A quick reminder to the Kid Icarus: Uprising players out there.

Nintendo has started to transmit SpotPass gems for the game (this actually began a couple of days ago), which can be used to acquire new weapons. Be aware that all gems can be found in the StreetPass menu – even ones acquired through SpotPass!


I highly suggest checking out the videos below if you have mixed feelings about purchasing Kid Icarus: Uprising. It’s excellent!


Four different Ubisoft development studios are contributing to Assassin’s Creed III. We already heard about Annecy working on the game’s multiplayer, but Montreal, Quebéc City, and Singapore are involved as well. Ubisoft Montreal is the main developers behind the project.

Assassin’s Creed III creative director Alex Hutchinson isn’t willing to discuss Québec’s role with the title for now:

“Annecy is still doing an evolution of the multiplayer. There’re a few things that are being done in the Québec studio. So there’s an evolution there. We cannot talk about specifically what they are working on.”

Hutchinson also commented on how Ubisoft Montreal has been focusing on Assassin’s Creed III for well over two years:

“80 percent of our team have come through from AC1, AC2. A lot of them didn’t do ACB or ACR ’cause they were working on AC3. The turnover has actually been scarily low for a franchise that’s been going for seven years. You still have the same lead writer who wrote the first words on AC1, you have the same guy doing the navigation that did AC1.”

“At its core, it is a Ubisoft Montreal game. The thing with other studios is that they have different skill sets. At the end of the day, it’s what makes it sometimes harder to manage the game, but it also makes the game richer.”

Ubisoft reveals more information about Assassin’s Creed III through an all-new video and a series of screenshots. These assets highlight the new hero’s background, including weapons he uses and the different environments he will be in throughout the game.

Set against the backdrop of the American Revolution in the late 18th century, Assassin’s Creed III introduces a new hero, Ratohnhaké:ton, of Native American and English heritage. Adopting the name Connor, he becomes the new voice for justice in the ancient war between the Assassins and Templars. Players become an Assassin in the war for liberty against ruthless tyranny in the most stylized and fluid combat experiences in the franchise to date. Assassin’s Creed III spans the Revolutionary War, taking gamers from the vibrant, untamed frontier to bustling colonial towns and the intense, chaotic battlefields where George Washington’s Continental Army clashed with the imposing British Army.

Gamers who pre-order Assassin’s Creed III at GameStop®, Amazon.com or Best Buy® will receive a Limited Edition collectible case featuring artwork created by award-winning comic book artist Alex Ross.
