Nintendo looking to sell 5 million 3DS units in Japan this year
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Nintendo is looking to sell more than five million 3DS units in Japan this year, Satoru Iwata said during a Monster Hunter 4 event held earlier today.
Iwata stated:
“There are more and more media reports suggesting that things aren’t going very well for the dedicated gaming hardware business. But that’s not true, at least for the 3DS in Japan.”
Iwata mentioned that more than 5.5 million 3DS units were sold last year. With Monster Hunter 4 due out next month, Nintendo’s goal should be attainable.

Here’s a Podcast – Episode 55!
Posted on 10 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in 3DS, Features, Podcast, Wii U | 1 Comment
It’ll make more sense by the end of the podcast.
Where’s Laura!? Unfortunately due to some unintentional scheduling conflicts, she had to miss this episode. Filling in for her is someone you may recognize name of “Aysha”, who takes over all of Laura’s regular duties in order to keep our podcast ship sailing. We talk about Animal Crossing vs. Harvest Moon, how Nintendo should market Wii U, and whether or not gameplay-driven games are going “out of style”– in addition to news, listener mail, etc.
Despite the temporary loss of everyone’s favorite podcast gal, I think we managed to scrape together something pretty dang good! Enjoy.

Monster Hunter 4 Arena Challenge details
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Capcom updated the official Monster Hunter 4 website once more with Arena Challenge content. The page confirms that the feature will be back, but with some additions and changes.
You can find screenshots of the Arena Challenges and details below.
– Arena Challenge returns
– This has players going up against monsters using pre-set gear and items
– Has two new stages and features
– Test your hunting skills to see if you have what it takes to face the fearsome monsters in the arena
– Start a challenge by speaking with an NPC in the Arena counter
– Need to choose a set of gear to your liking
– Players’ times are recorded after beating a challenge
– Top-3 best times ranked for the quest
– Additionally, it will also indicate the ranking of other players whom you’ve shared Guild Cards with
– Can’t carry in your own equipment or items
– Also can’t carry material out of the arena
– Food effects won’t affect you in here
– After entering a challenge, players start out at the base camp
– Prep yourself here before going in
– When in the arena, you’ll have access to the fence, which is activated by a button
– Fence is useful while fighting a set of two monsters or more, by allowing you to split them apart and take care of them one at a time
– Need to time the fence button right
– If you don’t, you’ll end up having to fight two monsters with much less space
– Monster Hunter 4 has various types of arenas
– One area has two elevation levels, but no fences
– Stages usually vary based on the type of monster you’re up against
