Nintendo of Europe will show their own Nintendo Direct presentation tomorrow and it’s being held by an alternate version of Satoru Iwata! Okay… not really, but Nintendo of Europe’s president Satoru Shibata will be hosting.

Highlights from the Japanese Nintendo Direct will be included as well as “announcements and content entirely exclusive to Europe.”

Nintendo of Europe/UK will be live-tweeting updates here and here.

You’ll be able to watch the broadcast on this page at 1 PM CET.



The next Nintendo Direct will be taking place this Saturday. In North America, the broadcoast will be shown on April 20 at 11 PM EST / 8 PM PST. These presentations have been a bimonthly affair for Nintendo since October.

Satoru Iwata will be on hand to share the latest information about the 3DS and Wii. Essentially, you can expect footage, trailers, and other material for Japanese games. We’ll probably see the first trailer for Project X Zone and other upcoming releases.

Keep track of the Nintendo Direct page here. It’s currently unclear if Nintendo of America/Europe will be holding their own presentations.


So uh… not the best lineup around, but maybe Rising Star Games’ lineup will offer more core experiences in the coming years…

TORRANCE, Calif. – April 19, 2012 – Rising Star Games Inc. today announced four new Nintendo 3DS™ and Nintendo DS™ titles to further expand the company’s current 2012 North American portfolio.

Rising Star Games’ portable lineup offers a variety of casual titles, all due for release in summer through fall, including the following (in order of scheduled release):


Ghostlight will be bringing two Shin Megami Tensei games to Europe. Devil Survivor Overclocked and Devil Survivor 2 are seeing localization for PAL regions. Both titles are without release dates for the time being.

The official announcement has been posted below.

Ghostlight have today announced that they will be releasing their first Nintendo 3DS™ JRPG. As anticipated by many fans, Ghostlight’s first title on the platform is the eagerly awaited Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked, the Nintendo 3DS™ remake of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor. They will also be releasing the amazing Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor II on Nintendo DS™ throughout the PAL region.

About SMT: Devil Survivor Overclocked

Considered one of the best RPGs of 2009*, the original Devil Survivor presented gamers with a novel premise: Tokyo is in full lockdown, the government’s swift, coldblooded response to a surprise demon invasion. While you and your friends must solve the nature of the inter-dimensional rift through which the horrific creatures are entering your world, saving the world is not your highest priority; staying alive, on the other hand, is.


Inchworm Animation came out in North America on April 25, 2011. Even though it’s taken Flat Black Films an entire year to complete Nintendo of Europe’s review process, the title will finally be launching next week. Inchworm Animation will be available in Europe on April 26 for £7.20 / 800 points.

You can find the official announcement below.

For the past year it has been one of the most popular DSiWare titles in USA. Finally on April 26, Inchworm Animation makes its long-awaited European appearance on Europe’s Nintendo DSiWare™ service for 800 Nintendo DSi Points™.

It’s not a game, and it’s not for kids, though artists of all ages will enjoy digging into the creative toolbox unlocked by Inchworm Animation. The much anticipated animation software comes from Bob Sabiston’s Flat Black Films, the studio behind the innovative animated films “Waking Life” and “A Scanner Darkly”.


A slew of new trademarks have made it out in Japan. There’s “Voice Forum” and “Step Forum” from Nintendo. And Puyo Puyo Narabe from SEGA. Namco Bandai grabbed a few names, too, such as Universe Accel and Cosmic Drive.

The question is, will any of these filings turn out to be actual products?
