Capcom has been notorious for its boxart screwups in recent years. There was the “Resident Evil: Revelaitons” spelling error. And don’t forget the IGN watermark on Okami Wii’s box!

But Capcom isn’t alone. Other companies mess up boxarts as well – like Namco Bandai. The publisher is just a week away from launching Naruto Powerful Shippuden, though appears to have incorrectly spelled the game’s title.

Take a look at a photo of the 3DS box:

Something tells me that Namco Bandai meant “Naruto”…

Ubisoft decided to delay the Wii U version of Rayman Legends so that it could launch the game alongside the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions. However, it won’t be sitting in a corner somewhere – the team will be using the extra time to improve the experience.

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot suggested that Legends could see an increase in the amount of bosses and hinted at further social features:

“What’s very important to consider is that, when a team has more time, they are able to continue to improve the quality of the game. When we saw we had more time, we saw all of the possibilities. Some of the possibilities are the social features that we are seeing today, but also new bosses, new possibilities that will take the game to a level that people will love.”

Rayman Legends is now scheduled to launch in September. The Wii U version would have been out today, had Ubisoft not pushed back its release.

Nintendo is publishing LEGO City: Undercover even though it isn’t being made internally. But while the Big N is tied to the game, the company mainly allowed developer TT Fusion to do its own thing without interfering.

Know that Nintendo wasn’t out of the picture completely. TT Fusion shared Undercover’s script and other elements, and Nintendo actually suggested that the team include references and cameos.

According to executive proudcer Loz Doyle:

“We were sharing information with them, the script and everything went to them to look at, and they were always keen to have a look at the game and let us know what they thought. They pretty much left us to it to develop the game, and only flagged things up if they thought there was a major problem, but on the whole they acknowledged the fact that we know how to make a LEGO game better than they do. So they were quite happy for us to make it. Nintendo cameo ideas came from them, as they suggested getting some of those references in there; which we obviously lapped up. Overall they were not that intrusive, but hands on in terms of getting the game to its finished state.”
