A mix of old and new Zero Time Dilemma details from Famitsu
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
This week’s Famitsu has an four page feature on Zero Time Dilemma. The magazine recaps some previously-known information while also sharing extra tidbits.
Zero Time Dilemma is labeled as a “Dicision Game” (that is indeed the actual spelling). Each of the three teams are placed somewhere inside the underground nuclear shelter. Everyone is equipped with a timer bracelet on their left wrist, and the teams are given 90 minutes to find a way to escape the shelter. However, once the 90 minutes are up, the bracelet will administer drugs that cause them to fall asleep and lose all memories of what happened during that time.

Nintendo has revealed a new set of amiibo planned for Splatoon. On July 8, fans can pick up figures based on the Squid Sisters (Callie and Marie) as well as new colors for Inkling Girl, Inkling Boy, and Inkling Squid.
Here’s a trailer:
Note that the Squid Sisters won’t be sold individually in North America. Instead, they’ll be distributed in a double pack. Likewise, the Orange Squid amiibo is only coming via a 3-pack.
A small note by the way: Splatoon Koshien 2017 (tournament) has been confirmed, but details haven’t been shared just yet. We only know that the finals will be held in February at Game Party Japan 2017.
Thanks to the bunch of you for sending this in.

Update: Now “2017” – Nintendo press site says Zelda Wii U is due out in March 2017
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 74 Comments
Update (4/29): Bumped to the top. Nintendo has updated the press site, which now simply shows “2017” instead of “March 2017”.

Original (4/27): Nintendo made several announcements earlier today, including the news about the new Zelda game being delayed to 2017. However, the company didn’t say when the title will be launching specifically.
If Nintendo’s press site is anything to go by, we’ll be seeing the new Zelda next March. Since the NX version is launching simultaneously, that version would arrive at the same time. It’d definitely make sense to have Zelda out for NX’s launch – I feel like that’s the big point behind this latest delay.

Igarashi shows off three enemies in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
Koji Igarashi posted a new update on the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Kickstarter page today. We have a look at a trio of minor enemy designs: Seama, Dullahammer, and Morte.
Here’s an overview of each one:
Seama
The demon parasite of the sea! Water monsters are always essential, but we wanted to do something unusual this time around—that’s why our sea monster influence was the humble jellyfish.
It worked out well. But it’s so jiggly… it looks kind of delicious.
Dullahammer
A headless knight that attacks by swinging its own head like a flail. I love the idea of really large minor enemies—the sheer size makes you feel like you’ve met a challenging opponent.
The uni, or sea-urchin-like substance inside Dullahammer’s armor is an accent. He looks kind of delicious, too…
Morte
A lesser demon that lacks a corporeal form, this mud-like creature can’t hold its shape. If it could talk, it would probably yell something like, “Give me a physical form!” By the way, it doesn’t drop any skills. It’s a lesser demon, after all…
Head on over to the Kickstarter update here for a work-in-progress animation of a Morte attempting to engulf Miriam.
