Iwata likes the idea of automatically pushing demos to 3DS and Wii U owners
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
The only type of real demos we’ve seen on a Nintendo service thus far have come through the Wii Shop Channel. Unfortunately, the process of actually downloading content can be tedious and it doesn’t help that demos are automatically removed after a few weeks. On the bright side, it sounds like Satoru Iwata might be open to changing Nintendo’s demo methods in the future.
“…Additionally, when Nintendo would like to ask users to try a specific new game, we should deliver it to their Nintendo 3DS, and possibly Wii U, with their prior consent and recommend that they just try it and, if they like it, they can pay for it. In this way, we need to introduce users to unknown products. Consumers are likely to be convinced to pay about 5,000 yen for a well-established franchise product, but not all the people are willing to pay a certain amount of money for an innovative but unknown product. Now is the time to prepare for these situations. We would like to respond to some of the concerns surrounding our business in this manner.”
I could see this happening very easily on the 3DS and I imagine it could be easy to implement on Wii U. Demos for both retail and downloadable games are heading to the eShop later this year, but it would be great if there was an option to automatically receive demos. It’d probably be demos that Nintendo selects, but it could be an great feature.

Kawata: 3D effect makes Resident Evil more scary
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
This information comes from Resident Evil: Revelations producer Masachika Kawata…
“The 3D effects really do help bring out the sense of presence and the sense of being in an enclosed space, not knowing where an enemy is going to jump out. It makes it all the more scary. We do believe 3D adds quite a bit to the game.”
The 3D effect could make things more realistic and perhaps more scary overall. I personally believe that music/sound are one of the most important elements to impact the environment of a game. What makes Resident Evil games scary for you guys?
Rumor: Kid Icarus: Uprising due out Q1 2012 in Europe
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 0 comments
According to information gathered from Nintendo, Kid Icarus: Uprising isn’t due out in Europe this year. The title is now on track for a Q1 2012 release in the territory. No reason was provided for the game’s delay.
I’m wondering if the delay will affect North America/Japan as well or if it’s specific for Europe. Last we heard, Uprising is launching in North America later this year.
