This information comes from XSEED’s Twitter…

“XSEED is poised to announce one of our hidden titles next week. It’s sure to be a feather in our cap…”

Will it be an announcement for the Wii or DS? I hope so! There are plenty of games that I’d love to see the company localize.

Capcom was just saying that “there are exciting ideas in the Mega Man space.” Could Mega Man Universe be one of them?

“[The series still has] some surprises in store for everybody. It’s good. I don’t want to say nobody has seen it coming. Somebody may have seen it coming. But it excited me and when I heard about the project, I was like, ‘Holy crap. That’s rad.’ I actually haven’t seen anything that’s going on with the project right now but the idea was exciting. This is still kicking around as a concept. But there are exciting ideas in the Mega Man space. – Capcom’s Seth Killian

Something tells me that whatever Capcom’s thinking about won’t be like Mega Man 9/10. I’m definitely pumped to learn more about the future of Mega Man. What about you guys?

I suppose this doesn’t need much of an explanation At first it takes a minute or so to see, and the N64 obviously needs to be at a certain angle. But the ears on the side, nose by the eyes, mouth, everything – It’s all there!

Thanks to Kyle for the tip!

Nintendo is always on the lookout for pirates, and just last week they shut down a Japanese game store for advertising that they sold R4 cards. Once again Nintendo is trying to fight pirates by revealing that (according to them) a 50% drop in European game sales is due to people using flash cards and such to illegally obtain games. Apparently Nintendo loses trillions of yen every year from pirates, and have also discovered 238 million cases of software pirating in just June of last year.

I’m not sure if I’d believe that there was a 50% drop due to just piracy alone, but I guess Nintendo probably knows more on the subject than I do!
