Yacht Club Games doesn’t have much to say about rumors of Shovel Knight in Smash Bros.
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 12 Comments
Rumors recently circulated about Shovel Knight potentially coming to Smash Bros. It’s not yet known if there’s any truth to the speculation, and as expected, Yacht Club Games doesn’t have much to say on the matter.
When asked by iDigitalTimes about the rumors, the studio’s Sean Velasco simply said: “No, we don’t have anything to say about that.”
Velasco again touched on the Shovel Knight amiibo as well, and explained how this is something the studio is prepared for.
“We’re the first third-party amiibo being made. Nintendo, they do this thing where they go to developers and tell them what’s next. We brought up amiibo, and they gave us a run-down of everything. We never thought we could do a third-party amiibo, but that’s what Nintendo’s plan was.”
“We already have a pretty big merchandise wing at Yacht Club. We make shovels and shirts and toys and things. We already had this set up to make something like this, and it was right in our wheelhouse. We’re manufacturing and distributing the thing ourselves, but Nintendo is there with oversight. They’ve helped us out every step of the way. We’ve been working on this deal for a year now, so it’s exciting to be able to tell everyone ‘here it is!'”
First Ace Attorney 6 scans, details
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 19 Comments
The first scans of Ace Attorney 6 have surfaced from this week’s issue of Famitsu.
According to the magazine, the game takes place outside of Japan. Phoenix Wright has come to the unnamed country for a reason, but he gets involved with another case. Residents of the country apparently believe in the spirits of the dead. A big Water Mirror (mizukagami) can be seen in their courtrooms on the floor. On the upper 3DS screen, there are images and words floating in the water. The touch screen seems to show part of a testimony and the option to present something.
Famitsu also introduces us to a boy who goes by the name (roughly) Bokto Tsuani. Bokto is a monk-in-training who works as a tour guide to make some money. It’s said that after starting his tour-guide-talk, he can’t be stopped.

Hyrule Warriors Legends to be playable at TGS
Posted on 9 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Traditionally Nintendo skips the Tokyo Game Show entirely and they will do the same this year – however, one of their major upcoming titles will still be playable at the event. The 3DS version of Hyrule Warriors developed by Koei Tecmo, Hyrule Warriors Legends, will be playable at TGS. There will also be a new trailer shown and some kind of “event”.
Hyrule Warriors Legends is set to be released next year in all regions.
