Everyone’s Favorite Amphibian is Back in Classic Coin Op Form

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – March 20, 2012 – Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. today announced Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition is arriving this Spring for the PlayStation®Network for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Nintendo’s WiiWare™ service on Wii™. The game will also be available for smartphone platforms.

Frogger’s coin-op thrills are back and better than ever in Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition! The arcade excitement of Frogger returns in time for its 30th anniversary celebrations with updates that are sure to delight fans old and new. Players can jump into the action with classic and brand-new game modes like Tile Capture, Battle Royale, Freak Out and more that expand the challenge of Frogger’s style of run-and-dodge gameplay. Players can even customize their game experience through a variety of different skins, from the modern neon style of HYPER ARCADE to the 8-bit sprites from Frogger, Castlevania and even CONTRA! Competitive types can also throw down against friends or the CPU in up to 4 player matches to find out who’s really the top frog!


The OFLC has brought along not one, but two interesting ratings today.

Unfortunately, the second listing is a bit of a downer. It seems that Namco Bandai will be selling One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP2 in Europe for the full price of a 3DS game.

Why is this a problem? In Japan, One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP wasn’t chopped up into two separate games. The package included both Wii ports of the One Piece: Unlimited Cruise. For the European version, however, Namco Bandai only added in the first title because of 3DS card size issues relating to the inclusion of five different languages.

Basically, whereas Japanese consumers paid for one complete games, it looks like European 3DS owners will be forced to dish out another round of cash for the second One Piece Unlimited Cruise SP port.

OFLC rates Vectorman 2

The OFLC, the Australian Classification Board, has rated Vectorman 2 for “multiple platforms”. This doesn’t confirm a WiiWare release, but we would hope that we’ll be seeing it on the Wii Shop Channel soon.

Yep. Smells like Epic Mickey 2 to me!
