Iwata: New StreetPass Mii Plaza games have been successful despite lack of promotion
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Nintendo recently pushed out four new StreetPass Mii Plaza games to little fanfare. For the most part, advertising was all but non-existent. Only recently did Nintendo prepare a Japanese commercial for one of the releases, Warrior’s Way – several weeks after the new offerings launched.
Despite the lack of promotion, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has reconfirmed that the new StreetPass Mii Plaza games have performed well financially. In just the span of a month, sales of the software reached 400 million yen.
Iwata told Toyo Keizai Online:

Carmack “extremely unlikely” to develop for Wii U, 3DS, PS Vita
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Don’t count on any Wii U, 3DS, or PlayStation Vita games from id Software founder and technical director John Carmack.
Carmack stated during a presentation at QuakeCon 2013 that he’s “extremely unlikely” to develop for any of the aforementioned platforms.
Journalist Britton Peele, who attended the event, shared the tidbit from Carmack on Twitter:
Carmack would love to develop for 3DS, Wii U, Vita … but it's "extremely unlikely to happen."

Earlier in his talk, Carmack said that he had interest in bringing Doom 3: BFG Edition to Wii U and PS Vita, but they were not supported due to a lack of interest.
XSEED: Pandora’s Tower did “pretty well”, tough finding the right “bigger games” for 3DS retail, future announcements
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
Pandora’s Tower is XSEED’s latest and likely final Wii title localized by the company. It came out during a fairly difficult period – once the Wii U was in the spotlight and at the beginning of the year.
Thankfully, Pandora’s Power did “pretty well”, according to executive vice-president Ken Berry. Had XSEED published the title during the 2012 holiday season, however, it “could have done much better”.
Berry told Siliconera:
“Pandora’s Tower has done pretty well, though not quite the level that The Last Story enjoyed. It probably could have done much better if we could have released it last holiday season rather than the first quarter of this year.”
