“Nintendo’s been great to work with, everyone there. Dan Adelman’s a champ and works incredibly hard to help Indies and deserves a lot of recognition, and on the European side, Christian, Oliver and Pepe were just as supportive, to name a few. The pleasant experience working with them on a personal level is the primary reason why I’ll continue to make games for Nintendo platforms.”

– Vblank’s Brian Provinciano


Gah, the more I hear about this game’s development process the more I feel like I want to pick it up just to support what this guy’s all about. It doesn’t seem like a bad game either– the problem is that it’s only on WiiWare, so eShop points cards won’t apply to it! If the game comes out on Wii U or 3DS I’d be sure to pick it up– as I think a lot of you new Wii U owners would as well!

We’ve pretty much known that Pandora’s Tower would arrive sometime in April for awhile now, but XSEED has now made it 100% official. Indeed, the Wii RPG will be available next month. XSEED hasn’t mentioned a specific date just yet, but look out for it sometime within the next few weeks.

Will Turnbow, a dedicated Zelda fan, and his wife made an absolutely amazing animated Skyward Sword cake for their daughter’s tenth birthday. The cake features Skyloft, the Sealed Grounds, the Faron Woods, as well as other elements from the Wii title.

“The Temple entrance is 6 batches of Rice Krispies and the backside of the temple is 9 cakes stacked as high as we could make it. The small tower on either side are styrofoam wrapped with fondant. My wife made and painted all of the characters out of clay except for Link (I was able to use my Figma Link).”
