Princess Peach will send you letters as you progress in Super Mario 3D Land. This is something that was briefly mentioned during the Super Mario 3D Land Iwata Asks discussion. The letters contain illustrations updating you about the status of the princess, with a hint of nostalgia.
If you’d like to see the set of illustration/letter screenshots, head past the break.
Capcom explains Resident Evil: Revelations’ $50 price tag
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Did you know that Resident Evil: Revelations will cost fifty bucks? I personally had no idea until a few moments ago, but that is the game’s actual price tag. That’s about $10 more compared to your average 3DS title.
Capcom believes that the increase in price is justified. A spokesperson said:
“Resident Evil Revelations is an all new Resident Evil title with over 20 hours of gameplay, and cutscenes beautifully rendered in fear-inducing 3D. A true console experience on a handheld device, Resident Evil Revelations is an epic title that offers both a single-player campaign for that classic survival horror gaming experience, and an additional RAID mode that can be played cooperatively or single player. To handle all of that data Resident Evil Revelations requires a 4GB cartridge, resulting in a higher price point.”
Although we’ve heard that Revelations is very comparable to the console entries, you have to wonder if this is a smart move. No matter how great it may be, selling a portable game at $50 could be tough.

No Circle Pad Pro bundle for Resident Evil: Revelations
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Although the Circle Pad Pro will be available alongside Resident Evil: Revelations in February, there are no plans to offer any sort of bundle for the two products. Capcom confirmed the news last week.
If you ask me, offering a bundle would have been a smart move. In addition to possibly boosting Revelations’ sales (we’ve seen Nintendo peripherals fly off store shelves before), Nintendo would also show that they’re open to collaborating with third-parties in different ways.

Earlier today, we posted the review scores from the latest Nintendo Power. Rayman Origins was the highest-scoring title of the month, earning a 9.5/10. Heck, it even beat out Super Mario 3D Land!
Most fans have been appreciating Rayman Origins’ beautiful art style, though that’s not the only element Nintendo Power enjoyed. The magazine also praised the title’s soundtrack, fluid gameplay, pacing, multiplayer, and more. The reviewer even said that it’s the “Best Rayman game ever made” and called it a “platforming masterpiece.”
Here’s a summary of the positive points included within the review:
+Beautiful art
+Inspired soundtrack that amplifies the manic atmosphere
+Nothing plain or boring
+Extremely fluid
+Some of the “tightest” level design in the reviewers’ 26 year experience with platformers
+Great at creating sense of momentum
+Perfect difficult
+Great multiplayer
+Always introducing new concepts
