Remember Famitsu’s Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney puzzle from last week’s issue? As it turns out, the original release date speculation based on the ad was spot on.

In some ways, Ninja Gaiden III: Razor’s Edge is like a completely new game. While the Wii U version uses the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 release as its base, Team Ninja is making a number of additions and changes to the core formula.

Razor’s Edge features tougher AI, dismemberment, an upgrade system, and more. Players can accumulate currency by pulling off combos, and can then use the cash to purchase moves, sword upgrades, and magic spells. You’ll be able to view some of the more complex combos right on the Wii U GamePad for further assistance.

According to the latest Game Informer, Team Ninja will also be including Ayane as a playable character. She’ll have her own “narrative-expanding missions”, complete with a new move set.


Thursday really will be a global affair for Wii U. A conference will be held in New York City to announce launch information for the console, and while that’s happening, a Nintendo Direct will be shown for Europe.

Australia is getting in on the fun, too. A unique presentation will be streamed at 24:00 (midnight) AEST. You can keep track of the Australian Nintendo Direct page here.

Are you ready for the onslaught of Wii U news?


Mythical Pokémon to be Available for a Limited Time Only

11th September 2012 – The release of the Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 games for Nintendo DS is quickly approaching, and Nintendo is giving fans yet another reason to be excited for their 12th October 2012 launch across the UK. Consumers who purchase either game will have the opportunity to receive the Mythical Pokémon Genesect via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for the first time ever through a free distribution for a limited time after launch. In Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2, players will return to the Unova region and embark on a new adventure set two years after the events of the Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version games.

Genesect, the newly discovered Mythical Pokémon, has been restored from a 300 million year old fossil. Modified by Team Plasma, this Pokémon has a fearsome signature move called Techno Blast. Genesect is the only known Pokémon with this move. Genesect is a Bug and Steel-Type Pokémon with the ability to adjust its power levels based on the foe it’s battling. This powerful Pokémon will be available from 12th October 2012 through to 12th November 2012.
