SEGA’s latest trailer for Hero Bank has brought us a bunch of extra details about the game. Read the latest roundup of information below.

– Kaito Gosho can buy weapons, traps, and more while the fight is happening
– Shop has crazy prices for items such as an electric trap
– Need to spend money to win
– Kaito Gosho is ultimately a kid saddled with a one billion yen debt in real life that he’s going to have to pay off somehow
– Can perform a clean knockout punch or pinfall opponents
– Doing the latter while their hit points are still decent can be dangerous, as they’ll have enough strength to push you off
– Will need to extort exhort the crowd while fighting
– This charges your money/popularity gauge and helps increase your earnings when you win

Update: Watsham has confirmed that 3DS has the best-selling version (see below).

Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham shared an interesting sales tidbit about Mutant Mudds Deluxe on Twitter just a few minutes ago.

According to Watsham, sales of the Wii U version have outperformed the Steam, PS3, and PS Vita release combined. He said:

For what it’s worth, Mutant Mudds Deluxe has been out on Wii U longer than the PS3 and PS Vita versions by a few months, but the PC release hit Steam nearly a year prior.

As for the 3DS, that version tops all, Watsham says:

There hasn’t been much Wii U news coming out of Japan these days, but this week’s Famitsu does have a release date for Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.

Leaks indicate that the title will be available for Wii U and PS3 on May 15. Pricing is set at 6,980 yen. The latest leaks don’t mention any of Transformed’s other versions such as 3DS.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed originally launched for Wii U on November 18, 2012, so this has been a long time coming for Japan.
