Capcom has a new community specialist. Yuri Araujo appears to have taken over for Seth Killian, who left his post for Sony Santa Monica a month ago.

Araujo’s presence at Capcom could be an important move for western Monster Hunter fans. Araujo says that he’s “a serious Monster Hunter fan from Brazil”.

Better yet, Araujo left a tease on Capcom-Unity that news relating to the series is coming “veeeeery soon”.

He wrote:

“I actually joined as a user specifically to inquire (read: complain) about the situation regarding Monster Hunter 2 (dos) Western release back in 2005/06 – so I know exactly how it feels to be lacking a new MH game for a while… patience is a virtue, right? Eventually it pays off somehow… we’ll have something veeeeery soon.”

If you’re interested in the upcoming launch of New Super Mario Bros. 2, you may want to check out the latest Iwata Asks. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, director Yusuke Amano, art director Masaaki Ishikawa, and Takashi Tezuka take seven pages to discuss the 3DS title, Mario overall, and more.

It’s a bit tough to summarize seven pages of content, so we don’t have comprehensive summary like we usually do. However, a brief roundup of information has been posted below.

The full interview can be read at this link.


We’re posting about Toki Tori again. Why? Because the series is awesome, and we’re excited for the 3DS Virtual Console release of the Game Boy color title.

Two Tribes’ latest update is that the VC game is one step closer to launch.

The studio posted on Twitter earlier today:

“Closing in on the Toki Tori Game Boy Color 3DS Virtual Console release! We had to transfer the original 2001 ESRB rating for some reason.”

Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled quite a long ago, but the series will be represented on the 3DS… sort of.

As is revealed in this week’s issue of Famitsu, Tron Bonne and Servbot will join the roster for Project X Zone – Capcom, Namco Bandai, and SEGA’s crossover project for Nintendo’s handheld. Both characters are well-known for their appearances in the Mega Man Legends series.

Famitsu has other Project X Zone character confirmations as well. Bahn from Fighting Vipers along with Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu from Namco x Capcom will be playable.


Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment’s Gamescom 2012 lineup is as follows:

Batman: Arkham City – Armored Edition
Injustice: Gods Among Us
LEGO Lord of the Rings
Lord of the Rings Online
Guardians of Middle-earth

Along with the games listed above, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is planning announcements for two new games. One title is a huge release.

Looking through the transcription of last week’s Famitsu, I noticed that a couple of New Super Mario Bros. 2 tidbits were summarized from the magazine.

One point concerns Luigi. Whereas Mario becomes golden after touching a Gold Flower, Luigi becomes Silver Luigi. This is something you may have picked up on through previous updates.

Famitsu additionally covered a particular stage type. These levels have Mario initially being shot out of a large cannon. He’ll run to the right, making movement automatic. Players will need to use precise jumps to get Mario through the stage.


This is a little bit odd since two of these games have already been discounted on the eShop (Mario’s Picross was just on sale a few days ago actually…). I guess any sale is a good sale, though!
