In North America, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures is due out on consoles on October 29. The 3DS game will follow on November 5.

Along with today’s screenshot, Sakurai passed along the following message on Miiverse:

The shield that can deflect things with a little “clunk!” is still around. There’s a slight reaction to the impact this time, so brace yourself.


Nintendo producer Eiji Aonuma commented on a number of wide-ranging topics while speaking with GamesTM this month.

The visual style of Zelda games was one prominent item tackled by Aonuma. He spoke about his personal importance of creating unique-looking games:

When something unexpected happens, the first reaction people have is to be wary.

…I try to make games I work on unique. Not only in terms of gameplay, but also in terms of graphical style. I want the game to be unlike anything I’ve seen anywhere else. Changes to the graphics also help to change preconceived ideas and have a big impact on the gameplay. Because the graphical style can lead to uniqueness like that, I think it really can’t be ignored.


Get the party started as Nintendo announce 3 new Wii U hardware bundles

launching in time for the festive season

10th October 2013 – The lead up to Christmas is set to be an exciting time for fans looking for value and variety in their gaming, with the announcement of three new Wii U hardware bundle releases coming this November. Perfect for festive celebrations, the new bundles incorporate games to really get the party started such as Wii Party U and Just Dance 2014, as well as a bundle combining both New Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Luigi U in a special one game disc offering.


For a few months now, retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop have listed pricing for Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director’s Cut at $49.99 on Wii U and $29.99 on the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360. As it turns out, this is final.

Square Enix had been previously hesitant to officially reveal the game’s cost, but nothing has changed since retailers put up their original listings. We’ve confirmed with the publisher that the Wii U version will indeed set you back $50, but only $30 on other consoles.

Why the difference in pricing? Other than the fact that Deus Ex: Human Revolution has landed on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 previously, I can’t really think of anything. The experience will be more or less the same across all platforms.



So this is pretty interesting. The Wii U demo of Sonic Lost World, out now in Japan, can be played in English – check out the video above.
