EDGE is out on the Wii U eShop today. If you were hoping for a portable version though, you’ll be pleased to hear that Two Tribes has officially confirmed EDGE for the 3DS.
Cosmigo is handling the port. It’ll be largely the same game as its Wii U counterpart, including the same number of levels. On Wii U, EDGE’s map is located in the corner of the main screen, but on 3DS, it’s been moved to the touch screen.

Yacht Club Games has confirmed a few Nintendo-specific features for Shovel Knight. On 3DS, the game will incorporate StreetPass and stereoscopic 3D visuals. Wii U will make use of Miiverse integration.
Masahiro Sakurai published yet another column in this week’s Famitsu. Sakurai talked all about working on the new Smash Bros., games including his workload, schedule, living arrangements, and more. You can find a roundup of Sakurai’s quotes, courtesy of Polygon’s translations.
Two Japanese trademarks hint at future localizations for Dragon Quest titles. Don’t let the fact that they’ve been registered in Japan fool you – the names themselves are in English: “Luminaries of the Legendary Line” and “The Seeds of Salvation”.
Neither title actually includes the “Dragon Quest” name. But both use similar alliteration as past games, like Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen, Hand of the Heavenly Bride, Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation, and Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies. Previous overseas launches have also been outed first by trademarks.
