3DS

Fez creator and Polytron Corporation founder Phil Fish has blasted the 3DS and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the portable.

In a series of tweets, Fish criticized the game due to his personal necessity of the Circle Pad Pro, and feels that it would be a better experience on the PlayStation Vita. He additionally believes that the dual-screen design of Nintendo’s handhelds and 3D implementation are nothing more than gimmicks.

Fish’s thoughts in full:

Started playing my first Monster Hunter game last night. On 3DS. It’s not exactly playable without that Circle Pad Pro atrocity… I don’t understand. Why would you even release a game like that on a platform like that? Why is it not out on let’s say… Vita? You know, the one where you could control the camera. It’s too bad because MH looks like it’s basically Phantasy Star Online but not in space. And I love me some PSO. The whole entire thing was a mistake if you ask me.

Also, I’m so sick of this dual-screen clamshell bulls***. A 2nd screen adds NOTHING. it’s a gimmick. 3D is a gimmick. it’s too bad the Vita isn’t a bigger hit because hardware wise it’s PERFECT. it has ONE AWESOME SCREEN, and TWO JOYSTICKS. there’s never been a single DS or 3DS that didn’t make me go “I wish this was on a single screen”. and i’ve never played any game ever anywhere where i was like “I wish this had a 2nd screen”. and absolutely f****** NOBODY ever went “I wish this had 2nd screen that is smaller and a different aspect ration and touch but not 3D”

Amazon has kicked off a new sale that celebrates the Easter holiday. A bunch of LEGO, Disney, and Skylanders games are on sale, as well as others.

You can find the full lineup of discounted Easter games here.


Capcom recently announced that Rachel would be joining the roster of playable characters in Resident Evil: Revelations HD’s Raide Mode. One fan asked on the company’s official forums if a 3DS update is a possibility so that Rachel could join the 3DS game’s Raide Mode as well.

The short answer is no. Capcom isn’t planning updates of any kind for Revelations on the 3DS. If you’re interested in playing as Rachel in Raid Mode, you’ll need to purchase the HD release.

According to Capcom’s Christian Svensson:

“Sorry guys, but there are no planned updates for the 3DS version of Revelations. We’ve added a fair amount of new content to the new edition which is fairly common to do.”
