September 2011 NPD: Various sales results

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Wii | 0 comments

Star Fox 64 3D – 130,000
3DS Flame Red – 79,000
Kirby Mass Attack – 66,000
Bit.Trip Complete – less than 1,000 units

Poor Bit.Trip Complete… The thing is, I don’t find its sales to be surprising. It’s always felt more like a niche series in spite of the fact that all of the games were of very high-quality.

Potions, Lakes and Link’s Trusty Whip Among Newly Revealed Elements in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword for Wii

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo has revealed another set of details about the fascinating areas, items and game play in the upcoming The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword game, which will launch exclusively for the Wii™ system on Nov. 20. Following last week’s unveiling of new information about the Faron Woods area of the game, fans can now glimpse additional details about this and other areas, plus a sneak peek at how players can maneuver Link™ through watery environments and help him wield a whip using the Wii Remote™ Plus controller. Newly revealed game elements include the following:
Lake Floria and the Parella Tribe: Later in his quest, Link must make his way to an as-yet-undiscovered section of the Faron Woods that is home to Lake Floria. The lake is inhabited by the squid-like Parella tribe, which makes its first appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Even when revisiting past areas like Faron Woods, players will make new discoveries and, occasionally, find drastic changes to the environment that require them to explore these areas in entirely different ways.
