5th Cell believe 3DS is cooler than Kinect and Move, R&D phase for 3DS title
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii | 3 Comments
First, 5th Cell’s Jeremiah Slaczka was asked if Kinect or Move provide him with any inspiration…
“Yeah… a little. I don’t know. The 3DS is cooler in our opinion.”
Slaczka then elaborated on his thoughts regarding Move/its relation to Wii…
“Move is okay. It’s Wii plus. It’s good for what it is. Ultimately it’s all about the system. If the idea makes sense, then we can do it and we will. But it’s all about the idea.”
Last but not least, Slaczka talked about 5th Cell’s interest in the 3DS, and that the company is in the R&D phase of making a 3DS title…
“[5th Cell is] in the R&D phase [to make a 3DS game]. We have people playing around with it. The 3D camera is probably the most interesting thing that’s the least talked about.”

001, 002, and 003… Those listings don’t really give us any clues as to what the games could be. Are those even the real names? Hopefully we’ll receive some answers soon!

FLUX is the final BIT.TRIP title
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Can you believe that five BIT.TRIP titles have already been released? I feel like BEAT wasn’t released that long ago, even though it launched in March of last year. Unfortunately, CommanderVideo’s adventures are almost over. There’s just one BIT.TRIP game left – and it seems like it will be titled “Flux.” The USK has shared the game’s title a bit early, though we should hear some information about the project soon.
SEGA wipes those Sonic 4 leaderboards
Posted on 13 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
In a move that isn’t all too surprising, SEGA has opted to wipe the leaderboards of Sonic 4 due to rampant cheating in the game. Cheaters would hack the game to show impossible run-times in levels that couldn’t be beat, which completely ruins the fun of the game for everyone else trying to play.
Cheating seems to be making a comeback in the last few years, with Wii games getting hit especially hard due to their easy-to-hack online structure. Hopefully we’ll see some decency in the gaming community soon, but until then we just have to deal with it it seems.

Rumor: Famitsu review scores
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors, Wii | 4 Comments
This week’s issue of Famitsu is a bit confusing. The magazine will be released on Wednesday this week instead of Thursday, as Monster Hunter Portable 3rd is releasing on the same day. Leaks generally begin on Wednesday night, but this time around, news has apparently arrived two days early. I haven’t been able to locate a single scan from the latest issue, but I still have a feeling that the scores below are legitimate. I’ve seen a ton of information that has been transcribed from the magazine (including complete review summaries), which makes me believe that we can trust the information. Still, just to be safe, we’ll mark this as a rumor for now.
Ni no Kuni (DS) – 10/9/9/10
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood (PS3/360) – 10/9/9/9
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit (PS3/360) – 9/9/9/8
Shiren the Wanderer 5 (DS) – 9/9/9/8
Donkey Kong Country Returns (Wii) – 8/8/8/8
TV Superstars (PS3) – 8/8/8/7
Kinect Animals (360) – 7/8/6/6
Ape Escape Fury! Fury! (PS3) – 7/7/7/6
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit (Wii) – 7/7/7/6
Pastel Chime Continue (PSP) – 6/7/7/7
Thanks to Thomas N for the tip!
