The Legend of Legacy features a unique mapping system known as “Cartegraph”. Interestingly, it was something planned by SaGa designer Kyoji Koizumi for several years.

Director Masataka Matsuura spoke about The Legend of Legacy’s mapping system in an interview with Inside Games, noting:

“This system is from a project called ‘Cartegrapher’ (tentative title) that Koizumi-san has been working on for several years, and we decided to introduce its structure [in this game]. Koizumi-san suggested it, then fleshed it out with adjustments like rendering and such, which became the Cartegraph feature.”

“It was originally something very simple, but after adding the stereoscopic 3D to it, it became what we have today. When you look at it in 3D, it’s almost like those picture books that pop out, and it’s really fun!”

“By making maps as you go, I believe that you get a ‘sense of adventure’ while exploring the unknown wild lands. I think there will also be a sense of value to the maps themselves,” says Matsuura, adding that walking around and checking out the map will be fun in its own way.

Fans are doing some very neat things with amiibo these days. Take this custom amiibo for Yoshi, for example. He looks like he was plucked straight out of Yoshi’s Woolly World!
