As though we’d ever think this was going to happen: A movie (based on a book) about the 1990’s insane console war between Nintendo, Sony, and SEGA will be coming out, directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg (both of whom worked on last year’s This is the End). The book– authored by Blake Harris, who will write the film– that the movie is based upon hasn’t released yet, but the it is in the pre-production stages which means we could see it as early as next year.
No word on specifics; the above is all the real info we have.
UK: Bandai Namco promotes Pac-Man game with huge projection on SEGA building
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
In the UK last night, Bandai Namco used some of the most powerful projectors in the world to promote Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures.
Those who were driving along the M4 on Monday may have noticed that Pac-Man was standing 80 feet tall and plastered across the iconic SEGA building in Chiswick, West London. Sonic the Hedgehog was featured in conjunction with the promo to celebrate Ghostly Adventures’ launch.
But just a few minutes after the projection began, Bandai Namco says the plug was pulled “when security guards were alerted by local authorities as this was a stunt clearly designed to shock, delight and decorate Sega’s impressive building that graces West London.”
PR and marketing director for Bandai Namco Games UK Lee Kirton commented:
“We wanted to be cheeky, create some fun, but obviously do it quietly. Something that’s hard to do in the game’s industry, but slightly easier at midnight. We hope Sega aren’t offended, more delighted.”
An interesting – if not strange – series of events.
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures launches in the UK on March 7.

Lords of Shadow producer believes the days of 2D Castlevania games are gone
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 68 Comments
David Cox, producer of the Castlevania: Lords of Shadows series, believes that the days of 2D Castlevania games are gone.
Cox told GamesTM this month that even though hardcore gamers would appreciate a new 2D Castlevania, “the reality is that it’s a very niche market and Konami really want this series to be mainstream again.” He wouldn’t rule out a new 2D title completely, though it wouldn’t come from MercurySteam.
You can find Cox’s full comments below.
