Super Mario 3D Land is, thus far, having more success than Super Mario Galaxy. 3D Land sold through 8 million copies while Galaxy moved 7.66 million units through their first 13 months on the market.


Japan could be pointed to as the primary reason for Super Mario 3D Land’s success. However, 3D Land sold 1.85 million copies in Japan whereas Galaxy’s sales stood at 934,000.

Galaxy has sold slightly more in the west. But thanks to sales from Japan, 3D Land is outpacing Galaxy worldwide.

Amazon has Tales of the Abyss 3DS in stock for $30. It’s not extremely rare, but the game has been a somewhat tough find over the past few months. Plus, it’s a great game – I’ve played through the entire thing and would absolutely recommend it (though it’s not for everyone!).

Level-5 has big plans for Fantasy Life in 2013. Despite releasing the game last year, new content is coming to the Japanese title in the future.

Players can look forward to online play, a level cap raise, brand new quests, world changes, and more through DLC. Pricing and release date information for the downloadable content has not been announced.

When Nintendo published Iwata Asks: Fire Emblem: Awakening in Japanese last year, a few interesting tidbits were translated from the discussion. For instance, we heard that an idea for a new Fire Emblem set in a modern world was thrown around, as was one concept for a title set on Mars.

Now that the Iwata Asks is available in English, we have the full English translation and relevant portion from the discussion. Read on below for the excerpt.


There were a surprising amount of Resident Evil games released in 2012. Capcom published Revelations in late January, Operation Raccoon City in May, and closed out the year with Resident Evil 6 in October. Don’t forget: The Mercenaries also launched in June of 2011.

The amount of titles released during the past couple of years may have been a bit too much, according to Resident Evil: Revelations producer Masachika Kawata:

“I think certainly looking at the last year or two, there probably were a few too many. I think we learned last year that putting on a lot of titles would not necessarily win over gamers. At the same time, I don’t think we should just stagger them out artificially because that’s the solution to the problem we have. We should always start by asking how do we make the games better. And if the solution to making the games better is to have a more staggered release than we’ve had recently then that’s something we’ll do. But we’ll do it for that reason and not just for flipping what we’ve done already.”

Resident Evil fans can look forward to one more entry this year, though it’s updated version of the 3DS title Revelations.
