Mad Dog McCree’s price has dropped on the 3DS eShop. From here on out, you can purchase the game for $4.99.
WayForward has given a look at Risky Boots in Shantae: Half-Genie Hero – the first time she’ll be appearing in an HD release.
Below is the official overview the studio shared a short while ago:
The self-proclaimed Queen of the Seven Seas wants to rule over Sequin Land….after all, someone of her exquisite beauty deserves nothing less! This bodacious buccaneer pillages poor Scuttle Town time and again in search of any ancient technology that could lead the way to world domination.
Her shadowy Tinkerbat crewmen are loyal and endless in numbers, constructing anything Risky Boots might need — from clockwork robots to steam powered doomsday weapons. Armed with a flintlock pistol and scimitar, the nefarious Risky Boots is ready to punish her foes up close and personal, or simply shoot them in the back.
Disney Infinity finally launched last month after being in development for a number of years. While we don’t have exact sales figures, Disney CFO Jay Rasulo said at the 2013 Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference this week that the company is very pleased with the game’s sales thus far.
Disney Infinity released with “huge interest,” Rasulo stated. It may be early, but sales “have been on par” – or maybe even a bit better – than Skylanders.
“I don’t want to be definitive about something that is in its early days, but if you think about a really great product that has come out recently that had some similarities to Infinity, which is Skylanders, Skylanders Giants in particular … our sales have been on par with that even though we launched in August and they do theirs in September or October. We’re on that scale, maybe better.
“All indications are great, but these are very early days.”
Rasulo confirmed that Disney Infinity’s average player is 13 years-old. This is older than Disney anticipated, and there’s even a “certain percent” of users over 20. Most gamers have been picking up Disney Infinity on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Nintendo has tucked away a pretty neat Easter egg in its newly-opened Zelda: Wind Waker HD site. Buried in the source code is none other than… the triforce.
This does appear to be an Easter egg, as the triforce code has no impact on the site itself. It’s displayed in a comments block – meaning it doesn’t influence the site’s look or functionality.
I suppose Nintendo wanted fans to do a little digging and come across this little discovery for themselves!
