OFLC rates “Tekken Revolution”
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
A mysterious title was rated by the OFLC today. The Australian classification board has added in an entry for something called “Tekken Revolution”, a multi-platform release.
As far as we know, Namco Bandai hasn’t announced any such project. The OFLC does categorize the title under the “Computer Games” category and gave it an “M” rating – targeted for players 15 years and over.
Tekken Revolution’s OFLC rating comes hot on the heels of Namco Bandai’s “Tekken Arena” trademark filing in Europe. Could the two be related?
Thanks to Xolo for the tip.

UK retailer lists “Animal Crossing Limited Edition” 3DS bundle
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Nintendo Everything reader Cameron Thomas has brought an interesting retailer finding to our attention. UK outlet ShopTo is listing the “Animal Crossing Limited Edition Console Bundle 3DS” on its website with a release date of June 14 – the same day Animal Crossing: New Leaf launches in Europe.
ShopTo mentions that Animal Crossing is pre-installed on the system. A small box shot of the Japanese 3DS Animal Crossing bundle is included on the product page, too.
Could Nintendo be gearing up for a western Animal Crossing 3DS bundle announcement? One would assume that it’s the same product that Japan received last year. Perhaps we’ll hear something during this week’s Nintendo Direct…

Alex Ward says he isn’t working on Burnout, Need for Speed, Road Rash, or Black sequel
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
There have already been a lot of rumors as to what Criterion Games is working on. Just recently, we heard that the studio could be working on Need for Speed: Underground before creative director Alex Ward debunked the speculation.
Criterion isn’t working on any Need for Speed game, apparently. The company isn’t making a new Burnout, Road Rash, or Black sequel either. That’s account to Ward, who once again took to Twitter and cleared up a few things for fans:
Level-5 teasing Guild02 localizations?
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Guild02 could be one of the new announcements made during this week’s Nintendo Direct.
Level-5 has renewed its black box teaser page, also teasing the news on Twitter:
The black box is back…! Do you know what it means? level5ia.com/blackb0x/
— LEVEL5_IA (@LEVEL5_IA) April 15, 2013
The last time Level-5 messed around with the black box page, we found out that the Guild01 games were heading to North America and Europe. That’s likely the same case this time around.

Ubisoft details Rayman Legends Challenges App
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
Ubisoft is scheduled to launch the free Rayman Legends Challenges App on the Wii U eShop later this month. The exclusive download is Ubisoft’s way of showing their thanks to fans for their patience in waiting for the full game’s arrival.
The Challenges App will offer Wii U owners the following, according to lead game designer Emile Morel:
- a crazy run in Land of the Livid Dead.
- a journey in the vertiginous Neverending Pit.
- a climb of the Infinite Tower as fast as possible.
- Murfy’s Dungeon, a challenge dedicated to the Wii U GamePad where you play as Murfy on the touch screen.
Players will be able to partake in daily and weekly challenges “to compete with your friends and players from all around the world” through the online Challenge Mode. New and exclusive levels will be generated each day and every week, and the app will be supported up through the launch of the full game.
Morel told Nintendo Life that “The Rayman dev team will provide some exclusive tips and tricks for Wii U owners on Miiverse and on Facebook” and there are plans to “organize contests between our fans and the Rayman dev team.”
