Sonic Boom was once known as “Sonic Synergy”
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 7 Comments
The website for Edward Moore, a UX/UI design consultant on Sonic Boom, reveals that the Wii U and 3DS games were known as “Sonic Synergy” at one point.
Moore’s site also houses images of UI diagrams and early concept artwork. Another image – shown below – also seems to depict a slightly different-looking Sonic.
As The Sonic Stadium points out, “Sonic’s arms are back to being tan in colour, spikes are also different, much more like the Sega Sonic version. Amy also has some differences too.”

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Videos | 0 comments
Atlus’ latest trailer for Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold provides a new look at the game’s Classic Mode. Watch it below.
And here’s the pertinent information regarding Classic Mode:
Unlike Story Mode, which has a fixed party and intricate storyline, Classic Mode gives players full access to character creation, as well as being able to customize characters using Grimoire Stones, which grant any character class to use another class’ skills.
One fun thing to note in the video, the background music is the “Classic” version as well, which uses the original Nintendo DS music. Like in the first Untold title, a newly added orchestral score can be selected from the options menu at any time.

– Tomahawk in particular is apparently super strong according to Takahashi
– A lot of the old jobs have gotten significant changes based on user feedback, ease of use, etc.
– Talking about the new Moon Base restoration mini game. Replaces the town building mini game. Get peeps with street pass etc.
– New mini-game. Kapu Kapu Maker. You make stuffed animals of the weird monster. “You prob have no idea what we’re talking about.”
– You unlock music in the music player by playing that as well
– If you talk to the pig, you can warp to any town you’ve been to already
– Looks like all the old towns have seen changes
– There are more weapon types in the game as well
– 4/23 The Special Bravely Second site will go up. Events, achievements, etc. Carry on data from FTS and you get the freelancer stuff.
– Basically you can have the freelancer outfit equipped regardless of what job you’re using
– There are other ways to get those, but folks with saves get it right off the bat
– From 4/24 to 4.30, there will be 6 different Maou that’ll be fightable. Two of those are brand new.

Takahashi: People watching are probably already fans, but I’m looking forward to playing along with everyone on Thursday.”
– Asano: We designed this stream with folks who weren’t sure if they wanted to buy Bravely Second or not in mind. It’s been over two years since we made Bravely Default. We’ve spent the last 2 and a half years preparing for this, and I think we’ve made something great. And as always, we’d be happy if you spread the word on twitter etc, and talked about the game. I’m sure we’ll meet again soon. Thanks!
Head past the break for details from the Q&A.
