This App Store game is definitely a Super Mario 3D Land rip-off
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Above are some screenshots of the $1 App Store game, 3D Cartoon Land: Safari.
Here’s how the game is described:
“Very simply yet very addicting,this unique game requires you to quickly jump over obstacles and collect coins.But you are not secure in this beautiful cartoon world.An angry tortoise could bite you.An easy and smooth control makes it very funny and to jump or run.”
I don’t think anything else has to be said at this point. Just look at one of the screenshots – it’s a blatant rip-off of Super Mario 3D Land.

Darksiders II can be played on the GamePad only, DLC will be sold on the eShop
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
THQ was able to confirm that Darksiders II will be fully playable on the Wii U GamePad. You’ll be able to tackle the entire experience without having to access a television.
THQ additionally confirmed that future DLC will be sold on the Wii U eShop. “The Abyssal Forge” and “The Demon Lord Belial” will both be available sometime following the console’s launch.
Potential Darksiders II Wii U buyers may be interested to know how the title takes advantage of the GamePad. The controller acts as a map as well as an inventory screen that allows for item, armor, and weapon switching on the fly. The developers are also including optional motion-sensing features, giving users the ability to make Death dodge and leap side-to-side by moving the GamePad in the desired direction.
Masuda on the decision to make Black/White 2, why it’s on the DS, fully polygonal Pokemon, MMO, more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Game Informer has conducted a very interesting interview with Pokemon Black/White 2 producer Junichi Masuda. The full discussion is made up of topics that Pokemon fans are actually interested in: why GameFreak decided to make the sequel, why it’s on the DS, the possibility of a fully polygonal Pokemon, the possibility of a MMO (doesn’t sound it’ll be happening!), changing battle cries, and Masuda’s thoughts on making the battle system more fast-paced.
Head past and break for Masuda’s comments.
