Nintendo’s US Inazuma Eleven listing based on latest information available
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
If nothing else, Nintendo’s North American Inazuma Eleven listing for 3DS doesn’t appear to be an error. We followed up with the company after the discovery was made over the weekend, and although not much was said, we were told: “What is listed on the website is the most current info we have.”
Kind of a cryptic response, but apparently, Inazuma Eleven really is coming to the states… we think. Attempts to obtain further details haven’t been too successful thus far.
I do have to admit it’s a bit odd how this listing has come out of the blue. The fact that no previous announcements have been made certainly raises some question marks. It’s also strange how Inazuma Eleven is supposedly due out in Q1 2014 – meaning before the end of March. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see where this leads!

Metroid Prime engine/tools were used to make Donkey Kong Country Returns, 3D Donkey Kong a possibility
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii, Wii U | 7 Comments
Retro Studios president and CEO Michael Kelbaugh commented on Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze’s new 3D camera and how the Metroid Prime games influenced the company’s Donkey Kong titles as part of an interview with GamesTM this month. In doing so, Kelbaugh revealed that Metroid Prime’s engine and tools were used to make Returns.
Kelbaugh told the magazine:
With every game we make, we get better. In that sense, yes, the experience we gained working on the Metroid Prime franchise was invaluable.
Specifically answering your question about 3D to 2D, what you may not realise is that we constructed the levels in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze in very much the same manner as we did the levels in Metroid Prime. However, levels in Returns and Tropical Freeze are much, much larger and more detailed. And I’ll share this with you; we used the Metroid Prime engine and tools to develop Returns, so technically, the lessons learned on Metroid Prime were directly applied.
