You may remember that Shigeru Miyamoto was chosen as Spain’s recipient of the Prince of Asturias Award. Following the announcement several months ago, Miyamoto has finally arrived in the country and will be accepting tomorrow.
Some of Miyamoto’s first moments prior to tomorrow’s event were captured on film. The video above is more amusing that you would think. Miyamoto dances around to some music a bit, takes part in a few photo ops, and signs some autographs.
Thanks to Jose for the tip.

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo won’t say how much stock will be prepared for the UK launch of Wii U. That being said, the company did tell CVG that “stock levels will be tight on day one.’
The company said in a statement:
“Wii U stock levels will be tight on day one. However we will be providing retailers with regular stock deliveries in the run up to Christmas in order to meet demand as quickly as possible.”
Earlier today, CVG reported that Wii U stock could be as low as 25,000 units. A separate source, however, indicated that the figure could be between 75,000 and 100,000 consoles.

Japanese Fire Emblem: Awakening DLC details for November 1
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

Next week’s Fire Emblem: Awakening DLC release in Japan is titled “Another Story: Summer of Bonds”. It’s due out on November 1.
The two star, 200 yen download is set in a resort. Anna, a merchant, invites Krom and his crew to a beach retreat in hopes of repaying them for their courageous efforts in saving different worlds. The fun gets cut short when plunderers appear.
In the DLC, parent characters will converse with each other and My Unit is able to initiate special scenes with Krom, Gaia, Sariya and Tiamo – all of whom are wearing swimsuits.

DreamRift interested in returning to Monster Tale
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
DreamRift is very much interested in making a follow-up to Monster Tale.
Monster Tale was the studio’s first-ever game, released last year. While DreamRift has been hard at work on Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion, founder and creative director Peter Ong showed openness when asked about a sequel to the DS title.
Ong said:
“I can’t say too much right now regarding Monster Tale’s future, although we have exciting ideas for it. Anything is possible, either with a publisher or through other avenues such as the eShop. We definitely hold a special place in our hearts for [Monster Tale] with it being our first full creation at DreamRift, and we’d love to bring it back.”
As far as what DreamRift will develop next, Ong said that’s up to the fans.
“It’ll be the support of the fans … that will ultimately determine what DreamRift makes.”
