Siliconera has shared another round of details for Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories. That includes a new comments from Natsume’s Graham Markay, who said that this title is intended to address criticisms that fans had with The Lost Valley.

Here’s a rundown of what Siliconera shares in its article:

“We heard what our fans had to say. We got compliments as well as criticisms. One of the main issues was probably a town. This returns to the fundamentals. Is there upgrades? Yes. Is there giving gifts? Yes. Are there a variety of bachelors and bachelorettes? Yes. This isn’t a sequel to The Lost Valley.” – Graham Markay, Vice President of Operations at Natsume

– Players arrive on a rustic farm that used to be in a striving town
– As you sow crops and care for cows, the farm thrives and the townsfolk begin to remember what their town is like
– Can visit residents in their homes
– Court five bachelors or bachelorettes
– Not a sequel to Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley
– This game has some familiar characters
– The Lost Valley’s clocksmith Andrea is in the game
– Luke from The Lost Valley is also a datable character
– A witch bachelorette and wizard bachelor were also added due to fan requests

Alongside some new videos, Capcom also revealed some details about the DLC that The Great Ace Attorney is getting.

The DLC will come in weekly episodes called “issues” of “Randst Magazine”, priced at 300 yen each. If you know your Holmes lore, you’ll know that this is a reference to Strand Magazine, a magazine in which Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories were originally published before they were released as books and anthologies.

Each “issue” of Randst Magazine will feature some short episodic content along with some making-of / behind the scenes content like artwork and music. If you buy the game before July 19th, you’ll get the first issue for free.

The Great Ace Attorney will be released in Japan on July 9th. A Western release date has not yet been announced.

Capcom has gone live with a launch trailer for The Great Ace Attorney. There are also a couple of more videos with gameplay to be seen. We’ve posted them all below.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! With Fire Emblem If having been released in Japan, Dragon Quest VIII has now taken the top spot.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 11 and June 17.

Capcom has uploaded a whole bunch of commercials for The Great Ace Attorney. You’ll find them all below, along with a “making of” video.

The latest issue of MCV features a few comments from Nintendo UK head of consumer marketing James Honeywell. Honeywell commented on how the company is focusing its efforts on Super Mario Maker, shared some words about toys-to-life and its home on Wii U, and the 3DS’ “bright future.”

Here’s a roundup of Honeywell’s different remarks:

“We are focusing a lot of our efforts on Super Mario Maker. It seems fitting that for Mario’s 30th anniversary we have a new Mario title that breaks the rules and offers infinite possibilities. Beyond this launch on September 11th, we’ll also be promoting the other new titles but also games like Splatoon and Mario Kart 8, which both continue to perform well.”

“Activision really invented the toys-to-life category so it’s really exciting that Donkey Kong and Bowser can take on their new starring roles. We hope that by working together on this we can offer another unique game experience to Wii U and bring a new audience to Amiibo. We are also fortunate that Wii U is home to Disney’s Infinity 3.0 and LEGO Dimensions, too. It’s set to be a really exciting Christmas for us all.

“Nintendo 3DS continues to be really important to us and hopefully this came across with all the great announements. With the recent launch of New Nintendo 3DS, we’ve seen sales overtake last year, and with great games like Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, The Legend of Zelda: Tri-Force Heroes and Chibi-Robo! all coming in time for Christmas, it’s going to continue to be strong. We also have a lot of great new titles coming in 2016, so Nintendo 3DS has a bright future.”
