General Nintendo

Kevin Bayliss left a huge mark on Rare during his nearly 20-year run at the studio. As a designer and art director, he contributed to Donkey Kong Country, Diddy Kong Racing, Star Fox Adventures, and much more.

UK magazine GamesTM spoke with Bayliss (who is now at Playtonic) this month, and asked him plenty of interesting questions about his time at Rare. The topics we’re mainly interested in focus on Nintendo specifically. Bayliss commented on the process of redesigning Donkey Kong for Donkey Kong Country, the initial changes that Star Fox Adventures went through, meeting Shigeru Miyamoto, and more.

We’ve included Bayliss’ comments below. You can pick up GamesTM now for the full interview.

Image & Form posted the latest episode of The Engine Room today. The studio talked about – or rather teased – its plans for 2017, including the next SteamWorld game.

It would appear that the proper announcement of the new project isn’t too far off, as it will actually be shown at PAX East in March. SteamWorld Quest should be the name going off of what we heard a few months ago, though it’s not officially set in stone.

Watch the full episode of The Engine Room below. 

Nintendo has put out a new video about all things Mario to promote Super Mario Run. It shows the various types of games he’s appeared in, characters from the franchise, and more. Check out the video below.

We first heard about plans for a figma of Corrin from Fire Emblem Fates at WonderCon Festival a few months ago. Seemingly from some sort of scan, the first image is attached above.

Corrin’s figma has not yet been dated. Max Factory will presumably have it ready sometime in mid to late 2017.

The Pokemon Sun & Moon anime has been running for a couple of weeks now, and its reception on the internet has been fairly positive. Alongside the anime’s 8th episode, which aired today, broadcaster TV Tokyo released a short preview video which shows a couple things that will happen over the next weeks and months in the anime. Take a look if you don’t mind spoilers:

An Ace Attorney novel, Turnabout Idol, arrived in Japan this past summer. A new one now appears to be in the works.

Amazon Japan is listing Turnabout Airport as a sequel to the previous novel. In it, Apollo is arrested for the murder of a politician.

Mie Takase is returning as the book’s writer. Takase also has experience working on novelizations of games like Kirby and Fire Emblem.

Ace Attorney – Turnabout Airport is currently scheduled for February 15 in Japan.
