Atlus has launched some sort of new teaser site, which is set to expire on November 24 – quite a long ways away. Although there isn’t much to see, the Persona team appears to be involved. The official Persona Twitter account tweeted the site’s location earlier today and the page also features the P-Studio logo.
You can get a look at the new teaser site here.
Mighty No. 9 has reached yet another goal in its Kickstarter campaign. Donations have surpassed $2.55 million, meaning the game will now include an extra end stage and boss.
There’s five days remaining in Mighty No. 9’s Kickstarter. The game’s next stretch goal? It’s none other than a “Beck & Call” online co-op challenge mode.
Interested in some expensive Mario figures? Don’t worry! First 4 Figures has your back.
You can choose from either the standard Tanooki Mario or Tanooki Mario Exclusive, both of which are 15 inches and are priced at $199.99 / $239.99 respectively.
The differences between the two concern the contents and availability. Tanooki Mario comes with the figure plus perch, and is limited to 2,000 units. The deluxe edition includes the Tanooki Mario, grassy block, a ? block, a Tanooki leaf, and a red scarf. It’s limited to 750 units.
Update (9/29): Reminder: it’s tomorrow!
It’s been awhile, but we’re finally hosting another Game Night this weekend – and the schedule should be on track from here on out.
Join us this Sunday at 4 PM ET / 1 PM PT for some Wii U/3DS online fun. We’ll open the chat about a half hour before things begin. I’m guessing Mario Kart 7 will be the game of choice on 3DS, and possibly Black Ops II on Wii U.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD wasn’t a completely internal Nintendo project. HexaDrive also worked on the game, according to the studio’s website.
HexaDrive is well-known for developing remakes and HD versions of games. The company was involved with Okami HD, Rez HD, and Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.
We should mention that Hexadrive also worked on another recent Wii U release. The studio helped out Platinum Games for the creation of The Wonderful 101, too.
The Famicom celebrated its 30th anniversary this past July. To commemorate the occasion, Nippon Columbia will be releasing a large collection of game music in a package called “Nintendo Famicom Music”.
The sounds of so many classics and masterpieces from the NES generation were extracted from actual software, which became clear only recently.
The recorded music sources are as follows:
– ROM Cassette: Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Wrecking Crew, Balloon Fight, Dr. Mario, Famicom Wars, Devil World, Donkey Kong Jr, Donkey Kong 3, Baseball, Soccer, Clu Clu Land, Ice Climbers, Mach Rider, Mario Bros., and Super Mario Bros. 3
– Disk System: FDS BIOS, The Legend of Zelda, Nazo no Murasame J?, Metroid, Kid Icarus, The Adventure of Link, Shin Onigashima, Volleyball, Wrestling, and Super Mario Bros 2
The Nintendo Famicom Music CD will be available on November 20 in Japan. Pricing is set at 2400 yen ($24).
Unsurprisingly, Monster Hunter 4 was a huge endevour for Capcom. Speaking in an internal interview, series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto said “a few hundred people” contributed to the game’s development.
How does that compare to other Capcom games? DmC Devil May Cry, a fairly high-profile release, saw a development team of “over 90 members”. Resident Evil 6, on the other hand, experienced a staff count of over 600 people.
