“There is a lot of opportunity to engage with the younger audience on Sonic with the new entry-level Nintendo 2DS console. From launch to post launch we’ll be focused on kids. Peak season this year is without doubt a big celebration of Nintendo franchises and Sonic sits high on every platform gamers list of ‘must play’ titles.”

– Nintendo product manager Dani Robinson


Sonic: Lost World is out now in Europe, and on October 29th in North America.

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.

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.

You can find some excerpts from the interview below. Spike’s full piece is located here.

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.

Aonuma told GameSpot:

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.

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.
