Snufkin Melody of Moominvalley physical west collector's edition

Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley previously saw a physical release on Switch, but only in Japan. Now Limited Run Games is pursuing something similar for fans in the west.

Chao Garden game

The Chao Garden is something that’s beloved among SEGA fans in the Sonic the Hedgehog title, but that feature won’t be getting its own standalone game in the near future.

Takashi Iizuka, the boss of Sonic Team, ruled out the possibility in a recent interview. He said that Chao Garden is something that it’s a piece of Sonic Adventure, and doesn’t seem to believe it’d make sense to “just break it off and make it a thing.” Fan interest in Sonic Adventure 3 was also again acknowledged.

The Last Ninja Collection

The Last Ninja Collection took to Kickstarter today and almost immediately reached its funding goal. In forty minutes, fans helped raise over £10,000 – and that amount is naturally still rising.

The Last Ninja Collection will contain every Last Ninja title from the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, and Commodore Amiga for the first time, including The Last Ninja, Last Ninja 2, Last Ninja 3, and Ninja Remix. Bangkok Knights, International Karate, and International Karate + are also available.
