Well, this game kind of turned out to be a disappointment. Impressions of those who have purchased the game in Europe haven’t been too positive. Ah well…

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

You know, you have to hand it to Nintendo of Europe. Not only are they localizing titles that gamers care about, but now they’re even beating America to the punch by launching the 3DS’ video service tomorrow.

As far as North America goes, there’s no word on when the application will go live. A representative would only say that it will be available “later this summer.” Another feature, Netflix, will also be released “soon”.

“Nintendo’s short-form video service that delivers special video content for Nintendo 3DS systems will launch in North America later this summer. In addition, Netflix members who have an unlimited plan starting at $7.99 a month and access to a broadband wireless Internet connection will soon be able to download a free Netflix application that allows them to watch movies and TV shows on their Nintendo 3DS systems at no extra charge. These services will add to the wealth of games and entertainment content currently available via the Nintendo eShop. For more information about Nintendo 3DS, visit http://www.nintendo.com/3ds.”

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

Believe it or not, the details below actually from a Japanese PlayStation magazine – specifically, Dengeki PlayStation. The magazine sometimes has reports on high profile games, such Theatrhythm Final Fantasy.

– Three modes of play: Music Game, SpotPass, Museum
– Three submodes for Music Game: Series, Challenge, another mystery mode
– Options are shown with your current party, listed with HP and level
– Swap out characters from your party
– Icons move across the screen
– Three icons: Red, yellow, green
– Red: Touch the screen briefly
– Yellow: Slide in the direction of the arrow or line of movement of the icon
– Green: Touch and hold down on the screen
– Field: Play to field, town and dungeon music. There’s just one rhythm line here. The difficulty is lower, and there are some more relaxed songs that require you to slide the touch pen up and down.
– Battle: There are four rhythm lines here. The music is higher tempo and the difficulty higher. It appears that you’ll be able to get critical attacks by timing your inputs perfectly.
