Namco Bandai the latest company with a boxart screwup
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Capcom has been notorious for its boxart screwups in recent years. There was the “Resident Evil: Revelaitons” spelling error. And don’t forget the IGN watermark on Okami Wii’s box!
But Capcom isn’t alone. Other companies mess up boxarts as well – like Namco Bandai. The publisher is just a week away from launching Naruto Powerful Shippuden, though appears to have incorrectly spelled the game’s title.
Take a look at a photo of the 3DS box:

Something tells me that Namco Bandai meant “Naruto”…

Soul Hackers voice acting “cut back just a touch” for US release
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Devil Summoner Soul Hackers features a ton of voice acting. Atlus did manage to localize the game to its fullest, but voices have been “cut back just a touch” for the North American version.
According to Atlus’ Alex Armour:
“We did not shy away from making the game fully English voiced. It’s almost as much as the JP version but it is cut back just a touch. It’s still a very robust production for voicing.”
Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers is due out in April. The 3DS release will mark the first time that the game will be available in North America.
