Protect Me Knight sequel heading to the Japanese 3DS eShop next month
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Ancient is developing a sequel to Protect Me Knight, a Japanese indie title for the Xbox 360.
The new game features four-player local co-op, “about ten times” as much content as the original, and music from Yuzo Koshiro music. Two new characters have been shown thus far: an older knight on a toy horse and an archer.
A price point for the Protect Me Knight hasn’t been announced, though it will be “about twice” the Xbox 360 version given the large increase in content.
Protect Me Knight is heading to the Japanese 3DS eShop in September. At the moment, an international release hasn’t been decided.
Check out some footage from the original Protect Me Knight below:

Since The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time’s launch, most had been in agreement that Sheik is a woman. After all, Sheik is Zelda when all is said and done.
But just to clear up any potential uncertainty, Polygon caught up with Nintendo senior product marketing manager Bill Trinen for an official answer. He told the site: “The definitive answer is that Sheik is a woman — simply Zelda in a different outfit.”

PhobosLab has ironed out XType Plus’s major bug (freezes systems when accessing online leaderboards) and has already submitted an update. It’s currently in testing, and if all goes well, it should be out soon.
That means XType Plus should be up on the Wii U eShop in the very near fuure. Also, those who purchased the game in Europe before its removal will be able to update their game in order to patch the bug.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Muteki officially announces Dragon Fantasy: Book I for 3DS
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 2 Comments
The 3DS version of Dragon Fantasy: Book I was made official through an official announcement published by Muteki today.
The game will feature several additions/changes, including:
– Ogden now has allies so that he doesn’t have to grind by his lonesome
– Bottom screen gives players info such as a map, quest log, inventory screen, beastiary
– Improved inventory system with sorting and filtering
– Purchase multiple items at once
– 3D support
Random battles have also been removed from Dragon Fantasy: Book I – for the most part anyway. Battles are still random on the world map, but not in towns, caves, dungeons, or caverns. In these areas, monsters will appear on screen and will take a step each time the hero does. You can choose to face monsters on their own terms or even avoid them completely.
Dragon Fantasy: Book I is currently “in the final testing phases before submission”. You can find screenshots from the game above.
