D3Publisher has shared its lineup for E3 2012. The company’s content focuses on licensed products including Ben 10 and the Madagascar franchise.

The full lineup is as follows:

· Rise of the Guardians: The Video Game
· Ben 10: Omniverse

· iCarly: Groovy Foodie!

The only notable omission is the Adventure Time game for the 3DS/DS. It’s due out later this year.


This is probably one of the better “Nintendo Download” weeks for North America in months. We’re getting a 3DS and Wii VC game, a 3DS Download title, a 3DS demo, and a DSiWare release.

This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following featured content:

Nintendo eShop
Rayman® – This classic, award-winning platformer is the first game in the Rayman series – now available on Nintendo 3DS™. Explore six unique worlds and play through more than 70 levels of platforming madness. (For Nintendo 3DS)


IGN has published a new interview with The Last Story director Hironobu Sakaguchi. In case you’ve forgotten, the Wii RPG is due out in a little over a month.

Sakaguchi commented on the game’s battle system, what it was like being a director again after a long hiatus, how the team dealt with the Wii’s SD resolution limitation, and more.

You can find all of Sakaguchi’s remarks below.


Note: Screenshots aren’t from the Wii version, but you can expect similar gameplay.
