First Touch Detective 3 screenshots and details
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 0 comments
Touch Detective 3 is happening, and it has an incredibly peculiar subtitle: “Does Funghi Dream of Bananas?”
Mackenzie, Cromwell, and Funghi are all back for the series’ third entry. Touch Detective 3 also introduces Shiro. She’s a rival detective who is looking to become the best of the world. The dog-like companion “Kinako”, who follows Shiro around, is a professional detective assistant.
Touch Detective 3’s first screenshots show a style that is very reminiscent of the previous titles. You’ll be investigating and moving Mackenzie around with the touch screen. The game also includes a new map featuring a Banana Ice stand and an elephant slide. That’s the kind of weirdness you can expect in Touch Detective 3!
A few tidbits about Zero Escape’s third entry
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News | 0 comments
Zero Escape series creator Kotaro Uchikoshi revealed a few tidbits about the series’ third entry while speaking with Siliconera.
According to Uchikoshi, it will incorporate a slight rise in tension. This is “because I had a lot of fans on Twitter that they liked the sense of fear in 999. I haven’t decided how much, but I will up it.”
Uchikoshi also addressed the question of a returning character. He said:
“I plan on bringing someone back, but I can’t tell you who I’m going to bring back. That’s for both 999 and Virtue’s Last Reward.”
As for why the third game will take place in the middle of 999 and Virtue’s Last Reward, Uchikoshi noted that doing so is “interesting”. He added that it isn’t “conventional since you usually go in order.”
Aksys localized 999 as well as Virtue’s Last Reward. When asked if the company will be bringing over the third game as well, Uchikoshi replied:
“I do want to ask them! Aksys is busy so if they want to work on it, I would like them to do so.”

New details for Sonic Lost World for Wii U & Nintendo 3DS revealed
29th May 2013 – Following on from last week’s Nintendo Direct video announcement in which details of a worldwide partnership between SEGA & Nintendo were announced, Nintendo of Europe today reveals additional details of the second title to be published exclusively on Wii U and Nintendo 3DS as part of the three title deal. Sonic Lost World sees Sonic face his most powerful enemy to date – and this time there are six of them. Sonic Lost World will be available exclusively for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS later this year.
Dr. Eggman has harnessed the power of six menacing creatures known as the Deadly Six, but when the Deadly Six rise up against their master, Sonic has to unite with his arch nemesis in order to take on the new enemies head-to-head. Using his dynamic new parkour moves and improved Colour Powers, Sonic must run, jump and race through a variety of ever changing terrains in order to defeat the Deadly Six.
