Shin Megami Tensei IV Final gets first review in Famitsu
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 8 Comments
In a recent issue, Famitsu published one of the first Shin Megami Tensei IV Final reviews. From four editors the RPG received scores of “9”, “9”, “8”, and “9”. That amounts to a total of 35 out of 40.
I do think we’ll be seeing Shin Megami Tensei IV Final in the west eventually. But since it’ll be awhile before that happens, we’ve gone ahead and translated Famitsu’s full review. It’ll give you some idea as to how it’s being received in Japan thus far from one outlet. Overall, the consensus seems to be that it’s easier to get into that its predecessor.
Head past the break for our full translation.

Back in 2013, Temple of Yog developer CHUDCHUD Industries made Dumpster Dive! for mobile platforms. In the studio’s own words, the game “is an endless runner through garbage, a trash surfing, food-fetching simulator.”
Dumpster Dive! is now planned for both Wii U and 3DS. CHUDCHUD Industries’ Cody Diefenthaler shared the news in a brief Twitter message, which you can find below. You can also see the original trailer in the attached tweet.
I'm gonna port Dumpster Dive! to #WiiU and #N3DS. Any #Nindies punks out there?! https://t.co/gPUrGiHWry

Splatoon producer on pre-launch jitters, possibility of a sequel
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 19 Comments
GamesMaster spoke with Splatoon producer Hisashi Nogami in its latest issue for a brief interview. At one point, Nogami reflected on how there were some jitters within the team before launch, as they weren’t sure how the multiplayer-focused game would be received.
Nogami told the magazine:
“We’ve dealt with online multiplayer in a number of titles up until now, but this was the first time we’d taken up the challenge of releasing a package game where multiplayer was the main mode. We were not 100 percent sure about how a few sections would be received, and so we’re really happy to see them being well received not only by experienced online gamers, but by a really broad range of players including children and female players too; it’s a real confidence boost. If we have the chance in the future, I’d like to build on online gameplay even more.”
GamesMaster followed those comments by pressing Nogami on the possibility of Splatoon 2 happening one day. When asked, he responded with the following:
“We want to raise this new IP with care, so maybe we’ll get a chance to make it happen if players support us.”
Splatoon updates technically ended last month. But at the Splatoon Koshien 2016 finals a couple of weeks ago, Nogami hinted at possible new content for the shooter.
