As nice as this video is, it’s a shame that we can’t see who specifically made each Flipnote…
Artoon tidbits: Cancelled third-person shooter, new adventure game
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Artoon was swallowed up by AQ Interactive in 2010. Prior to this, however, the company was apparently creating a third-person shooter. An ex-staffer listed the mystery project on his LinkedIn profile, which states that it was being made for an unspecified system between December 2006 and February 2008.
This wasn’t the only bit of information included on this person’s CV. He’s now involved with an unannounced adventure game that has been in development since 2009. Although production was halted so that Artoon could finish Club Penguin Game Day, it is still in the works and could be published by Marvelous AQL sometime down the road.

Who else all but forget about this WiiWare title? It was briefly “announced” almost two years ago, and then we never heard about it again. I’m wondering if it’s still in development…
Fan makes Super Mario 64 sequel
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Videos | 0 comments
At one point, it did seem as though Nintendo had plans to make a direct sequel to Super Mario 64. This project, unfortunately, never saw the light of day.
…And that’s where Super Mario Star Road comes in. Sure, it’s not made by Nintendo, but it’s the only Super Mario 64 sequel we’ll probably ever see. It features more than 120 stars, over 30 areas, lots of new music, and more.
You can find download links and more details about the project in the video description here.

Skyward Sword’s potentially awesome character connection to Twilight Princess
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
This could be one of the craziest Easter eggs in Skyward Sword… if it really is an Easter egg, that is. But there are some interesting similarities in what I’m about to describe.
So, Skyward Sword has a pub called the Lumpy Pumpkin. Twilight Princes has a similar location in Castle Town called Telma’s Bar. Pumm, Kina, Rusta, and Keet can all be found at the Lumpy Pumpkin on a regular basis. The same goes with “The Group”/”The Resistance”, who spend their time at Telma’s Bar. This group consists of Telma, Auru, Ashei, and Shad.
What’s most intriguing is how these characters’ looks are quite comparable. Pumm has his hair up and is a bit on the chubby side like Telma, and Rusta’s hair is very similar to Auru’s (they’re both old men, too!). Kina and Ashei look somewhat similar, as do Keet and Shad.
If this is at all confusing, I suggest you take a look at the comparisons in the gallery above. Comparison images from left to right: Ashei/Kina, Auru/Rusta, Shad/Keet, and Telma/Pumm.
I feel like this has to be more than a coincidence since Skyward Sword contains tons of references to past Zelda titles. What do you guys think?
Thanks to PointSkyward for the tip!
