Update (11/11/13): Teaser site was fir a mobile title.
Earlier today, Namco Bandai went live with a new Japanese teaser site. You can find it here.
The site doesn’t offer many clues other than the words “break burst”. We’ll find out what’s being teased here in six days.
Actos Games’ puzzle RPG “Apexicon” has a shot at coming to Wii U. The Wii U version will be made, thanks to the Nintendo Web Framework, if Kickstarter funds reach $20,000.
The game itself needs $15,000 in donations in order to reach its target goal. The Kickstarter ends on December 1st.

In Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, players can rate each of the game’s missions. Users are given the option of handing out up to five stars.
Ubisoft Motreal user research project manager Jonathan Dankoff told NowGamer that the data provided will assist the company in improving future titles. He said:
“Ubisoft is actually using all of this data to improve future games. Ubisoft has been using data tracking to improve our titles for a while, but this is the first time we will be able to match gameplay metrics to player appreciation in order to dig even deeper into player behavior.
“The combination of the two data sources will give us incredible insight into how players are interacting with our game and guide future development teams to create missions that appeal to our players even more.”
Wondering which mission is Assassin’s Creed IV’s highest-rated thus far? Dankoff revealed:
“We’re still in the early stages of collecting data, but already at this stage it’s impressive to see how closely the mission ratings mirror the results from our own pre-launch playtest sessions. The current favorite mission decided by our fans is Sequence 02 Memory 06: The Treasure Fleet, but I look forward to seeing how the data evolves as more people play!”

Along with today’s screenshot, Sakurai passed along the following message on Miiverse:
Plant it, water it, and then timber! It’s high maintenance but totally worth the effort! It needs tactics like never before.
This neat video popped up on the eShop. Didn’t see it elsewhere, so I figured I’d go ahead and upload it. You can watch Eiji Aonuma himself transform into a drawing… and run around New York!
