Sakurai doesn’t think modern Kid Icarus: Uprising port would be possible
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Masahiro Sakurai is so closely associated with the Smash Bros. series that it can sometimes be easy to forget about his other projects. But back in 2012, he managed to successfully bring back the Kid Icarus series with Kid Icarus: Uprising on 3DS.
Kid Icarus: Uprising earned a great deal of praise, though some players were a bit frustrated by the controls. That’s one of the reasons why fans have been interested in seeing it ported to a new system – like Switch perhaps? However, in a recent interview, Sakurai shot down the idea.

Yo-kai Watch 3’s western release combines all three versions into one game
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Yo-kai Watch 3 initially launched in Japan with “Sushi” and “Tempura” versions. A year later, a third “Sukiyaki” version was released. What does this mean for the western version of Yo-kai Watch 3?
This was initially unclear, but Nintendo and Level-5 did something rather interesting for Yo-kai Watch 3 in the west. As it turns out, all three versions were combined into one game. That means every Yo-kai can be obtained in a single save file.
For Yo-kai Watch 2, Nintendo originally brought Fleshy Souls and Bony Spirits to the west. Psychic Specters would come out a year later. Fortunately, we’re avoiding a similar situation with Yo-kai Watch 3.

Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The latest firmware update has gone live. As of today, all system owners can access version 11.9.0-42.
There really shouldn’t be much of a surprise as to what today’s update entails. Nintendo says: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”.
This has been the case for 3DS since 2015. Nintendo has released updates periodically since then, but each one has carried the same notice.
