double Fine. Gilbert worked on one game since joining the studio in 2010, The Cave, which saw release in January.

Gilbert’s long-term plans are unclear. However, he did confirm that his immediate efforts will be focused on the iOS title “Scurvy Scallywags in The Voyage to Discover the Ultimate Sea Shanty: A Musical Match-3 Pirate RPG”.

A message from Gilbert reads:

Now that The Cave is done and unleashed on an unsuspecting world (ok, we did do a bunch of PR, so it wasn’t exactly unsuspecting), it’s time for me to move on from Double Fine and plot my next move.
