At E3, Nintendo revealed Demo Play, a ploy of sorts that the company is featuring to make experiences less frustrating for casual gamers. Essentially, players can allow the game itself to take over and skip parts that he/she finds difficult. The first title to be making use of this function will be New Super Mario Bros. Wii, although Nintendo isn’t stopping there. Japanese reports from Nikkei say that the Big N will be implementing Demo Play in DS games as well. No specific titles were mentioned, but seeing as how New Super Mario Bros. Wii will be the first representative of Demo Play, implementation of the mode in handheld games shouldn’t be expected until after the holiday season.

Another year of American independence isn’t the only thing we’re celebrating this week. With new releases, including the hotly anticipated game BIT.TRIP CORE, Nintendo crosses the 100-game mark in its ever-growing WiiWare™ game library, a milestone that ought to keep fans ooh-ing and ahh-ing long after the Fourth of July. Other WiiWare offerings this week will have players bursting bubbles and racing in chariots, whether solo or with friends. Nintendo DSiWare™ welcomes a new Art Style™ title and a unique auto racing game, while a classic Commodore 64 title will have Virtual Console™ users tearing it up California style.


Square Enix just opened up the official website for Final Fantasy Gaiden: Four Warriors of Light and has revealed that some fairly legendary talent is handling the project. Takashi Tokita, who has worked on the likes of Chrono Trigger, and Final Fantasy III/IV/VII is the director. This isn’t Tokita’s first experience with the DS, as he has been a part of the Final Fantasy IV remake on the DS (director/executive producer). You can check out the staff roster which was posted on the website below.

Producer – Tomoya Asano
Character design/art director – Akihiko Yoshida
Sound director – Tomohiro Kamiya
Developer – Matrix
Director – Takashi Tokita

Also interesting is a subpage on the site for specs. According to the page, Final Fantasy Gaiden will feature multiplayer connectivity for up to four players. However, we’ll have to wait and see what the developers are planning.
