Junichi Masuda on Exp. Share changes in Pokemon X/Y
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Pokemon X/Y makes a number of changes to the core Pokemon experience fans have become accustomed to. One of these modifications pertains to the Exp. Share item.
This time around, Exp. Share is a key item. All Pokemon participating in a battle also receive 100 percent of the experience while the creatures who are left out still earn 50 percent.
Game Freak director Junichi Masuda spoke about the new approach to experience sharing while speaking with Game Informer this month. He said:
There are so many Pokemon living in the Kalos region, you can encounter a different Pokemon just about every time you go into the tall grass. We wanted players to try raising lots of Pokemon, which is why we changed how the Exp. Share item worked. Of course, we also made it so players could turn off the Exp. Share and still enjoy the game if they wanted to.

Square Enix trademarks “Curtain Call” in Europe
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Square Enix localized Theatrhythm Final Fantasy for the west, so it’d only make sense for the sequel, Curtain Call, to make its way to overseas territories as well.
If a European trademark is anything to go by, Square Enix is already planning a western release. Deculture discovered a filing for “Curtain Call” in Europe, which is almost certainly a reference to Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call.
While not official, hopefully this is a sign that we’ll be seeing the rhythm game in the US and Europe in the future.
