[Book Club] Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward – Week 1
Posted on 10 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in 3DS, 3DS eShop, Book Club, Features | 2 Comments
Ah yes, that’s right kids: We’ve chosen Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward as the game to play for the next NintendoEverything Book Club! If you want to hear the reasoning behind it, check out the latest episode of the podcast, but otherwise feel free to pick up the game this week and start playing. The game can be picked up on the cheap via the Nintendo 3DS eShop; it’ll cost you $24.99.
We’ll have our first discussion about it on next week’s podcast, as per usual!
“How far do I have to get this week?”
The goal is simply to start playing. We’ll aim to get beyond any opening tutorial sections and a little ways into the story individually– plan to put in 2 to 3 hours.
“How can I participate in the discussion?”
If you have something you want to say about the specific section of Zero Escape that we’re going to be playing, send us an email! [email protected] is the place to do that.
Please refrain from discussing the game in general only– if you have a general observation, we’d love to hear about what specific parts of the game made you come to that conclusion!

Asano talks Bravely Default’s improvements
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Bravely Default hit Japan towards the end of 2012, and then Square Enix prepared a re-release, “For the Sequel” about a year later. This is the version that the North American and European editions are based on.
For the Sequel’s improvements led to lower completion time. Instead of forcing players to sift through 70 hours of content, they can now finish the game in about 30 instead.
As for what specific improvements were made in order to reduce the time it takes to beat Bravely Default, producer Tomoya Asano told Siliconera:
