Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Volvidon screenshots and details
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Capcom is continuing to highlight creatures from Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. The latest, Volvidon, is a fanged beast in the game.
Volvidon screenshots and details are posted below, straight from Capcom-Unity.
Before we talk about the Volvidon, let’s first talk about its habitat: the Volcano. In the world of Monster Hunter, extreme heat will cause your health to deplete slowly until you pass out, presumably due to dehydration – much like real life. To remedy that, there are Cool Drinks.
When you see the Volvidon, make sure you’re ready to rock, because this beast is certainly ready to roll – in quite the literal sense, actually! With its armadillo-like shell and physique, rolling into a ball shape is no trouble for Volvidon; and with that, it can quickly roll forward, backward and even sideways, depending on where you and your companions are.

Strong Unchained Blades sales could lead to sequel localization
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Podcast Stories | 0 comments
Unchained Blades producer Hiroyuki Abe would naturally like to see the game’s sequel in English. But like most localizations, it all comes down to fan interest and sales.
Abe hinted that “the possibility of Exxiv coming over grows quite a bit” if the original game sells well:
“The original game and concept for Unchained Blades was well received. We were eager to create a sequel based on the same concept that people seemed to enjoy. In terms of Exxiv, coming over is something we will still have to evaluate. If American gamers buy a lot of Unchained Blades from Xseed, the possibility of Exxiv coming over grows quite a bit!”
There are a couple of ways to purchase Unchained Blades. You can download the 3DS eShop version which launched today, or buy it from the PlayStation Network.

Fan-made browser game is the closest thing to Mega Man Legends 3

Mega Man Legends 3 is dead. Capcom cancelled the project and has no intentions to revive the title.
What’s a fan to do in this case? Well, while it’s far from what the final game would have been like, series followers can try a small fan-made browser offering. You’ll drive around as main character Barrett and pick up some Servbots along the way.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star team cut mini-games due to a lack of time

Paper Mario: Sticker Star could have offered a series of mini-games in Bowser’s Castle. However, the team didn’t have enough time to implement the content.
Producer Kensuke Tanabe told ONM:
“In Bowser’s Castle, we were planning on having the player complete a number of different mini-games as they went along, but unfortunately we had to cut this because we didn’t have time. I’m sure these mini-games would have been very silly and fun, so that was a bit of a shame.”
Co-director Naohiko Aoyama added that the mini-games would have required “a lot of effort into making events to really show off their uniqueness.”
“If we had, then we would certainly have had to put a lot of effort into making events to really show off their uniqueness.”

Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham has opened up on 3DS piracy concerns amid reports that hackers are starting to have their way with the portable.
As many people know, piracy became an issue on the DS. Dementium: The Ward sold 100,000 copies around the world, but Watsham feels that piracy may have affected the sequel’s performance. Only 50,000 units of Dementium II were sold.
With the 3DS, Watsham noted that Renegade Kid “will have no choice but to stop supporting the platform with new games” if similar issues occur.
Watsham said:
