More comments from Eiji Aonuma have come in through Miiverse pertaining to Zelda: A Link to the Past’s sequel on 3DS. He talked essentially about the vision behind the game and and how development is going without giving anything mind-blowing away:

“The world of Hyrule has been reborn in a highly realistic stereoscopic vision, which will feature a new story and new puzzles to be solved. The development for the successor of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is going smoothly, so, please look forward to it!”

“The day we’ll be seeing the successor is still further ahead, but for those of you who wish to contribute or show your support, please comment on the Wii U The Legend of Zelda series community [on Miiverse].”

– Eiji Aonuma, The Legend of Zelda series producer


Aonuma suggested that the game has been in the works since 2011 in a recent Japanese Nintendo Direct, which would indicate a 2 year development cycle for the game. The most recent handheld Zelda title– The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks— came out on DS in 2009.

“Right now I’m actually just working on Mass Effect 4 (I wouldn’t call it 4, I’d just call it the next Mass Effect). It’s coming out of Montreal.”

– Mass Effect series writer Mac Walters


Walters also shared that he believed most players did not have a problem with the ending to Mass Effect 3, but rather a smaller group of very loud individuals took to the internet and caused something of a ruckus about it. I think some folks might disagree with that, but who knows… maybe those folks are part of the minority he’s talking about!?

Ghostlight has now published a more formal blog post regarding the upcoming patch for Devil Survivor Overclocked in Europe.

As was mentioned through the company’s Twitter account yesterday, the fix is almost ready for prime time. It already passed through testing, and it will soon be submitted to Nintendo. Once approved, Ghostlight hopes that the update will be available a couple of weeks after.

I’m relieved to report that the Devil Survivor Overclocked patch has now passed through testing here and a submission to Nintendo is imminent. The key issues regarding Devil Summoning and the Auction House have been fixed and Atlus have also improved the naming convention for characters and demons. Once Nintendo have approved the patch, we are hopeful that it will be available to download from the eShop in the next few weeks.

At this point, a huge thank you should go out to Atlus for their team’s dedication and continued hard work in resolving the reported issues in the game. Also, on behalf of Ghostlight I would once again like to apologise for the inconvenience these bugs have caused and thank you all for your patience while we work towards bringing the patch to the eShop.
