SEGA has opened an official Japanese website for Sonic Lost World. You can find it here.
Because it’s a teaser site, it doesn’t contain much at present. Fans can, however, watch Sonic Lost World’s debut trailer.

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures appears to be getting a budget release, which is probably for the best. Retailers such as Amazon
and Best Buy are listing a $39.99 price point for all versions of the game – including the 3DS edition.
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures should be out this fall. When Namco Bandai shares a more specific date, we’ll be sure to let you know.
Intelligent Systems keeping quiet on mainline HD Fire Emblem and new Advance Wars, talks series’ differences
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 1 Comment
There hasn’t been a mainline Fire Emblem game on a Nintendo console since Radiant Dawn for Wii. Keeping the franchise’s console origins in mind, could we see a new entry for Wii U?
Intelligent Systems wouldn’t say. The studio would only tell ONM:
“I’m glad you seem to be interested in an HD Fire Emblem, but unfortunately at the current time I can’t make any comments about any future games. Thank you for your understanding.”
Intelligent Systems’ Kouhei Maeda was similarly quiet when asked about a new Advance Wars:
“Whether or not we have plans to bring out a new entry in the Advance Wars series is a secret.”
Rumor: All three of Nintendo’s exclusive Sonic games due out this year
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Podcast Stories, Rumors, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo has a deal in place with SEGA for three Sonic titles. Two have been revealed thus far: Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. These games, along with a third unannounced project, are allegedly launching this year.
In a press release covering the recent Sonic Lost World news, Nintendo of Germany stated:
“Today, they (Sega) revealed further details of the second of three titles, which the two companies will release exclusively on Wii U and 3DS. All three games will be released this year.”
I’m having a difficult time believing this. Mario & Sonic seems like a game suited for 2014, and we have yet to see the third Sonic game. Stranger things have happened, though!

Kamiya tweet: Bayonetta 2 will be on E3 2013 Nintendo Direct
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Hideki Kamiya has kind of, sort of confirmed what was widely expected. On Twitter, Kamiya said that Bayonetta 2 will be shown during Nintendo’s E3 2013 Nintendo Direct.
Next week…in Ninty Direct… RT @cptwigglefuffle: Is Bayonetta 2 going to be in the new Nintendo Direct?
— ???? Hideki Kamiya (@PG_kamiya) June 1, 2013
Kamiya tends to troll the folks he talks to on Twitter. You’ll usually see him writing things like “Next week…in game magazines…” when fans ask him when Bayonetta 2 will be shown – and he often successfully tricks people! In any case, even if Kamiya was somehow trolling this time around, pretty much everyone is counting on Bayonetta 2 being shown on the upcoming Nintendo Direct in some form.
