Why so grumpy, mister?

Battlefield 3 was shown off during Nintendo’s E3 2011 press conference, but we haven’t seen much of the game since. Perhaps now we know why…

“We definitely see potential in the Wii U, but I wish I had the breakthrough idea for how to exploit the new controller. We’re definitely looking into what kind of new stuff we can do with Wii U. I don’t have that idea yet.” – EA’s Patrick Liu

Well, the Wii U isn’t out for a while, so he probably has some time to think about this before needing to implement it! Still, I’m hoping it doesn’t become a trend in the first few months of the Wii U’s life to just re-release games from the year prior on the console…

“Nintendo has surprised us so many times before. I was one of the sceptics when the Wii came out and it proved us wrong. I think they’re going to prove a lot of sceptics wrong again.” – EA’s Patrick Liu

No, I’m not counting that single screenshot Square Enix released after the Dragon Quest conference. These are the first true images of the game!

There’s been an absolutely ridiculous rumor floating around recently that a leaked document has revealed the name of the new Smash Bros. titles for Wii U and 3DS. I’ve refused to post that on this site, because, well, I think it’s ridiculous. People need to start filtering out what they find on the Internet…

But I digress! Perhaps responding to the “leaked” document, Masahiro Sakurai commented officially on the next round of Smash Bros. games. On his Twitter account, Sakurai said, “I’m currently concentrating on one title, Kid Icarus. Until this come to an end, Smash Bros. will not progress. Of course, characters have not been decided at all.”

This echoes what Satoru Iwata said at this year’s E3. Sakurai and his team are completely focusing on Uprising at the moment. And as we all know, the title was delayed to Q1 for all regions last week. That means development on Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS probably hasn’t even started.

A plethora of new Wii U photos have been released. Well, technically they aren’t new as the original images date back to June, but I don’t believe we’ve seen them before. Although all of the photos can be found in the gallery above, you can also find ultra high-res pictures here.

Chunsoft president Kouichi Nakamura has weighed in on Dragon Quest X. Nakamura worked on the first Dragon Quest game back in 1986, but he did a lot more than you may think. Nakamura was actually one of the primary contributors on that title.

When asked about Dragon Quest X, Nakamura said:

“Well, this is just my opinion, and I’m only speaking for myself. I see a lot of people are upset that Dragon Quest X will be an MMO. But to me, much of what made Dragon Quest successful in the first place was that it took hardcore, difficult RPGs like Ultima and Wizardry and made them accessible to the masses so that everyone could play and enjoy them. These days, MMOs represent that kind of demanding, hardcore game. So, it only seems natural to me that Dragon Quest would attempt to make that genre something everyone can enjoy as well.”

Most of the screenshots above are new, but we’ve also included a few images that previously contained a watermark from Famitsu.
