New teaser site from Atlus Japan
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Atlus Japan has just opened a new teaser site, though there isn’t much content on the page at the moment. As you can see in the image above, there is a simple yellow background with the site’s URL.
There are already a few guesses that it’s Persona 4 related. That’s certainly one realistic possibility.
Could this be an announcement for the Tokyo Game Show? Perhaps Famitsu will unveil the game in one of their upcoming issues before the show, with a full blowout next month.
Also, while this teaser isn’t confirmed to be Nintendo-related, remember that there is supposedly some Persona title in development for 3DS. The big list of projects listed for the system from E3 2010 revealed that a new game in the franchise would be heading to the handheld.
Nintendo development rumors that are tough to believe

01Net is at it once again. The site has released a third Nintendo article today, though this time it doesn’t focus on a particular system. You can find some of the more interesting pieces from the report below.
To be honest, I’m having a very hard time believing this round of speculation. That’s what the rumor tag is for, I suppose!
Konami press conference taking place tomorrow
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Konami is holing a press conference tomorrow, yet we don’t know much about it. Other than New Love Plus, the company hasn’t announced which titles will be presented nor have they said when the event will begin.
Famitsu confirmed that bundles will be available for New Love Plus, so that’s one possible announcement for the conference. But one would think that there will be announcements about other Konami titles as well.
Nintendo Conference confirmed for September 13
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
A new article on The Wall Street Journal (registration required) seems to confirm that Nintendo’s rumored September event will indeed take place on the 13th. The site says that it’ll be called the Nintendo Conference, a trade show that is “open to industry people, analysts, investors and journalists, but not to consumers.” So we can expect the same deal as last year’s event.
We’ve already heard that a big announcement is planned, but perhaps it won’t necessarily be on the 3DS as this is called the “Nintendo Conference”. But I have to admit that the 3DS is probably the safest bet for a huge reveal.
Rumor: Big Nintendo title announcement in September
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 0 comments
We now have a follow-up report on Nintendo’s rumored September 13 event. Inside Games is adding to the speculation, claiming that their sources say that an extremely big title will be announced next month. They aren’t sure if the reveal will be taking place on September 13, however, nor do they know if that’s when the rumored 3DS conference will take place. It does seem that the event will be taking place sometime in September though.
Monday Stuff – Gameplay vs. Atmosphere: Which is More Important?
Posted on 13 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Features, General Nintendo | 0 comments
The way I see it, there are two parts to making a game: Making the gameplay, and making the atmosphere. These two parts are integral to any great game design, but each one encompasses a totally different set of things. Gameplay includes things like controls, level design, etc, while the atmosphere can encompass everything from the graphics to the music, to the sound effects and character animations. Both are important parts of game design, and when a developer can bring together a perfect balance of the two, we get games that are so full of magic and wonder, we feel like we can never put them down. These, in my opinion, are games like The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and Banjo Kazooie.
