Vblank Entertainment is very pleased with the performance of Retro City Rampage on 3DS. As confirmed by the game’s official Twitter account, this version of the game is now “the best-selling-at-full-price port.” That’s despite the fact that other platforms had a 15-month head start.
The full Twitter message states:
The other platforms had a 15 month head start, but the 3DS version of Retro City Rampage became the best-selling-at-full-price port.

Report shows gamers only purchase 20% of their games at full price now. Luckily, 3DS's still healthy w/most copies of RCR sold @ full price.

Bravely team considering whether to make a sequel or new title, thinking about Bravely Second for the west
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
The next “Bravely” game could head in one of two directions. Speaking with Japanese website Gamer, producer Tomoya Asano stated that the team is considering two options. The next Bravely game could be a another sequel, but it’s also possible that we’ll see a completely new title instead.
Asano and assistant producer Shinji Takahashi said:
“Hmm… yes, we’re currently thinking about whether a sequel would be more appropriate or if a completely new title would be more appropriate. This is currently a hot topic among [the development team].” – Asano
“We’re thinking about all kinds of things, like what kind of things are requested, and getting feedback from fans.” – Takahashi
Asano shared some other interesting information as well. When asked if Bravely Second will see something like Bravely Default: For the Sequel (re-release with fixes and additions), he noted that there are no plans. The team is only thinking about the western version of the game.
Also, there are currently no plans for additional scenarios through DLC. The only updates for Bravely Second will come in the form of standard patches.

Rumors about the next Skylanders have been picking up steam as of late. There’s been talk about the game featuring vehicles, and earlier today, an unconfirmed name emerged: Skylanders Superchargers.
Skylanders Superchargers is looking more and more like the final title. Reader Mucrush passed along the image above, which is a snapshot from Danish retailer Fætter BR’s database. It’s listed for a number of platforms including Wii U, 3DS, and Wii. No release date is attached to the listings.
Activision hasn’t officially announced the next Skylanders, but I’m sure we’ll be hearing something soon. Chances are that it will be called Skylanders Superchargers!
