Aonuma confirms light/dark world for Zelda’s new 3DS entry, reveals idea behind Link’s ability to turn into a drawing
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Podcast Stories | 0 comments
Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma opened up about the new Link to the Past 3DS follow-up while speaking with CNET recently.
Comparing the entry with some of the more recent Zeldas, Aonuma said “it certainly feels different from our [the developer’s] point of view.” Aonuma didn’t elaborate too much beyond this, but noted that the chance to create a brand new Zelda for the 3DS brought about a blank canvas. It was this opportunity that led to the decision of a return to the classic top-down style.

Rawbots has a shot of landing on Wii U. The game’s developer has guaranteed that it will come to the eShop if a new Kickstarter goal is reached.

Interested backers can find details about Rawbots on the Kickstarter page here.

Mighty Switch Force! 2 is coming close to release. Developer WayForward shared an update on its blog today saying that the game “is a wrap”, probably indicating that actual development has completed. The studio is now getting involved with testing to ensure a quality launch.
WayForward’s blog states:
“Mighty Switch Force! 2 is a wrap! It’s pencils down for the dev team. Next stop, testing, testing, and more testing. Poor Patty… not even cybernetic citizens of Planet Land can escape the wrath of final exams.”
Activision: No Call of Duty: Ghosts news for Wii U “as we aren’t dating next generation platforms yet”, says “stay tuned”
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
After numerous leaks, Activision finally announced Call of Duty: Ghosts. But the reveal left out the mention of a Wii U version, something that was a bit unexpected.
Activision has since commented directly on the possibility of a Wii U version of Ghosts – cryptically, might we add.
While the statement doesn’t say much, Activision noted that there isn’t news to share “as we aren’t dating next generation platforms yet.” The publisher also teased: “Stay tuned.”
“We don’t have any news for the Wii U at this time, as we aren’t dating next generation platforms yet. Stay tuned.”
That certainly gives off the impression that a Wii U announcement could be coming at a later date. Still, it’s rather annoying that Activision can’t just give us a straight answer immediately.
NST officially confirmed as developer behind Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
As expected, Nintendo Software Technology is behind the upcoming 3DS eShop game Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move.
NST was the developer of all previous entries in the series. The company also created Metroid Prime: Hunters, Crosswords Plus, and Aura-Aura Climbers – among many others.
You may remember that Sonic the Hedgehog co-creator Hirokazu Yasuhara joined NST last year. It’s unclear if he played a role in the making of Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move.
