A new 3DS update is now available for download. Apply the upgrade and the system’s firmware will be brought up to version 6.3.0-12.
As far as updates go, this one is minor. It’s mainly intended to improve the 3DS’ stability. Keep in mind you’ll need to update your system before being able to access the eShop.
Platinum Games has updated its Wonderful 101 blog with yet another post. You can find it here. Today’s update covers the game’s Wonderful Missions.
Splinter Cell: Blacklist launched last month in the US. Having been on the market for about a week, the game did fairly well. Total sales were under 300,000, though we don’t have the specifics.
Unfortunately, it would appear that Blacklist did terribly (that may be putting it mildly) on Wii U. According to NeoGAF poster “creamsugar”, who has pretty much always been spot on with NPD data, just 1.6 percent of the title’s sales came from the Wii U version. This would put Blacklist’s Wii U sales under 5,000 – a paltry figure, to be sure.
Expect a whole lot more of Bravely Default in the future. Going forward, producer Tomoya Asano hopes to launch “a product relating to Bravely Default every year.”
Asano comment comes from a recent Famitsu interview. He didn’t necessarily say that we’ll be seeing a new mainline entry each year, so we can probably count on things such as spinoffs.
