PUZZLE BOBBLE UNIVERSE BURSTING ONTO NINTENDO 3DS

The classic puzzle series lifts-off into another dimension

London (21 January 2011) – Square Enix Ltd., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX® interactive entertainment products in Europe and other PAL territories, today announces PUZZLE BOBBLE UNIVERSE™, the latest adventure in the classic puzzle series, is heading to Europe and PAL territories exclusively on the NINTENDO 3DS™. The game is due for release during the 3DS Launch Period.

PUZZLE BOBBLE UNIVERSE sees brothers Bub and Bob facing more bubble trouble as they stumble across an unmanned spaceship and a distant cry for help. Unknown to the dinosaur duo, several surrounding planets have “doors” in their vicinity which have been opened, releasing floods of bubbles that are rapidly turning into hazardous space-debris. With Bob captured by the Boss, Bub must act fast to ensure the future safety of all the planets and their inhabitants.

This information comes from Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton…

“With all the conversions, when we do it in Europe we’ve got to do the whole of Europe. So it’s multiple languages. It has to be viable. We’ve got so much on our plate at the moment. The most important one is in the first quarter this year. Kirby’s Epic Yarn is the most important title. We’ve got some great product coming out. On top of that, when we add in 3DS, it’s just so much. We’ve released quite a lot of RPGs on the Wii in the UK. It’s an area that’s been growing for us. It’s up to the market. We never write anything off.”

Eventually, I believe The Last Story will be localized for North American and European markets. It just seems like a high-profile release for Nintendo. It’s a new game from the creator of Final Fantasy, bundles were made available in Japan, etc.

First, Nintendo’s Bill Trinen commented on the possibility of new dungeons in Ocarina of Time 3D…

“I wouldn’t anticipate any extra dungeons.”

Trinen then went on to discuss improvements that have been made for the 3DS version…

“One of his long regrets was not necessarily the layout, or the puzzles or the difficulty of the water temple but the fact that [pause] the water temple involved putting on the iron boots on and off, taking them on, taking them off, taking them on, taking them off, to move up and down in the water. To do that you had to press the start button , you’d have to switch over to your inventory screen, you’d have to scroll around to get down to your iron boots and then, of course, in between, you’re switching out the iron boots with the hookshot and things like this…. He (Aonuma) feels he’s finally able to provide the experience the way it should have been in the water temple and that’ s with, on the touch panel, you have access to your inventory, so instead of having to scroll down, to find all the different items you’re going to have very simple and intuitive access to all the items and the equipment you’re going to need. Basically, with the new interface it means that instead of spending a good deal of time pushing around through your inventory, you’re able to focus on being Link, being in the adventure, solving puzzles and so on.”

Trinen also revealed that players will be able to map four items to quick-select items. So, basically, it appears that Ocarina of Time 3D is more of an enhanced port rather than a remake. Graphical improvements, interface changes, 3D graphics will all available, but there won’t be much, if any new content.

– Many ways to interpret the Dream Drop Distance name
– One interpretation relates to the game’s action elements
– “Dropping” from heights and “Distance” involving gameplay which take advantage of 3D and the ability to move long distances
– Yasushi Yasue: “We want to place particular focus on the form of the new Kingdom Hearts action. We want to give the game the feel of breaking speed. We’re doing a lot of trials on the development hardware, and when you actually play it, the control feel will be even better than it looks.”
– Some differences in gameplay from past titles in the series
– Switch off between Sora and Riku throughout
– Yasue” “The strategy and tempo all have a fresh feel”
– Tetsuya Nomura: “As always, we’ll have plenty of surprises. To show these surprises, we selected the 3DS, which is hardware that lets us challenge new things.”
– Storyline is “the prologue for the final battle as the story approaches the final stages for the current series just ahead of the Kingdom Hearts series’ 10th anniversary”

Thanks to Thomas N for the tip!
