Terra Incognita managed to hit its Kickstarter stretch goal just a few hours before the campaign ended. A total of £3,630 was raised, a huge increase over the desired £500 amount and just a bit more than the £3,500 stretch goal total. Due to the success on Kickstarter, fans can expect Terra Incognita to arrive on Wii U.

Azran Legacies sells more than Miracle Mask, but second-lowest Professor Layton debut in Japan
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News | 0 comments
Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies launched in Japan a little more than a week ago. How’d it do? Well, while sales did see an improvement over Miracle Mask, the game’s debut is the second-worst in the series.
A look at Professor Layton’s series sales at a glance:
(2007) Professor Layton and the Curious Village – 136,736
(2007) Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box – 293,897
(2008) Professor Layton and the Unwound Future – 347,360
(2009) Professor Layton and the Last Specter – 306,473
(2011) Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask – 119,591
(2013) Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies – 130,686
Azran Legacies is supposedly the last main Professor Layton game. One has to wonder what Level-5 has in store for the IP going forward.
Rumor: New Crash Bandicoot in the works, heading to Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Podcast Stories, Rumors, Wii U | 0 comments
Let’s get this out of the way: take the rumor below with a huge grain of salt. Now that that’s out of the way, we can proceed!
Rumor has it that a countdown for a new Crash Bandicoot game launched preemptively before being pulled. Someone took a screenshot that is oddly low-quality and off-screen (already raising a red flag), which shows that the project is coming to “PlayStation”, Xbox 360, and Wii U.
Vicarious Visions is supposedly behind the new Crash Bandicoot. In January, a possible redesign for the character was spotted in an official photo from the studio, though there hasn’t been any official news concerning the IP.
Could there actually be a new Crash Bandicoot on the way? Or is this nothing more than a disappointing rumor?
