Ono teasing something bigger than Super Street Fighter IV
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 6 Comments
Yoshi Ono has worked on some significant titles in his career, including the recent release of Super Street Fighter IV. But apparently something bigger is on the way. Ono posted a brief, cryptic message on his Twitter account, about something that will soon be coming:
“Super SF4 on sale!! SuperSF4 is nothing compared to what’s coming!!”
That really isn’t much to guess on, though hopefully we’ll see some sort of announcement in the near future. There honestly isn’t a clue here at all. Though if it’s Nintendo related, you can bet we’ll let you know about it!

Takumi talks the possibility of additional Ghost Trick titles
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 1 Comment
This information comes from Ghost Trick director Shu Takumi…
“[Laughs] Well, we’ll see about [Ghost Trick] two, three and four, but that depends on how well this game is received. We’ll wait and see on that one, but we definitely hope that people will enjoy the game enough. Maybe we will make a two, three and four.”
In terms of critical reception, I’m sure Ghost Trick will be received well. It’s just the sales I’m worrying about! In Japan, the title has performed decently so far, though I’m not sure how things will pan out in North America and Europe.

Wii hard drive patent discovered
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 2 Comments
Because Nintendo has, more or less, addressed Wii storage issues by further supporting the SD card, I wouldn’t expect a hard drive any time soon. However, there have been reports of similar technology provided to certain locations. You may remember thatwe told you about a hard drive-enabled Wii that was sent to a hospital back in 2008.

Rumor: Beta art shows new Pokemon
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors | 2 Comments
The image above is supposedly beta art from the new Pokemon anime, but it’s legitamacy hasn’t been confirmed 100%. In the picture, a new bat Pokemon called Koromori (besides Jessie), the evolution of Tsutaja and Mijumaru, and a new Pokemon next to Iris are shown. That’s the only information we have now, though if it’s true, these Pokemon will probably be showing up in Black/White.
