Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Famitsu has gone live with the first screenshots from Princess PreCure: Sugar Kingdom and the Six Princesses. You can find them below.
Additionally, we have a few more details about the game. As previously reported, Princess PreCure: Sugar Kingdom and the Six Princesses is a match-three puzzle game. In order to clear them from the puzzle, players need to line up the same colored gummies. Doing so provides characters and costume stickers that can be used for decorations.
Zetsuborg will also come into play while taking on puzzles. The only way to damage these creatures is by erasing gummies. Doing so eventually clears the stage.
Fire Emblem If will support amiibo
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 20 Comments
Nintendo has updated the Fire Emblem If boxarts, and they reveal that the game will have some sort of amiibo support. While the functionality has yet to be detailed, you can probably expect figures like Marth, Lucina, and more to come into play somehow.
The boxarts also confirm that Fire Emblem If is rated CERO C. This will be the first entry in the series with such a rating, which indicates that the game is intended for players 15 and up.

Square Enix distributing new Bravely Second costumes through StreetPass event
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Square Enix is distributing new Bravely Second costumes for Edea, Magnolia, and Yu via a StreetPass event in Japan.
Here’s where fans can obtain the costumes:
Edea – Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Akiba shop in Tokyo
Magnolia – Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Umeda in Osaka
Yu – Futaba Tosho TERA Wonder City Store at Nagoya
In order to participate in the StreetPass event, players will need to have reached a certain point early in the game. They’ll find the Swordmaster Asterisk Holder Kamiizumi (StreetPassizumi), who comes in different forms, after StreetPassing. Players won’t be able to summon friends to fight against the StreetPassizumi, but he’s apparently weaker than average and scales to their level.

Rumor: May’s Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate DLC to include new collaboration content
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 6 Comments
Capcom is supporting Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate with free DLC each month. We’ve seen things like new quests, items, and more. DLC launches during the first Friday of every month, so another round of new content is expected on May 1.
This week’s GameStop ad may reveal some of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate’s May DLC. Pictures showing Palico equipment based on Mega Man and Blanka are in the circular, along with armor featuring Samus’ Varia Suit.
All of these collaboration items were announced in the past – it’s just a matter of when they’ll be available. Capcom previously released a Link-based equipment set, plus Super Mario Bros. and Sonic-based Palico equipment.
May 1 is just on the horizon, so it shouldn’t be long before we find out if this rumor holds any weight.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Fire Emblem If dev talks more about why it’s split into two versions
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 30 Comments
At least in Japan, Fire Emblem If will come in two releases. Nintendo will distribute White Kingdom and Black Kingdoms as two unique items.
Speaking about the dual releases of Fire Emblem If with 4Gamer, Nintendo producer Hitoshi Yamagami talked about how you’ll have a different impressions of the characters that appear in the game based on the side you choose.
He said:
I believe so; however, you’ll be plenty satisfied even just by playing one of the routes, so please play whichever one piques your interest. After that, if you get curious about what happens on the other route, give that a try. Once you learn about one route, the other one will become more profound.

Another round of Fire Emblem If details
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 12 Comments
More details about Fire Emblem If have been translated from 4Gamer’s new interview with the game’s developers. Some of this is a bit of rehash based on what we posted earlier today, but there are new tidbits sprinkled in as well.
Here’s the latest:
– Hoshido has a world map.
– Nohr has more complex maps. Besides the usual “defeat all of the enemies”/”defeat the general” maps, there will also be suppression, breakthroughs, defending bases, turn restrictions, amongst others.
– There are lots of map gimmicks.
– Both versions of the game contain the same characters. You’ll be shown different aspects of their personalities in accordance to the route you select.
– The downloadable version does not contain both sides. It does not lock the other route when you select one. You pay to receive everything up until chapter five, and once you make a decision, you will have to download everything from chapters six, onward, for the respectful route. The second download is free because you have already paid. If you want to try the alternative version, you have to buy DLC in the same way those with physical copies will.
– You can also save directly to your 3DS system (versus the cartridge).
– If you decide to buy the DLC, you can load your chapter 5 data and continue from that instead of starting from the beginning. Of course, you can restart if you’d like to.
– You’ll be able to experience an entire story by only playing one route. The other is a completely different story.
– The third path is in the middle of Hoshido and Nohr in terms of difficulty. People who began with Hoshido should still be able to complete the third path.
– You’ll be able to lower the difficulty in the middle of the game if you find Nohr too hard.
– You’ll still be able to connect with people who play the alternative version. (Probably means you can streetpass someone with Nohr despite playing Hoshido, and vice versa.)
– There will be various perks for connecting with other players.
Fire Emblem If launches in Japan on June 25 and in the west next year.
