Kadokawa Games has re-dated Fate/kaleid Liner Prisma Illya for Japan. First scheduled for September 2013, it will now debut on July 31. Fate/kaleid Liner Prisma Illya has players collecting cards and fighting friends in a four-player battle mode.

Along with today’s screenshots, Sakurai passed along the following information on Miiverse:

Here’s some info on the Nintendo 3DS stage called Super Mario 3D Land! First, it advances by side-scrolling…

Then you continue into the valley–it’s in 3D Land, after all. The protruding stone blocks change the angles of the platforms.

After that, back to side-scrolling. Now it gets you moving–you’ll have to trot downhill here.

And finally, you get back on rails to go farther into the stage. It takes roughly two minutes to complete a lap, and at the end you go into a giant pipe that takes you back to the beginning. …I know this sequence goes above and beyond a traditional Pic of the Day, so consider this a little something extra on the side from me.

Sonic Stadium has put up a new interview with SEGA’s Stephen Frost and Kellie Parker. There are a number of highlights, including some teases for the game’s 3DS version.

We’ve picked out a few choice excerpts below. You’ll find the full interview over at Sonic Stadium.

XSEED gave Senran Kagura Burst a digital release. Unlike Europe, no physical version was made available – it only launched as an eShop download.

But as far as the future goes, XSEED is willing to consider physical launches for Senran Kagura games. While “it’s too late for us to go back and redo Burst”, XSEED explained, a physical release for other titles “wouldn’t be out of the question”. XSEED specifically pointed to the PS Vita project Shinovi Versus, but hopefully Senran Kagura 2 would be considered as well.
