Karous -The Beast of Re:Eden- hitting the North American 3DS eShop next week
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Karous -The Beast of Re:Eden- is officially heading west, courtesy of publisher Circle Entertainment. Nintendo’s website has the game listed for a release in North America on April 30. Pricing is set at $6.99.
Here’s the official overview for the game:
Two sisters escape their fate as research subjects and fight to survive using aircrafts of war.
Karous -The Beast of Re:Eden- is a 3D vertical shoot ’em up game. This game allows players to design their own aircraft by letting them choose which weapons and items they take with them into battle.
The player’s aircraft can use shields, different shots, bombs, and swords. Each of these will also level up the more they’re used and increase in power. Additional weapons and items will unlock as the player progresses, as well.
Karous -The Beast of Re:Eden- features over 100 missions to complete along with a number of achievements in addition to boss battles.
Unlike other, traditional shooting games, Karous’ mission system gives the player the freedom to follow multiple, branching paths which can lead to different endings.
Karous -The Beast of Re:Eden- should be coming soon to Europe as well. Just last month, the title received a rating from PEGI.

A look at the cancelled SNES JRPG Brimstone
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 14 Comments
Way back in 1994, American developer Teknocrest was making a SNES JRPG for Taito called “Brimstone”. Not much is known about the project, but one programmer shares the following information about its development:
Yeah it was basically another RPG that Teknocrest “promised” to make for Taito.
Funny thing is they had all this artwork, but no programmer. So I was hired to make a SNES “demo” of Brimstone.
Anyways I made something up in about a week, and Taito greenlighted the project.
But about a month later they decided to put Brimstone on hold and put priority on porting Lufia….and it all went downhill from there…
Unseen64 has a few art pieces from Brimstone here.
