First Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D screenshots
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, Screenshots | 0 comments
Circle Entertainment promised that Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D is still on the way even though the game was announced over four years ago. We almost didn’t believe it, but now we have concrete proof of its existence.
Circle Entertainment has finally posted the very first screenshots from Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D. You can view them in the gallery below.
If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about with Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D, the original title on DSiWare was quite good, but went under the radar. Since games on the 3DS eShop tend to get more recognition, hopefully this new release will as well.

Tank Troopers – developed by Vitei, how the game came to be, voice acting from Nintendo staff
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 9 Comments
Tank Troopers debuted on the Japanese 3DS eShop a couple of weeks ago, and it’s heading west sometime this winter. The game actually wasn’t developed by Nintendo internally. Vitei, the team that created Steel Diver and Steel Diver: Sub Wars, was the primary studio behind Tank Troopers.
From Nintendo, director Takaya Imamura, character designer Yuki Kaneko, and composer / sound effects designer Ryo Nagamatsu were involved. Contributing from Vitei’s side, we have confirmation that Atsushi Obata acted as project manager while Takao Kurebayashi was the design manager. Obata later became a director after Imamura left the project for the production of Star Fox: The Battle Begins. Also, Vitei founder Giles Goddard was a program director and constructed the main system of this title.

Servers for Metroid Prime: Blast Ball demo going offline this week
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 26 Comments
Nintendo brought a Metroid Prime: Blast Ball demo to the 3DS eShop a few months ago. It allowed players to experience a very small slice of single-player, but it primarily was a means to try out the soccer-inspired mode.
Servers for the demo are now confirmed to be discontinued this week. In a notice found on the eShop, it states that they’ll be going offline this weekend.
The full message is as follows:
“Thank you for your continued support. The online multiplayer feature for the Metroid Prime: Federation Force Blast Ball demo will be discontinued at 2016/12/31 23:59 PST. The discontinuation of this demo feature will not impact the online multiplayer feature available in the full version of the game.”
Even after the demo’s servers are removed, you’ll still be able to play Metroid Prime: Blast Ball locally (including Download Play).
