“We’re very thankful that this title has been received so well, and as we see that there is demand from both Japanese and American fans, we would definitely like to consider the possibility of a sequel. Since it is not possible to get right into development at this moment, please give us a little more time…Since The World Ends With You was specifically created for the DS, it would probably take on a very different form if it entered the console scene. Even though the Wii and DS seem similar, the stylus and Wii-remote are completely different, so naturally some alterations would become necessary to adjust the game for the Wii. Of course, the dual-screen element would have to be interpreted differently as well, but the most important thing would be to retain the essence of what makes The World Ends With You YOU what it is. The exhilarating high-speed action is a vital part of the game, so we would probably be careful to preserve that aspect when adjusting it for a new console.”

– Technology is for Hoshizora Navi (Starry Sky Navigator)
– Not a game – software that can help users to appreciate the night sky
– Star charts cover over 9,300 stars, planets, suns, moons from 1900 – 2099
– Can analyze the past/present but software seems to be designed with present in mind
– Hoshizora Navi uses direction sensing tech. to determine orientation – adjusts chart on screen

“Nintendo do not set prices. It is up to retailers at what price they sell any item for. However, our trade price for these games will be below our usual trade price for Wii games and our present estimate of the likely retail price is in the region of GBP 29.99.” – Nintendo statement

I’m pretty much in agreement with those who say the remakes are overpriced. If the titles were just $10 less, I think buying the Play on Wii products would be a great buy.

Black Ace and Red Joker Double the Possibilities
Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that Mega Man Star Force™ 3 (MMSF3) for Nintendo DS™ will be coming to North America in early summer 2009. MMSF3 will come in two different versions, Black Ace and Red Joker, allowing two friends to share unique items and powers utilizing the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection, enhancing their individual characters.

As in the previous games, MMSF3 is a unique blend of action and role-playing game (RPG), combining the high intensity combat that is the hallmark of Mega Man® games with Star Force’s strategic battle system. By defeating enemies and boss characters, players earn “battle cards” that enhance and evolve Mega Man’s abilities and attacks.

Hamburg/Germany, January 21st, 2009 – Crazy Circus brings a colourful and charmingly whacky circus to Nintendo DS™. Hamburg/Germany based publisher dtp entertainment will publish the arcade game worldwide in Q2 2009.

In 14 action-driven mini games, the player performs extraordinary circus acts. Oleg, the motorbike-riding bear, jumps over dozens of cars, a parrot swings on the trapeze, and clowns throw cakes at each other across the circus ring.

The player inherits the family’s once famous circus because his father is sick and no longer able to run the business. Now it is up to the young director to lead the troupe and restore the circus to its former glory. He keeps improving the show and quickly, the circus regains its excellent reputation. New performers push into the ring, the public clapping frantically to ever new sensations. The stunning performances attract the crowds in a way that finally, the circus arrives in the world’s most glamorous cities.
