It’s unclear how well Tales of the Abyss 3DS sold in Europe. Nonetheless, Namco Bandai is pleased with the game’s performance.

Based on new comments from a Namco Bandai representative, the company wishes it had advertised Abyss more in Europe. That didn’t stop the title from surpassing expectations, however.

Kingdom of Tales, paraphrasing a remark from the rep, says that it “sold unexpectedly fast and well, and they had to print copies of the game again three or four times.” Namco Bandai considers Abyss’ sales “as a success in its own way, and encourages Namco Bandai Partners in its decision to localize more Tales games in the future.”

Abyss, along with the recently released Graces F in North America, are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Tales localizations going forward. Namco Bandai hopes to make the series more well-known in North America and Europe. Furthermore, the company would like to “attract new gamers who enjoy video games with anime characteristics, something the Tales series keep but the Final Fantasy series gradually lost.”

This is late… very late. We have the first screenshots from the DS version of The Amazing-Spider Man. For unknown reasons, Activision is releasing the images now, despite the fact that it’s been out since last month.

The Amazing Spider-Man DS is a much different game than the 3DS and console versions. It’s a side-scrolling 2D game made by Other Ocean Interactive, the creator of Dark Void Zero.

You can find a sampling of screenshots from The Amazing Spider-Man DS in the gallery above.

Poking around the Japanese message boards, I noticed something very peculiar. Project Sora’s website has been updated with a very odd notice.

It seems that the studio, formed by Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai, has been dissolved as of June 30. The site will no longer be accessible on July 31.

You can take a look at the Japanese notice for yourself right here.
