Zelda: Tri Force Heroes can now be pre-loaded on the North American 3DS eShop
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 11 Comments
Those of you with North American 3DS systems can now pre-load The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes from the 3DS eShop. By purchasing the game now, you can download most of the data ahead of time. You’ll only need a small update when Tri Force Heroes comes out to begin playing.
I did want to point out a small other tidbit as well. The eShop listing says that the Circle Pad Pro is a supported feature, so there’s a handy piece of information for you!
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes launches later this month. The game is scheduled for release on October 23.
Thanks to Jeffery F for the tip.

System: 3DS
Release date: October 13, 2015
Developer: FuRyu
Publisher Atlus
Author: Dennis
At first glance, The Legend of Legacy seems to be an amalgam of things – and it is. Legends are brought together to bring you this title in the form of Final Fantasy XIII composer Masashi Hamauzu, Chrono Trigger writer Masato Kato, SaGa illustrators and designers Tomomi Kobayashi and Kyoji Koizumi, with the inclusion of many other former developers from Square and Level-5. You can feel the influence and inspiration of The Legend of Legacy exude from all of these creators, allowing the game to thrive and revel in it artistically.

Atlus talks about the adjustments made for The Legend of Legacy’s overseas release
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Atlus has been saying for awhile now that some improvements were made for the western release for The Legend of Legacy. We’re less than a week away from the game’s arrival in North America, and we finally have information on this front.
Most of the adjustments pertain to New Game+. Here’s the news straight from Atlus’ John Hardin:
- In NG+, all the money and formations you designed now carry over. Any special weapons you created will also be available to purchase in the shop.
- Drop rates for items and materials was increased across the board. Drop rate for rare items goes up in subsequent NG+. FICTITIOUS EXAMPLE TO ILLUSTRATE THIS POINT: The made-up drop rates for a rare item could be in the first 1st Game – 1%, in NG+ 5%, NG++ 8%, NG+++ 10% etc. Let me stress that these numbers are made up and I have no idea what they are for actual items.
- Finally, the time it takes the trade ship to return is decreased substantially. The ship uses real-world time, and we’ve decreased the amount of time it takes to return.
We’ll have a review up for The Legend of Legacy later today!

Earlier today, it was revealed that Hoopa would be distributed for Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire and X/Y starting on October 23 at GAME stores. We now have confirmation for North America as well. You’ll be able to nab Hoopa “later this year”, according to The Pokemon Company.

Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets dated for October 20, new screenshots
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 3 Comments
Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets will launch on October 20, Ubisoft and Disney Interactive announced today. Pricing is set at $29.99.
Here’s a helpful overview of the title:
Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets is adapted from Disney XD’s #1 series, “Gravity Falls.” In collaboration with the show’s creator and executive producer Alex Hirsch, a brand new and original adventure was created for the game and places players in a mysterious adventure to help Jeff the Gnome retrieve the ancient Gnome Gemulets and restore magic to the Gnome forest.
Players will play as both Dipper and Mabel Pines in dual character gameplay switching between characters at any time to use their unique powers and abilities given through the power of Gnome magic. Dipper is bestowed with Gnome Battle Cuffs which deliver powerful punches at close range, and keeps his trusty flashlight by his side to shed light on the many mysteries in Gravity Falls. Mabel wields the Fleece of Bezazzlementthat lets her whip her sweater sleeves to attack monsters from afar, and her grappling hook is at the ready to help access areas otherwise out of reach. Dipper and Mabel will complement one another as they will unravel a mystery to learn more about the inhabitants of Gravity Falls and unlock secrets of the town’s past.
Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets is powered by the UbiArt Framework game engine and allows players to experience lush backgrounds and beautiful graphics. Players will explore favorite places from the show, such as the Mystery Shack and the Gnome Forest like never before.
