This information comes from Satoru Iwata…

“Whenever we make a new game console, we’ve done it without throwing away buttons and the directional pad. The reason for that it’s better to have them, because buttons and directional pads benefit gameplay response. Taking this into account, Nintendo isn’t planning on completely ditching buttons, nor is Nintendo thinking of taking tablets as they are today and implementing them in a game console.”

You can count on seeing a number of buttons on Project Cafe’s controller… 8, in fact, if rumors are to be believed.

Tales of the Abyss 3DS was just recently given a June 30 release date for Japan. Fortunately, North American gamers won’t have to wait too long to receive the game as well. Nintendo Power revealed in their latest issue that the port will arrive in the states sometime this fall. Namco Bandai might make all of this official very soon, as community manager Rich Bantegui teased something “really cool” for Tales fans next week.

Something tells me that this game won’t hold over hardcore Wii gamers for the summer… On the bright side, we’ll be getting Ocarina of Time 3D around the same time, but I admit that doesn’t help out those who haven’t purchased a 3DS.

– Primary attack methods are the chain and sub weapons
– Pointer turns red when you can grab something with the chain
– Yellow gauge builds up when you grab and tub on something
– Chain’s attack power increases as the gauge builds
– Chain can also be powered up by defeating bosses
– Standard button presses for sub weapons
– One sub weapon at a time
– Use the chain and weapons together
– Example of the above: Hold down an enemy with the chain, move in for an attack with your weapon
– Begin the game with just a sword
– Sword balances speed and power
– Gain additional weapons as you progress
– One such weapon is a dual sword
– Weapons will get stronger with time, just like the chain
– Gain materials after defeating normal enemies and exploring towers
– Give these weapons to Graiai to power up the weapons
