Atlus handled publishing duties for Etrian Odyssey IV in North America, but won’t be responsible for the game in Australia. Instead, NIS America (don’t let the name fool you!) will distribute the 3DS title throughout the continent. That’s according to a rating on the OFLC.

NIS America tends to publish Atlus-related releases in PAL territories. For instance, the company brought Persona 4: Golden to Europe. The OFLC listing probably means that NIS America will release Etrian Odyssey IV in both Australia and Europe.

Tales Adventure isn’t the only Game Gear game recently rated by the ESRB. We’ve detected a rating for Crystal Warriors as well.

The rating is likely signaling an overseas release for the classic title on the 3DS. Japan already received the game on the eShop last month.


Amzy made a Japanese DSiWare game called “Clash of the Elementalists” back in 2011. A couple of years later, Teyon is bringing it to North America and Europe. Clash of the Elementalists is without a release date, but we do know that it’ll cost 500 points.

Shigeru Miyamoto recently made a media tour in North America. The press were given an opportunity to chat with the creator of Mario, Zelda, and countless other IPs.

One such interview from GameSpot covers areas such as Pikmin 3’s delay, the possibility of remaking more games for Wii U (like Wind Waker), what it’s like working with overseas developers such as Next Level Games,
the challenges with Wii U’s messaging, and more.

We’ve posted the full Q&A after the break.


In the sports field, EA is known for IPs such as Madden and FIFA. Going forward, however, the publisher could take on additional franchises.

EA chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen was asked about the company’s upcoming releases at the Wedbush Technology Conference today. In response, Jorgensen said:

“For us, the big opportunities continue to be the FIFA franchise, the Battlefield franchise and then the core sports [franchises] of Madden [NFL], NCAA [Football], NHL, adding NBA [Live] and possibly a couple of new sports franchises along that way. Clearly, that’s a big strength of the company and we want to continue that.”

Could EA take on the UFC series? Last year, the company confirmed that it had entered with UFC a “multi-year, multi-product partnership.”
