Nintendo: No last-minute megaton announcements on the way

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 6 Comments

This comes from Nintendo’s Denise Kaigler, when asked about whether or not there will be a Media Summit in North America later this year…

“…We don’t have any last-minute megaton surprises to announce. And we’ve tried to be pretty good about giving media (and consumers!) opportunities to get hands-on time with our games. They were featured at the E3 Expo and then again this past weekend at PAX, where we showed off upcoming games like New Super Mario Bros. Wii, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story. For the first time we also showed off a new WiiWare Pokémon game called Pokémon Rumble.

…So while we’re not planning to do another big summit for all media this year, I think it’s safe to say we’re giving both consumers and writers like you ample opportunities to check out the games they want to see in advance of the holidays. Additionally, remember that in the past we have held a variety of consumer-sampling activities around the holidays. Your readers should be on the lookout for future opportunities to get their hands on the newest Nintendo titles, though there’s nothing specific I can share with you just now.”

I suppose this response isn’t all that surprising. Nintendo already has big guns in store for the holiday season in New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Wii Fit Plus. However, if Nintendo plans on hosting an annual conference in October – even if there’s only one in Japan – I’d expect at least one surprise.

New trademark from Nintendo – The Last Story

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

What is The Last Story, you ask? We actually don’t know, and probably won’t know, until Nintendo makes some sort of announcement. Interestingly, practically all trademarks registered by Nintendo in Japan are almost always in Japanese. However, Glory of Hercules was one of the few instances in which the trademark was registered in English. Perhaps Nintendo will be looking to release The Last Story internationally, similar to Glory of Hercules.

Famitsu to provide a first look at new game from Arc Rise Fantasia devs

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment

Image Epoech, the developers behind titles such as Arc Rise Fantasia and 7th Dragon, will have their newest title revealed in next week’s Famitsu. While the company has mostly worked on Nintendo platforms, they did say awhile back that they have an unannounced PSP project in development. Of course, we won’t know if this is the game Famitsu will show off until the news is leaked in a few days. We will, however, provide further updates if this happens to be Nintendo related.

Telltale to announce all types of new titles in October

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments

“Yes, probably in the next few months…I think there’ll be some combination of things. I think we’ll be sticking with some of the franchises we’ve worked with, and we’ll be announcing some new franchises, probably in some new genres as well, not just comedy.” – head honcho Dan Connors

Telltale Games has, without a doubt, been most known for their comedic point-and-click adventures. Is there any genre in particular you guys would like to see them tackle?

Nintendo still has no DSi VC plans, exclusive Club Nintendo artwork releasing in September

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments

Nintendo’s Denise Kaigler on a DSi Virtual Console…

“I’m glad that your readers are so enthusiastic about the potential for Nintendo DSi. That’s one of the things that’s so great about the system: It fires up the imaginations of developers and users alike to come up with creative new features and content. Unfortunately, a portable Virtual Console isn’t something that we have plans for right now. It’s an intriguing idea, but I have to give you a straight answer, even if it isn’t the one you necessarily want to hear.”

Denise Kaigler on Club Nintendo…

“Well, we can’t announce new specific items until all the details have been locked down. Sometimes that’s frustrating to us as well, since we want to get the news to Nintendo fans as soon as we know about it.

…Because you asked, I wouldn’t dare let this Nintendo Minute expire without leaving you with one, albeit small, piece of insider information about Club Nintendo. Keep your eyes on the Club Nintendo Web site in September. That’s when we will offer members some exclusive Nintendo artwork. For the reason I mentioned earlier, I can’t say any more than that right now – it’s a secret to everybody. I’m really sorry. Hopefully some of you will enjoy it. Others may choose to hang on to the Coins and wait for a different reward. I love surprises. I hope you do as well.”

Would it be too much to ask for more Zelda Wii artwork? That’d probably be too good to be true, wouldn’t it?

Secret video in Birth By Sleep teases next Kingdom Hearts title

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 9 Comments

Gamers looking for a partial taste of the next Kingdom Hearts game will have to play through Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, which should be hitting Japan sometime this winter. In an interview with Famitsu, Kingdom Hearts creator Tetsuya Nomura stated that Birth by Sleep possesses a secret video that will provide some insight for the next game. This may remind players of Kingdom Hearts I and II, as they both had their own mystery endings. Unfortunately, Nomura wouldn’t budge when asked if he was referring to Kingdom Hearts III.

Famitsu: Do you think people will want to replay the first title after clearing this one?

Nomura: Hmmm, I think there are a lot of puzzling elements, so maybe they’ll want to play the next game…And there’ll be a secret movie too.

Famitsu: The next game!? Do you mean “III”!?

Nomura: The next game will be the next game (laughs)
