A neat Japanese 3DS game was announced – and subsequently released on the eShop – during the latest Nintendo Direct. Skipmore and Flyhigh Works’ Drancia Saga is now available.

Drancia Saga is an action game with simple controls. Only three buttons are used: left, right, and A for the following:

– Push different direction to turn
– Push same direction to dash
– A button to jump
– Push A again while jumping for downwards attack

There are over 50 playable characters in the game. Also, there are more collaboration characters that are unlocked by having select games installed on the same 3DS. When selecting a collaboration character, the first area stage and music will also change to fit its setting.

The collaboration titles are:

– Urban Trial: Free Style
– Gunman Clive
– Gunman Clive 2
– Geki Yaba Runner
– Petit Novel Series: Harvest December
– Witch & Hero
– Witch & Hero II
– Brunch Panic!
– Fairune
– Fairune 2
– The Legend of Dark Witch
– The Legend of Dark Witch 2

Note: extra characters are unlocked if you have both Gunman Clive, Witch & Hero and The Legend of Dark Witch games.

Diffusion Million Arthur from Square Enix ended up on the Japanese 3DS eShop in October 2014. In two months, service for the free-to-play title will end.

Players will no longer be able to buy MiraCoins as of September 30. That will of course be followed up with the full closure on October 31. As for the reasoning behind Diffusion Million Arthur’s closure on 3DS, Square Enix feels that it will be difficult to continue providing a satisfactory experience to users.
