Aonuma on Zelda: Majora’s Mask – reusing character models, bottles tease, why Clocktown’s bank vault isn’t affected by time, and more
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii | 7 Comments
Surprise, surprise! Another interview with Eiji Aonuma has appeared. The latest one comes from Game Informer, who spoke with the Zelda producer.
There are actually quite a few interesting questions and answers. Aonuma was asked if Majora’s Mask is all a dream, teased a special event in the 3DS version for finding all of the bottles (plus there’s an extra one in this version), and shared a development nugget about Twilight Princess’ development.
Head past the break for some interview excerpts. The full talk can be found here.

The curious case of SpongeBob HeroPants 3DS and Unity
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Yesterday we posted some gameplay footage from SpongeBob HeroPants on 3DS. Those who have watched the video have been quick to point out that a Unity logo pops up as you boot up the title. What does this mean? Well… truthfully, no one can say for sure just yet.
There are a few theories floating around. Is SpongeBob HeroPants one of the first 3DS games to support Unity? Did the developers simply forget to remove the logo (since there are other versions out there like the PlayStation Vita edition)? Did the team port the engine themselves?
No one seems to have a clear-cut answer at the moment. It’s an interesting discovery nonetheless!
