– Floors are single System Area dungeons
– Their creation is influenced by setting one of six “Floor Codes” in the Tag Mode settings
– Floor theme based on the code you use
– Floor might be one that is easy to get lost in, or has extreme height variations

– This includes Potions, High Potions, Aerial Slam, and Ether
– All SP is lost if you die in the dungeon
– Touch screen shows the avatar of other players during a Tag Mode exchange
– Touch the avatars to get a “Scratch Card”
– If you get the right scratch card, you can receive bonus commands and avatar parts

– Avatar will be surrounded by stars, musical notes, and hearts when happy
– Sora’s luck will increase, so you have a greater chance at collecting items

As it turns out, Level-5’s Jiro Ishii is not making an Ace Attorney game. Ishii and Capcom’s Shu Takumi did have dinner the night before, but the “Gyakuten XX” part of the first reported tweet appears to be nothing more than a joke with Square Enix’s Jin Fujisawa. At least we can still look forward to Time Travelers from Ishii.

“A misunderstanding seems to be spreading, so let me say that I’m currently working only on Time Travelers.”

Thanks to Taylor and Robert for the tip!

For quite some time, it looked like the boxart for Epic Mickey would be pretty bland, and would only feature Mickey’s ears. GameStop, however, recently updated their game page, showing a new boxart for the title. I’d say the updated image looks much better. What do you guys think?

Shantae shakes and shimmies back into the gaming scene this October in her first adventure since the cult classic Shantae was released for the Game Boy Color™ in 2002. The all new sequel offers a powder keg of high octane, hair-whipping, hip shaking action, exclusively available on DSiWare™. WayForward sets the animation bar higher than ever with thousands of frames of animation, huge multi-sprite bosses, and a quest so big it’s bursting at the seams.

Product Summary: Guide “half-genie” Shantae through haunted wastes, burning deserts, enchanted forests, dripping caverns and deadly labyrinths. Discover magical attacks, brew zombie coffee, save golden babies, and master the art of belly-dancing to transform Shantae into more powerful creatures. Use all your powers to foil the nefarious lady pirate Risky Boots and save Sequin Land from certain doom!
