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

Although Rayman: Origins was not announced for a Nintendo platform at E3, a noticed posted on the game’s website stated that it could eventually end up on the 3DS and/or Wii. We still don’t have a confirmation that Origins will end up on Nintendo’s next handheld, but a listing from the OFLC is hinting that it may happen.

“Rayman 3D” has been rated by the OFLC, though we don’t know what platform the listing is for. Moreover, if it is for the 3DS, we don’t know if it is a port/spinoff of Origins. It’s certainly possible that the title could be for the 3DS, but don’t get your hopes up until Ubisoft has something official to share!

The previously Wii-exclusive downloadable game Retro City Rampage has been delayed until next year, according to the game’s creator, but an additional XBLA version of the game will be coming out alongside it as well.

For those that aren’t familiar yet, Retro City Rampage is a game made by Brian Provinciano, an indie game dev, that spoofs everything there is to spoof about the gaming industry nowadays. It’s a retro-inspired GTA-like game played in 8-bit style that was original supposed to come out this month. Now, the release date stands at “Fall 2011” with the 360 version coming next summer.

Talk about a kick to the groin for Wii owners!

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mario™ has a long history as a sports fan. Throughout his storied career he has pursued an interest in golf, tennis, baseball and go-karting, to name just a few. Now Mario’s tackling four different sports at the same time, all of them included on one disc for the Wii™ console. The game MARIO™ SPORTS MIX lets players jump into games of hockey, basketball, volleyball or dodgeball. The game launches on Feb. 7.

MARIO SPORTS MIX presents these four familiar sports – but with a Mario twist. Players can choose from a variety of playable Mushroom Kingdom characters and can even challenge Mario and friends directly by playing as their own Mii™ characters. Each game contains a number of Mushroom Kingdom power-ups that can turn the tide of a game in an instant, such as banana peels, green shells and even mini mushrooms. In over-the-top Mario sports fashion, each character can unleash his or her unique special move that ranges from Mario’s fire dunk in basketball to Yoshi’s rainbow attack in dodgeball.
