Amazon lists Wii U version of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 for $50, 3DS for $30
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Amazon has already put up listings for Activision’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 video game. Apparently, it’ll be priced lower on Nintendo platforms.
Amazon currently has the Wii U version priced at $49.99 while other console versions are set at $59.99. Also worth mentioning, the 3DS version of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will only cost $29.99. Most 3DS titles tend to cost $39.99.
These could be generous or tentative listings by Amazon, so you may as well as pre-order now if you have any interest. Then again, perhaps Activision has actually decided to set the price of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 $10 lower on Nintendo platforms.

Aonuma on A Link Between Worlds – stealth, Ravio, Nabbit comparisons, never considered for Wii U, more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Podcast Stories | 10 Comments
Spike just recently put up an interview with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma. It’s filled with lots of questions about A Link Between Worlds, such as stealth elements, Ravio’s role, comparisons to New Super Mario Bros. U’s Nabbit, and whether it was ever considered for Wii U (nope). Aside from that, there are also some off-beat topics like localizing Marvelous: Another Treasure (directed by Aonuma many years ago).
You can find some excerpts from the interview below. Spike’s full piece is located here.

Aonuma – Zelda: A Link Between Worlds impacted slightly because of 2DS, game length talk
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds initially seemed like a game that makes heavy use of the 3DS’ 3D features. While that’s still the case, it was modified slightly for those playing in 2D. Nintendo needed to ensure that the game could still be completed if experienced on a 2DS.

Namco Bandai Europe domain registrations include Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 2, One Piece: Unlimited World Red
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
Namco Bandai Europe has a whole bunch of new domains under its belt. Last month, the company registered shortpeace-game.com, tenkai-knights-game.com, wwvs-game.com, narutorevolution-game.com, pacmanghostlyadventures2.com, one-piece-unlimited-world-red.com, awakened-legends-game.com, and awakened-legends-vs.com.
Some of these domains are particularly noteworthy. The domain “pacmanghostlyadventures2.com” suggests Namco Bandai has interest in making a sequel to this month’s game, while “one-piece-unlimited-world-red.com” hints at an overseas release of the upcoming Japanese 3DS title.
Pokemon X and Y are a hit with Japanese college students
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Early Japanese sales of Pokemon X/Y stemmed from college student business – not kids.
Media Create points out in its latest report that children are occupied with school exams. However, X and Y have been a huge hit with older players, or more specifically, people in college.
Pokemon X/Y’s sales should take an interesting turn over the next few weeks as the younger demographic will have a better opportunity to purchase the games.
