May 2012 NPD: Nintendo’s terse response
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
Nintendo has provided a short statement about the US performance of its systems for the month of May.
Even though the company was nebulous with its sales data, we do have one significant stat. Over 285,000 units of portable/console hardware were sold last month. That piece of information should include all of Nintendo’s systems – the Wii, 3DS, and DS.
Nintendo’s entire response is as follows:
“In May, Nintendo sold more than 285,000 units of portable and console hardware. At the E3 Expo in Los Angeles last week, Nintendo revealed a massive slate of first- and third-party games on the way for Nintendo 3DS and the upcoming Wii U console. Further details about Nintendo’s E3 announcements can be found here: http://e3.nintendo.com. We’re looking forward to a strong second half of 2012.”
Pokemon Conquest director would like to make a sequel
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
Hisashi Koinuma, the director behind Pokemon Conquest, would like to make a sequel. Nothing has been discussed just yet, but perhaps we’ll see a new game someday as a result of Koinuma’s interest.
Koinuma was actually asked if a sequel could happen on the 3DS. However, the portable wasn’t addressed specifically in his response.
Here’s Koinuma’s exact words about a Pokemon Conquest sequel:
“We really enjoyed making this title, having this collaboration. If there’s an opportunity we would like to do a sequel, but unfortunately there haven’t been any talks about that yet.”

Players Battle to Unite the Region of Ransei in a New Game Featuring Warlords, Warriors, Characters Inspired by Japanese History and Nearly 200 Pokémon
REDMOND, Wash., June 14, 2012 – New and experienced fans of the Pokémon video game series are invited to embark on an entirely new role-playing adventure. Pokémon Conquest launches for the Nintendo DS family of hand-held systems on June 18. The game is also playable on Nintendo 3DS in 2D mode, and challenges players to enter into battles across a variety of environments in the mythical region of Ransei. For the first time in the Pokémon franchise, players take on the role of Warlords who are linked with Pokémon, and must recruit allies to unite the kingdoms of Ransei and unleash the Legendary Pokémon. Developed by TECMO KOEI GAMES Co., Ltd., the game features nearly 200 Pokémon to battle and recruit, including many from the fan-favorite Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version games.
In Pokémon Conquest, the region of Ransei is divided into 17 distinct kingdoms – one for each of the 17 types of Pokémon. Players will be able to choose from 36 playable Warlords, each with its own unique storyline, and engage in a series of turn-based battles in which they can control Pokémon and Warriors. Battles can grow to include as many as 12 Pokémon in a six-on-six skirmish. Many battlefield victories will let players recruit more Warlords and Warriors and gain access to additional allies. Along the way, they will also encounter fascinating Warlords and Warriors inspired by the Japanese feudal era.
