On Twitter a little while ago, Saturnine Games shared an update about the status of Turtle Tale.
The 3DS version of the game has now been approved by Nintendo of America. It’s still awaiting approval in Europe though.
Saturnine is also continuing development of Turtle Tale on Wii U, which is “progressing well.” It could be submitted to lot check by the end of the month.
Saturnine hopes to see Turtle Tale out in mid/late May. Pricing will be under $5.
NOA approved Turtle Tale for 3DS. Now NCL has to approve it as well. We're hoping to hear from NOE any day now.

Turtle Tale for Wii U is progressing well. No promises, but the end of the month feels like a reasonable target for submitting to lot check.

@kitroplious Nothing concrete yet,but it's looking like Mid/Late May. Price will be under $5. Haven't committed to an exact price yet.

Inti Creates still working on Azure Striker Gunvolt’s western character design
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 10 Comments
According to Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu, the studio is still working on the character design for Azure Striker Gunvolt.
Aizu told Siliconera:
“During the development of Gunvolt, we researched what kind of design would appeal to boys between the ages of 10 and 14—who we assume will be the game’s main purchasers—in North America. As a result, we changed Gunvolt’s design, because braided hair and a bare midriff were unpopular among them. However, these changes are not final. We will continue to do research into the matter.”
Some noticed that some changes had been made to main character Gunvolt in the North American version. Basically, the western design drops his bare midriff and ponytail. It’s not much, but some feel that no changes should be made.

Looks like Mario Golf: World Tour will offer extra courses as paid DLC
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 22 Comments
Nintendo and Camelot are planning on adding paid downloadable content to Mario Golf: World Tour. As noted in an eShop description for the game, players will be able to “Discover additional paid downloadable courses”. We don’t often see paid DLC from Nintendo, so it’s interesting that they’re taking this approach with Mario Golf.
