3DS

2013 is over and 2014 has officially started. Here’s a big jumbled mess of choices that our staff members had for their 2013 games of the year!

To make an argument against the thesis that 2013 was one of the all-time best years in gaming would be a foolhardy activity. The year saw the release of instant-classics like The Last of Us and Super Mario 3D World, as well as world-stoppers like Grand Theft Auto V and Pokémon X and YZelda made a big comeback on 3DS alongside Fire Emblem, and after years of no news we finally saw the release of Pikmin 3 on Wii U. An intro paragraph like this– no matter how densely packed– could never do justice the year we’ve had, so let’s let the staff of NintendoEverything do it instead.

After the break, you’ll hear from Brian (site admin and boss man), Austin (podcast man and writer guy), Jack (podcast man and writer guy), Spencer (writer guy), Patrick (writer guy) and Scott (video guy) about what they all found to be their absolute favorite games of 2013. Consider this list primarily subjective.

The Final List

Inazuma Eleven may finally make its debut in the US, if a listing on Nintendo’s website is to be believed. An inclusion on the company’s release calender page includes a Q1 2014 launch for “Inazuma Eleven” without any further details.

Nintendo has yet to announce any of the Inazuma Eleven titles for North America. Could this listing be nothing more than an error?

If it is indeed legitimate, we’re hoping that Inazuma Eleven 1-2-3 will make its way over rather than simply the first game, as the former product bundles together the series’ first three releases.

The next Senran Kagura game should be announced in just a matter of days. That’s not the only title series producer Kenichiro Takaki is working on, though.

Speaking to 4Gamer, Takai teased a brand new project that is said to be “new and challenging”. The unannounced title is planned for release this year in Japan.

Takai said:

“To start the new year, we’ll be announcing a lot of Senran Kagura news come January 8th, at the Senran Kagura Bakunyuu Hyper Presentation. We’ve kept you waiting a little longer for its release this time compared to the previous time, but I believe we’ll be able to reveal a great deal more [at the event]. In addition, we also have another title we’ll be releasing in 2014.”

“This title will be a new and challenging one, but things are going smoothly for now, so please look forward to it!. Please continue supporting the Senran Kagura series and Marvelous AQL this year as well!”

Amazon began selling various 3DS XL systems directly a couple of months ago. However, the situation may have reverted to the way things were originally.

At least for the time being, you can’t purchase any of the 3DS XL models straight through Amazon. You’ll have to make a purchase through another seller if you’re looking to buy a unit from the retailer’s site.

Nintendo and Amazon have maintained a noticeably strained relationship over the years. Cooperation between the two appeared to be improving after news spread regarding Amazon’s move to sell 3DS XL models directly, but may have soured yet again.

While it’s nothing too major, Bravely Default’s overseas release has made a few small changes to the game’s female characters. Some costumes cover up the females a bit more – as you’ll notice in the image above. Additionally, Bravely Default ups the age of some characters.
