The latest Azure Striker Gunvolt update comes from Famitsu, who introduces rival character Acura.

Acura is “a psychic hunter who does not belong to any faction, but harbors a strong hatred towards the Sumeragi Group psychics. While he does not possess any psychic powers of his own, he is able to steal and analyze the psychic power factors of other psychics. He wields a weapon that mimics such powers and stands in Gunvolt’s way.”

Screenshots of Acura can be found above.

Nocturnal Entertainment’s Michael Shamgar has shared a sales update for Flowerworks HD: Follie’s Adventure. Although no specific figures were revealed, Shamgar did offer the following information to Nintendo Life:

• US sales started strongly, but tailed off rapidly after the initial launch sale ended. Price has now been dropped to $4 USD.
• European sales have been a real surprise — released two and half months later in EU — outselling the US lifetime figures by 50% within 3 weeks.
• Total sales are now close to 50% WiiWare (unit) lifetime sales, which has been available for around 5 years.

Nocturnal does have an idea in mind for its next games. The studio is currently working on a story-focused title, though “a smaller, simpler arcade game” may come first.

According to Shamgar:

We have a “story-driven” game in the concept stage, but that’s likely to be a big project that may need a lot of funding and development effort.

We may release a smaller, simpler arcade game based around user-generated content (level editor will come with the game). I’m very interested in the potential of using the GamePad for all forms of user content creation, extending to a complete game creation system.

At the recent China Joy gaming expo, China Mobile’s booth featured a few Nintendo characters in one of its displays. Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi (plus Sonic) were included – as shown in the photo above.

Kotaku approached China Mobile about their use of Nintendo characters, and was told that the company had received permission through various app developing and publishing partners to include them in promotional material.
