Capcom working on new downloadable title, pleased with Dark Void Zero sales
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
“We have something we’re in the process of lighting up right now that I can’t talk about but I’m super excited about. I don’t want to be too nebulous here, but fans of a certain franchise will be very happy.”
“And [Dark Void Zero is] selling, just for the record, very, very well. We’re actually really pleased. In some ways, it’s actually exceeding my expectations as to how it did, so we’ll actually be looking at some other opportunities. I’m not saying necessarily 8-bit focused, not even necessarily DSiWare-focused, but there’s some gained from learning that we take from Dark Void Zero and from Other Ocean in particular that turned out great.”
Mr. Svensson would not say anything about the mysterious downloadable title. The game may (or may not) be for WiiWare/DSiWare, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

SouthPeak’s “Crime Scene” for Nintendo DS Now Available for Investigators on the Go
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
MIDLOTHIAN, VA – February 18, 2010 – SouthPeak Interactive Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: SOPK), in collaboration with Nobilis Games, today announced the arrival of Crime Scene, a gritty crime-drama, for Nintendo DS™. In Crime Scene, players assume the role of Detective Simmons, a young, talented forensics investigator responsible for solving the city’s recent outbreak of gruesome crimes.
In order to get to the bottom of each case, players must take full advantage of an impressive array of high-tech tools to scour every inch of the environments in the game for clues. The tiniest pieces of evidence have the potential to dramatically alter the course of an ongoing investigation.
Last Window probably being localized
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 1 Comment
Nintendo has yet to announce Last Window for North America or Europe, but it seems likely that the game is being localized. There is a catch, though. So far, while a trademark for the game was found for Europe, it has not been registered in the U.S. database. Of course, it’s still more than possible that Nintendo of America will bring the game over. I am a little bit concerned though since the company failed to localize titles such as Disaster: Day of Crisis and Another Code: R.
