Capcom opened a new Tokyo Game Show 2012 website a short while ago – access it here. For the time being, only the homepage and map/titles list can be accessed.

So far, the following games have been confirmed for the show:

Monster Hunter 4 (playable debut!)
Resident Evil 6
DmC Devil May Cry
Lost Planet 3
E.X. Troopers
Airu De Puzzle

This likely isn’t the final lineup. Capcom may have a couple of games to add prior to the start of TGS 2012.

Thanks to 4Him for the tip.


Remember the WiiWare title Heavy Fire: Special Operations? Interestingly, developer Teyon has ported it to the 3DS.

A new version, named Heavy Fire: Special Operations 3D, is coming to the eShop. It will be released on September 13 for $4.99.

The gameplay remains unchanged in the 3DS version. It’s still an on-rails shooter with six levels to go through. More information can be found on Nintendo’s game page.



Level-5 has opened a mini-site for its Tokyo Game Show 2012 presence. The company posted its lineup for the show and has hinted at a couple of game announcements.

Along with the games below, you’ll notice that there are two blank slots with the words “coming soon”. Putting two and two together, that has to mean that two game reveals are on the way… right?

Here’s the company’s lineup in full:

Playable/video:

Fantasy Life
Inazuma Eleven Go 2
Little Battler eXperience W
Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney
Professor Layton and the Ruins of an Advanced Civilization
