Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward scenario writer Koutaro Uchikoshi has been talking about a sequel for awhile now. Even after all of these months, Uchikoshi is still chatting up a storm about a new entry in the series.

Uchikoshi tweeted the following over the past few days:

@suburbanwhitekd Yes. Junpei will appear as a participant in the next game. 🙂

@syberiawinx I also know everybody likes Snake. Dio? I think he will appear in the next too. Although he isn’t the man who you know. 🙂

The only downside? Uchikoshi hinted that it could be awhile before we see a new Zero Escape.

On November 29, Square Enix registered the domain names AllTheBravest.com and AllTheBravest.net. It also filed a European Community Trademark.

Considering “Bravest” is in the name, one would hope that this is related to Bravely Default. But at this point, it almost seems silly to expect anything not known as Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts to be localized.

Or maybe this does have something to do with Bravely Default – except it’ll probably end up being that browser game…

Making the first Paper Mario wasn’t easy for Intelligent Systems. First and foremost, the team couldn’t decide on the proper approach that should be taken for the game’s visuals.

Here’s one of the earliest designs created for the project:

As you can see, the title wasn’t known as “Paper Mario” at the time – understandably so. Instead, it was tentatively called “Mario RPG 64”. While it’s made of 3D polygons, according to Naohiko Aoyama, it features “an atmosphere like that of a picture book transplanted into a video game—with paper-thin 2D background and characters.”

Nintendo UK executives James Honeywell and Shelly Pearce were in attendance for the Wii U’s launch last night. Of course, the event wouldn’t have been complete without a few interview questions!

Eurogamer spoke with the Honeywell and Pearce just before the console’s official release in the UK. The two commented on Wii U stock, the system’s price, potential confusion that using the Wii’s brand could bring, concerns about a possible price cut in the near future, and targeting the core audience at launch. There’s even some talk about the 3DS as well.

Check out the full Q&A below.
