Capcom will release three Thunder-themed weapons for Monster Hunter 4 in March of next year as part of a collaboration with Dengeki magazine. The set will include the new Thunder Works hammer, returning classics Gunlance Voltiac Works, and Hunting Flute Blitz Works.

All of these weapons will be found in a quest titled, “To become Electric Blitz Hunters”. How does that tie into Dengeki? As it turns out, the publication’s name translates to Electric Blitz.

Nintendo will be renaming two of its official Facebook pages later this month.

On September 19, the “Nintendo 3DS” page will be known as “Nintendo Handheld Gaming”. And one day later, the “Wii U” page will be changed to “Nintendo Console Gaming”.

Not exactly the biggest piece of news we’ve had in the world of Nintendo as of late. Still, it’s an interesting move – if nothing else, it allows Nintendo to keep one page for its handhelds/home consoles in the future without having to create new ones.

Monster Hunter 4 is on the 3DS, a system which does have its limitations. Despite this, Capcom didn’t make any sort of compromises during development. All of Monster Hunter’s action gameplay has been kept in tact.

Director Kaname Fujioka told Dengeki Online in a new interview:

Tsujimoto [Ryozo, Producer] said “Absolutely let’s not do any trade-off.” On all action segments, you absolutely can’t remove anything if you add something. Our direction was that if 10 was thought to be the maximum, then we continued to add to it in order to transform that maximum into 13.

Remember Kaio: King of Pirates? It was one of Keiji Inafune’s first efforts – a brand new 3DS title – after leaving Capcom. The strange thing is, we’ve barely seen any updates on the game since its initial announcement.

Inafune recently told Joystiq that the situation is out of his hands, as he and his team only acted as the developer for Kaio. Marvelous was supposed to handle the publishing side of things, but the company has yet to announce a strategy for the game. Any and all inquiries will have to go through them.

Bravely Default: For the Sequel’s name may seem misleading to some. After all, it’s an upgraded version of the original game released in Japan last year.

Producer Tomoya Asano was asked to explain For the Sequel’s concept and meaning of the name in this week’s Famitsu. He said:

First off let me preface this by saying that along side “For the Sequel” we are moving along with the development of Bravely Default’s sequel. So this game, in anticipation of the sequel, is made to be a “Bravely Default for the purpose of the sequel.” The subtitle, “For the Sequel,” is a direct translation of that concept.

The 3DS will be receiving a significant advertising push from Nintendo this year. The company be looking to promote the handheld’s newest iteration, the 3DS. Additionally, Pokemon X/Y will receive advertising support starting this month, and Nintendo will place a continued emphasis on Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Nintendo UK marketing director Shelly Pearce told MCV:

“We saw an opportunity for an entry level gaming device. 2DS will have its own TV campaign and it will feature in our Pokémon advertising. The Pokémon X and Y campaign is on the same level as our Animal Crossing campaign. It’s going to be huge, and starts on TV later this month. We have more Animal Crossing activity, too. There will be a lot of handheld noise this peak season.”

Here’s a little fact that may surprise you: Animal Crossing: New Leaf has seen more ads than any other game this year.
