SEGA is bringing two games to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Aliens: Colonial Marines along with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed will be playable at its “limited-time-only SEGA Arcade”.

More information about the company’s overall plans for the expo can be found below.

SAN FRANCISCO (July 5, 2012) – SEGA® of America, Inc. today announced that after last year’s success, the company is once again setting up shop in downtown San Diego to showcase its biggest titles during San Diego Comic-Con International 2012. The limited-time-only SEGA Arcade, located at 200 Harbor Drive, Suite 120, will feature this fall’s Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed™, the thrilling new racing experience featuring Sonic the Hedgehog and a fantastic cast of SEGA All-Stars, as well as Aliens: Colonial Marines™, the highly anticipated first-person shooter from critically acclaimed studio Gearbox Software that will bring new levels of bone-chilling suspense and adrenaline-filled action to the renowned ALIENS franchise.

Additionally, internationally acclaimed concept designer and visual futurist Syd Mead will sign limited prints of his concept art of the USS Sulaco, featured in the movie ALIENS and in the upcoming game Aliens: Colonial Marines, on Friday, July 13, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Dark Horse and SEGA® of America, Inc. are also pleased to invite fans of the franchise to stop by the SEGA Pop-Up Arcade in downtown San Diego or Booth #2615 on the expo floor to pick up a copy of an exclusive free Aliens: Colonial Marines comic that is only available during San Diego Comic-Con 2012. SEGA’s Aliens: Colonial Marines presence in San Diego will further entail the display of the original 12ft alien queen special effects prop used in the iconic 1986 film ALIENS, courtesy of Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.


When it releases, the 3DS XL won’t come with a charger in Japan (or Europe). Nintendo is easing the pain of those who will be forced to purchase the accessory by dropping its price.

Starting on July 12, the 3DS AC Adapter price will lower from 1,500 yen to 1,000 yen.

Of course, other adapters can be used to charge the 3DS XL. You can use the regular 3DS charger or one that comes with the DSi/DSi XL.

Nintendo is preparing two unique 3DS colors for Taiwan and Hong Kong. Cerulean Blue and Shimmer Pink will be released on September 28. Although they aren’t the 3DS XL models (which hit store shelves on the same day), the original colors may appeal to some consumers.

The New Super Mario Bros. 2 price located on the North American eShop yesterday has been removed. It now contains “TBD” on the listing.

I do admit that it’s curious how the price was removed. Still, I’d be surprised if the price were to change. We’ll see what happens.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
