Aksys will be attending this year’s Anime Expo, and numerous events and activities are planned.

First, you’ll want to pay attention to the Aksys Games Panel on July 6, between 2 PM and 3 PM. The company is planning on sharing a “new, wacky title announcement” and will host a game show where a few signed copies of a secret item will be given away.

One day prior, Aksys’ “The Art of Localization” panel will allow fans to “Get up close and personal with the translators and editors behind some of your favorite titles including Muramasa Rerbirth, Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward, and Hakuoki”.

Aksys will also shower fans with giveaways, special deals at its booth store, and an “Otome Day” involving a Hakuoki cosplay event.

Anime Expo 2013 will take place between July 4 and July 7.

Nintendo doesn’t typically have a large presence at the World Hobby Fair, and this year is no different. Only one game will be on display – Pikmin 3.

It would have been nice to see additional titles like Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, but it’s better than nothing!

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team is nearly twice the size of Project X Zone, but it, too, isn’t overly huge. The latest in Nintendo’s Mario RPG series will take up 6,792 blocks – possibly give or take a few blocks depending on your region.

Nintendo’s latest 3DS firmware update didn’t just add new save backup functionality. It also took down Gateway’s flashcart. Gateway, however, claims to be “working on making it compatible as quickly as possible” – not exactly the kind of thing Nintendo would like to hear. Nonetheless, these flashcarts have been stopped for now.

Gateway was in the news last month for declaring that it managed to create the first working 3DS flashcart. It allows games to run through microSD cards, which led to concerns regarding piracy.

Project X Zone will take up approximately 3,729 blocks on an SD card. It may vary slightly in Europe and other territories, but that number shouldn’t be too far off. The point is, the game isn’t very big and should easily fit on the card.
