Digimon fans have been pushing Namco Bandai to localize Digimon World Re:Digitize Decode, the series’ latest video game entry. One particular petition has already been “signed” by over 16,000 people.

If nothing else, Namco Bandai is aware of the support fans have shown towards Decode thus far. UK PR executive Joseph Walsh wrote on Twitter earlier this week:


Namco Bandai would probably be the only hope for a localization of Digimon World Re:Digitize Decode at this point. XSEED, a company that tends to localize niche Japanese titles, previously said the company would be unlikely to pick up Decode for a North American release.

Nintendo has released new screenshots for Zelda: A Link Between Worlds showing two newly-revealed mini-games: Treacherous Tower and Octoball Derby. Here’s the overview of each shared by the Big N today:

Treacherous Tower involves Link fighting his way through numerous floors filled with a variety of enemies via three difficulty levels, while Octoball Derby sees Link step up to bat in a baseball-inspired minigame situated in Lorule where rupees are earned by smashing pots and knocking over enemies littering the field.

Devil Survivor 2: Break Record has been delayed in Japan, Atlus announced today. It’ll now ship sometime next year as opposed to fall 2013. Atlus said it hopes to improve Break Record’s quality with the extra development time.

31st October 2013 – Prepare to set foot on the magical soil of Hyrule once more when The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds launches on 22nd November for the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles. As a follow-up to the 1991 Super NES classic The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, get ready to conquer new dungeons, fresh puzzles, and experience new gameplay mechanics which open up the way Link explores Hyrule and the foreign land of Lorule, a corrupted, parallel version of Hyrule.

The story begins in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds with an ominous threat looming over Hyrule. A mysterious, wizardly figure named Yuga has been appearing throughout the land, transforming the kingdom’s seven sages into paintings and spiriting them away into another world. With the future of Hyrule at stake, Link must therefore step into the unknown realm of Lorule and stop Yuga’s nefarious plans in order to restore peace and harmony to his home world.

Nintendo has put up the entire transcript for its latest financial results briefing held in Japan a few hours ago. You can find it here.

We’ve already covered the presentation extensively in summary form. If you’re interested in an overview, check out this post.

Bravely Default: For the Sequel will feature bosses from Square Enix’s older DS RPG, Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light.

According to the latest issue of Jump, Lucifer and Beelzebub are included as mega bosses. Players will need to touch a black dragon icon which appears on the lower mini-map screen in order to fight each.

As far as actually gaining access to Lucifer and Beelzebub, other players will need to pass them to you via Wi-Fi communications before the demons invade your realm. Some of the finer details are a bit unclear at present, but we should get a better idea of things by the time Bravely Default: For the Sequel launches.
