EA says it will bring Star Wars games to all major platforms
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Podcast Stories | 0 comments
EA signed an exclusive deal with Disney to develop and publish “new Star Wars titles for a core gaming audience, spanning all interactive platforms and the most popular game genres”.
There’s no doubt that new Star Wars releases from EA will appear on the PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. But what about Wii U? EA hasn’t exactly been supportive of the console as of late.
No announcements were made, but EA said during an investor conference call today that it plans to bring Star Wars titles to all major platforms. Hopefully EA considers Wii U to be a “major platform”…

OFLC rates Crash ‘n the Boys: Street Challenge for probable overseas 3DS VC release
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
A rating for Crash ‘n the Boys: Street Challenge has popped up on the OFLC.
This likely has something to do with the overseas release of the game on the 3DS eShop. Japan received Crash ‘n the Boys on the 3DS eShop back in January, but it hasn’t arrived in any western store just yet.

Marvelous USA says Senran Kagura Burst in the west is a “scary proposition”, digital release possible
Posted on 10 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
You know that super-Japanese, large-breasted 3DS fighting game Senran Kagura Burst? Well, a lot of gamers want the title to come to the west, despite some obvious cultural differences that might make it somewhat difficult to sell in large quantities, so Siliconera decided to ask Marvelous USA (formerly known as “XSEED”) if they’d ever bring the game over, considering that they are the premier Japanese localizer:
– Marvelous USA Director of Publishing Ken Berry
This would be exactly why digital distribution is such a wonderful tool, even if we don’t want to use it for every single title out there. I’m not sure if I would pick up Senran Kagura if it came to the 3DS eShop, but I can definitely think of a few people who would and those few people might just be enough to help Marvelous turn a profit on the product. It’s tough to say either way.
