PixelMaker, an eShop app that allows users to easily design images and share them on Miiverse, is now making its way to 3DS. This will be the first title on the portable from developer Nostatic Software.

The studio recently announced via Twitter:

PixelMaker previously landed on Wii U in May. It’s currently running on the New 3DS, but Nostatic hopes to have it available on the original 3DS as well.

Back in 2009, Vicarious Visions and Activision’s multiplayer party title Mixed Messages was brought to DSiWare. It was sort of like Pictionary, with the steps essentially taking place as follows:

1. One person draws a sentence
2. The system is passed to another player, who attempts to draw what the sentence was about
3. The system is passed on again, and another player needs to guess what they believe the original phrase was

This process continues until you run out of players – of which 21 were supported.

Here’s an old trailer:

We’re now hearing that Mixed Messages is returning after more than seven years. The specifics are a bit unclear currently, but we do know that it will be a 3DS eShop game. If we hear anything more about it (such as when it’s coming), we’ll let you know.

Last month, we shared some excerpts from a Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice developer interview included in a recent issue of Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream. If you missed it, head on over here for tidbits about Maya’s return, scrapped ideas, and more.

What we translated didn’t actually cover Nintendo Dream’s entire discussion. There were also several pages dedicated entirely to talk about the different characters in the game, ranging from big ones like Phoenix and Apollo up through new additions such as Ahlbi. We now have an extremely lengthy summary based on the interview with Motohide Eshiro (producer), Takeshi Yamazaki (director), and Takuro Fuse (co-director).

If you decide to proceed, be aware that there are some light spoilers. The summary covers characters included in multiple cases.

Page 1: Phoenix Wright, Apollo Justice, Athena Cykes
Page 2: Maya Fey
Page 3: Rayfa Padma Khura’in (bonus: early concept art)
Page 4: Nahyuta Sahdmadhi (bonus: early concept art)
Page 5: Case 1 characters
Page 6: Case 2 characters
Page 7: Case 3 characters
