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!

Onitore’s official website has revealed an interesting piece of news about the game. It seems as though players can submit data collected in the experience for use in scientific research.

Here’s how it works: after experiencing “continuous training”, an option will be unlocked to send data to the Tohoku University Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer. You have to actually opt in to make this happen, it’s definitely not mandatory, and personal information is not included in the data.

Players can also exchange content with each other via StreetPass. Performance data will be received and registered as “Demon Training Friends”. Leaderboards are included so that users can compare their stats with family and these new friends.

WayForward has had a lot on its plate lately. The studio has been working on Silent Hill: Book of Memories, Double Dragon Neon, Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why’d you steal our garbage?!, and Mighty Switch Force HD. Time to add another game to that list!

Announced today, GameMill Entertainment will publish WayForward’s Hotel Transylvania title – based on the upcoming movie – for the 3DS and DS.

The game adaptation offers lots of locations, puzzles, and boss battles. An official announcement states that it “creates an imaginative and fun way to interact with the movie characters.”

Seeing as how the Hotel Transylvania movie will be ready for September 28, the game will likely be on store shelves around that time.

For the official announcement, head past the break.

Teyon’s downloadable title Crazy Chicken Pirates launches on August 23.  Two versions of the game are planned – one for the eShop and one for DSiWare.

According to Nintendo’s website, Crazy Chicken Pirates “is a point & shoot action game where you take aim at birds as they scurry through the island and plunge bravely into the waves for a desperate counterattack. You only have 90 seconds to complete your raid by slaying pirates and collecting all hidden treasures.”

It features hand-drawn graphics, hidden coins, jewels and skulls, and a high score list.

As far as I can tell, Crazy Chicken Pirates and its 3D counterpart will play the same. The only difference is the 3D visuals found in the eShop release.
