“It’s a surprise – we were expecting it much closer to Christmas. But I suppose it gives Nintendo the opportunity to get it front and centre in people’s minds nice and early. In my experience, you don’t launch a product that early to Christmas unless you’re confident in it – and going to spend a lot of money on it. We’re reassured that Nintendo is going to give it some decent backing in Q4.” – a senior publishing source

It would make sense for Nintendo to release the 3DS in time for the holiday season. And when Nintendo first announced the system, we heard that it will launch before March 2011. I’d like to hear an official confirmation before I fully believe anything, though!

– Director: “We wanted to make a new type of RPG battle. We wanted a system that merged real time battles with command selection, something that had an action feel but would also make you think. After much trial and error, we came to the current form.”
– Magic Circle will stay even after your magic hits your opponent
– Director says Magic Circles are important
– Director: “Combat in The Last Story is powered by a system that blends action with command selection.”
– Producer “Before making characters and stages, you have to create the battle structure.”

I originally thought about postponing this game night until the 31st, but I had so much fun at last week’s that I couldn’t resist the chance to do it again! Let me start by thanking everyone that made me lose horribly at Mario Kart, and wish for them all to come back this week and play The Conduit with us! I have chosen The Conduit as our game for this weekend for various reasons, but since a lot of people are probably upset I didn’t choose something like MH3, let me make my case clear:

The way I figured, neither me nor Valay have Tatsunoko vs. Capcom yet, so we’re holding off on that game until one of us gets it. As for Monster Hunter, we want to give players of the game adequate time to purchase/get acquainted with it before forcing them into crazily intense battles with little to no experience. I will say, however, that if you want to play some Tri with me, feel 100% free to contact me and we’ll set something up!

That being said, there’s no poll for the game this week. Just make sure you let me or Valay know via email or the forum if you want to play! Also, if you haven’t sent your friend codes in for the database I’m compiling, make sure you do that as soon as possible!
