BoxBoy! block size
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 5 Comments
BoxBoy! hasn’t been dated just yet, but Nintendo has already started issuing download codes to the press. It’s pretty small, with just 644 blocks of free space required.
By the way, something else we’re hearing is that the BoxBoy! review embargo lifts on Wednesday. Perhaps the game will be seeing a surprise launch this week?
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

IronFall Invasion surpasses 300,000 downloads
Posted on 9 years ago by Kirara Koneko(@KiraraKoneko) in 3DS eShop, News | 15 Comments
3DS eShop title IronFall Invasion has now surpassed 300,000 downloads.
There is now an update available that adds quite a bit of new features to the game.
New features for all players:
In the Controls menu of the game’s settings, the “Aim Sensitivity” and “Camera Sensitivity” sliders have been expanded with more increments to allow for finer tuning according to the player’s preference.
In Multiplayer: in the “free-for-all” game mode, players who leave a game before the end have their score reset.
In Multiplayer: the range of the “shock gun” item has been increased.
In Multiplayer: the damage and bullet statistics of the “grenade launcher”, “explosive rifle” and “shotgun” items have been adjusted accordingly to reflect balance issues noticed in user comments.
In Multiplayer: the respawn algorithm has been improved.
During a sprint, it is now easier to turn left and right.
The U-turn command (pressing back twice) has been improved to decrease involuntary U-turns; it is now necessary to press back twice in a faster way than before.
New features for players that purchased IRONFALL Invasion content:
In Multiplayer: when joining a quick online match, it is possible for players to filter out the “Tanks (Demo)” map from their quick online match search, to allow for more variety in the automatic selection of arenas.
In Multiplayer: players will now remain invincible for 4 seconds when they respawn.
In Multiplayer: players will now also receive credits if they finish in second place.
It is now possible to take cover while sprinting.
There is now an additional lock-on on the vertical (Y) axis in aim mode.
