With Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl launching next week, there’s no better time than now to familiarize yourself with the series. Amazon has the franchise’s latest entry, Etrian Odyssey IV, on sale for just $20. The game normally costs $40, so you’d be saving $20 (or 50%).


Unsurprisingly, Monster Hunter 4 was a huge endevour for Capcom. Speaking in an internal interview, series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto said “a few hundred people” contributed to the game’s development.

How does that compare to other Capcom games? DmC Devil May Cry, a fairly high-profile release, saw a development team of “over 90 members”. Resident Evil 6, on the other hand, experienced a staff count of over 600 people.

We have details on three upcoming Japanese 3DS titles, courtesy of translations from Siliconera.

Rather than splitting up the information into three posts, we’ve rounded up all of the information below. Head past the break for the latest on each game.


Fans have been campaigning for Capcom to bring Monster Hunter 4 to the west through the use of a certain hashtag. It’s apparently received enough attention that the publisher felt a need to respond.

On Facebook, Capcom wrote that the company is “continuing to evaluate new Monster Hunter titles for the west”. Capcom is also “excited to see the fan base growing and you all showing your passion”.

The full message reads:

“Hey hunters! We’ve seen many of you ask for us to #BRINGMH4TOTHEWEST. We’re excited to see the fan base growing and you all showing your passion, keep it coming! We are continuing to evaluate new Monster Hunter titles for the west, and will share any new information with you here on Facebook as soon as we have it..”

I wouldn’t worry too much about Monster Hunter 4 getting localized. It just came out in Japan, so in a few months from now, I’m sure Capcom will have something to say.

New Pokemon X/Y details

Posted on 10 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

You can find a new batch of Pokemon X/Y details below. The latest information was translated from a Japanese magazine by the folks over at Bulbagarden.

– As has been mentioned Pokemon gain experience even when the opposing wild Pokémon is caught
– A caught Pokémon gives the same experience points as a defeated one
– Sky Battles are limited to Flying-type Pokemon and those with the Levitate ability; some moves can’t be used
– There is an adjustment to the inheritance system of breeding
– Ghost-type Pokemon can freely escape from battle without being influenced by Shadow Tag
– The item Exp. Share will revert to Exp. All as in Generation I
– This sees one Pokemon holding the item and participates in battle, but all other Pokemon in the team receive experience as well
– Participating Pokemon receives 100% experience, and non-participating Pokemon receive 50%
– When distributing new moves and abilities, priority was given to new Pokemon
– CGI style is different than Pokemon Stadium/Battle Revolution since those games were supposed to emulate “realism within fantasy”
– Handheld Pokemon games are supposed to be accessible to everyone, so battles were made “cuter”
– Selection process for Mega Evolved Pokemon is based on three points: visual looks, popularity and game balance
– Because Mega Evolved Pokemon are put in the same class of legendary Pokemon, only one Pokemon can hold a Mega Stone during battles
– The timing to Mega-Evolve is selectable.
– Some moves, with focus on special ones, have had their power and accuracy revamped
