3DS

MCV recently caught up with Nintendo’s UK marketing director Shelly Pearce to talk about all things 2DS. Topics include potential confusion with the introduction of the new portable, appealing to kids with the device, advertising and marketing, and the rest of the company’s handheld lineup for 2013.

You can find a roundup of Pearce’s comments below.


A remake of Zelda: Majora’s Mask was something that had been considered previously for the 3DS. Originally, it sounded like Nintendo was deciding between revisiting that game or doing something new with A Link to the Past. We all know how that turned out now.

The possibility of a Majora’s Mask is still something on gamers’ minds, however. Here’s what Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma said when recently asked about such a title happening:

“Please write that I laughed. Don’t make it sound like I laughed because I was troubled or inconvenienced or put out. I don’t want them to read anything into it. But if you want to say that I laughed, I think that would be a good answer.”

When asked how fans should interpret that, Aonuma said, “it’s really up to them. If they want to interpret my laughter as, ‘yeah, we’re making it’ or ‘no, we’re not,’ I guess that’s really up to them.”

As some have speculated, Pyroar is the evolution of Litleo in Pokemon X and Y. The creatur is a fire and normal-type Royal Pokemon with “a great mane of burning flames”. Its abilities include Rivalry and Unnerve.

The Pokemon Company also says that Pyroar can learn the Normal-type move Echoed Voice, “which makes its power grow with every turn. Its power will increase even if other Pokémon use it, so try Echoed Voice out with your allies in Double Battles and Triple Battles to experience its real value.”
