Last week, a rating for Rayman 3D was discovered on the OFLC website. Although it wasn’t entirely clear which platform the game was in development for, the 3DS seemed like a logical guess. Today the ESRB has confirmed that the title is indeed in the works for Nintendo’s upcoming handheld.

Unfortunately, unlike most listings on the ESRB website, a description was not provided with the rating. But considering the game has been rated in two territories, Rayman 3D will most likely turn out to be a game released sooner rather than later.

Although the images above only show screenshots of what was allegedly Burnout Freestyle for DS, the game was supposedly in the works for the Wii as well. For one reason or another, Criterion stopped working on the project and the titles were cancelled.

The image above is rumored to have come from Japanese magazine V-Jump, although no one has been able to verify that the logo is official. Meanwhile, Eurogamer Portgual has reported that the magazine will be unveiling the title in their next issue. To be honest, I’m quite skeptical about both points, but I wouldn’t mind if I was wrong!

Final Fantasy Type-0 is a pretty interesting name, don’t you think? The listing was found in Europe’s trademark database, along with a logo for Type-0 with “type zero” written in kanji. Of course, no one can be completely sure what the trademarks are, though Siliconera speculates that it could be a Final Fantasy spinoff. Square Enix will have a press conference next month to share a fair amount of announcements. Might Final Fantasy Type-0 be revealed?
