Zelda: Tri Force Heroes – story, princess isn’t Zelda, unsure where it fits into the timeline
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 6 Comments
This information comes from Zelda: Triforce Heroes director Hiromasa Shikata…
On the story…
The story takes place in a world that is not Hyrule. It’s a kingdom that is sort of fashion-obsessed and in that kingdom, an event happens involving the princess of the kingdom –
On whether the princess is Zelda…
No. The king, of course, wants to solve this problem so he puts a general call out to the kingdom for heroes to assemble, and who answers the call, but Link and that’s the beginning of your adventure.
On where it fits into the Zelda timeline…
That’s a tough question. The Zelda timeline is “complicated” and if you look at the history of Zelda you will see there are three branches. I can’t really designate which one of those branches we’re looking at, but as far as the design itself, we looked to Link Between Worlds. But it’s not – as far as a timeframe – it’s not before or after. We haven’t really settled on that.
On whether it takes place in the same universe as a Link Between Worlds…
With the history of Zelda we have these three parallel worlds. I can’t say which one it’s on/in at this point.
– Play along two paper dolls called “dopples” in single-player
– Can’t play the game as two players and bring along a single paper doll dopple
– It’s either 3-player co-op or single-player
– If you want to play with only one other player, you can duke it out in the game’s coliseum mode
– Again, Download Play supported

Mighty No. 9 E3 2015 demo details (highway and prison levels)
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
– E3 demo has a stage set on a rainy highway at night
– Futuristic semis and hover cars are in the level
– Use Beck’s horizontal dash to zip between cars that act as sanctuary above the insta-kill road below
– Dash move is unlimited but requires deliberate use
– Stage boss Mighty No. 7 occasionally hops in to slice apart a car your standing on
– Use the dash to dodge enemies and zip into them to take them out
– Some enemies drop defense-boosting shields and power-ups
– These increase attack power
– Combo system in the game
– Highway section ends with a face-off against Mighty No. 7, named Brandish
– Brandish spins across the floor, performs leap attacks with reasonable dodge windows, and frequently opens himself up to attack
– Doing enough damage to Brandish causes him to glow pink, prompting players to dash into him to deal a huge amount of damage
– The battle almost falls apart when Brandish begins slashing across the screen in broad strokes, telegraphing his attacks with brief pink lines
– Another stage features Call
– Call controls like Beck
– Call’s prison level requires her to be a bit stealthier
– She can stun enemies with a weak, slow blaster and use a shield to deflect incoming enemy attacks.
– Enemy robots project yellow vision cones that blink red if Call is discovered
– Huge sentry robots guard more open areas, firing out a big bladed boomerang at Call when they spot her
Disney Magical World 2 coming to 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Bandai Namco released Disney Magic Castle: My Happy Life in Japan back in 2013. Last year, Nintendo brought the game over to North America and Europe as “Disney Magical World”.
Now we’re hearing that a sequel is in development. This week’s Famitsu reveals the existence of Disney Magic Castle: My Happy Life 2 (which should be Disney Magical World 2 if/when it comes over), and it’s heading to 3DS.
Bandai Namco will be sharing more details at an event scheduled for July 6. Some parts of this will be broadcasted on the Bandai Channel. It’s not live yet, but the official website will be located here.
A release date and price for Disney Magic Castle: My Happy Life 2 have not yet been decided.
