SEGA has opened an official Japanese website for Sonic Lost World. You can find it here.

Because it’s a teaser site, it doesn’t contain much at present. Fans can, however, watch Sonic Lost World’s debut trailer.

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures appears to be getting a budget release, which is probably for the best. Retailers such as Amazon and Best Buy are listing a $39.99 price point for all versions of the game – including the 3DS edition.

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures should be out this fall. When Namco Bandai shares a more specific date, we’ll be sure to let you know.

There hasn’t been a mainline Fire Emblem game on a Nintendo console since Radiant Dawn for Wii. Keeping the franchise’s console origins in mind, could we see a new entry for Wii U?

Intelligent Systems wouldn’t say. The studio would only tell ONM:

“I’m glad you seem to be interested in an HD Fire Emblem, but unfortunately at the current time I can’t make any comments about any future games. Thank you for your understanding.”

Intelligent Systems’ Kouhei Maeda was similarly quiet when asked about a new Advance Wars:

“Whether or not we have plans to bring out a new entry in the Advance Wars series is a secret.”

Nintendo has a deal in place with SEGA for three Sonic titles. Two have been revealed thus far: Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. These games, along with a third unannounced project, are allegedly launching this year.

In a press release covering the recent Sonic Lost World news, Nintendo of Germany stated:

“Today, they (Sega) revealed further details of the second of three titles, which the two companies will release exclusively on Wii U and 3DS. All three games will be released this year.”

I’m having a difficult time believing this. Mario & Sonic seems like a game suited for 2014, and we have yet to see the third Sonic game. Stranger things have happened, though!
