An interesting rating for Pokemon Rumble World popped up on the ESRB. This is a new, recent listing with an actual description of the game. The original rating is located here.

It doesn’t make much sense to re-rate a game that came out close to a year ago. Perhaps Nintendo has plans to bring the retail version of Pokemon Rumble World to North America much like Europe and Japan? That would make sense, since it would explain the new rating as well as why it’s accompanied by a description (downloadable games usually don’t have one whereas retail titles do).

Original (1/22): ShonenGameZ posted another scan of Dragon Ball: Project Fusion from the latest issue of V Jump. We’ve attached it above.

Bandai Namco and Ganbarion are really going all out with fusions in the RPG. It sounds like you can fuse a ton of characters, but even cities, buildings, and islands as well.

The Project X Zone 2 demo released on the European 3DS eShop a couple of days ago, with the North American version following next week. View some footage of it below.

Hyrule Warriors Legends made its way to Japan a couple of days ago. Naturally, Famitsu published its review of the game in one of its recent issues. Four editors dished out scores of “9”, “9”, “8”, and “10” for a total score of 36 out of 40.

We now have a complete translation of Famitsu’s review. To read it in full, head past the break.

Hyrule Warriors Legends won’t be out in the west until March. However, it looks like the game’s translations are essentially complete.

It appears that those who have picked up Hyrule Warriors Legends in Japan can play through the game in English. This includes story scenes with the narrator as well as subtitles and other text. Check out some English footage below.

Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden is half off on Amazon. The game originally went for $30, but can now be purchased for $14.62. Orders can be placed here.

Two new pieces of character art from Zero Time Dilemma are available. You can get a look at both above.

Thanks to Aksys Games, we also have some photos of the new watch for the game:

The Play Nintendo YouTube account has returned with another off-beat video, once again for Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon: “The Jellicent Show”. You can view it below.

In the past, handheld versions of the LEGO games have been a bit compromised. Warner Bros. and TT Games usually deliver a different experience which doesn’t really match the console versions. With LEGO Marvel’s Avengers, however, the team has managed to include “a full free-roaming open world hub city”.

Director Steve Thornton wrote in a LEGO.com blog post:

“I’m incredibly pleased to announce that for the first time ever, we have a full free-roaming open world hub city on handheld; a full 1:1 scale rendition of the console Manhattan city hub is playable on both Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita, with no breaks, cuts or loading screens. Although capturing the console scale was important to us, we knew we couldn’t sacrifice life or activity, so the handheld city is also fully populated with traffic and pedestrian systems, props and Free Play content. In fact, there are over 100 Free Play objects in the city, connected to 15 handheld exclusive ‘hub challenges’

Listening to fans, we also know that although gamers value exclusive content, they also want the console and handheld experiences to become ever closer and offer the same feel and features. On this project we’ve worked closer with the console team than ever before, to ensure that the core features that define the LEGO Marvel’s Avengers experience are fully present on handheld. Many of these are traversal mechanics for blasting, boosting and leaping your way through the open world hub, including not only the Iron Man flight system and Quicksilver super speed, but the awesome Hyper Jump and Super Climb mechanics that bigger characters like Hulk can use to charge jump through the streets and smash up the side of skyscrapers. We spent a long time tweaking and balancing these mechanics to ensure they had the right weight and responsiveness, and they feel genuinely great to use.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate hasn’t been on sale at retail for awhile, but it’s now been discounted on Amazon again. You can pick it up for $30 as opposed to $40 ($10 savings). Put in an order here if interested.
