Platinum Games and Nintendo teamed up for the first time while creating The Wonderful 101. Because the two companies didn’t have much contact in the past, both maintained certain assumptions about the other.
On Platinum’s side, director Hideki Kamiya thought Nintendo “would be very business-like” and was a bit surprised as to “how human” the company was. Meanwhile, according to Nintendo producer Hitoshi Yamagami, the Big N assumed Kamiya would be “scary”.
A discussion in the latest Iwata Asks goes into further detail about Nintendo and Platinum’s initial working relationship:
Forgotten Memories is launching on the Wii U eShop sometime within the next few months, as well as PS Vita and iOS. For the latter platform, developer Psychoz Interactive has confirmed that a demo is on the way.
What about Wii U? Psychoz says that the demo could very well head to the console as well.
Nintendo opened a new teaser site for Band Brothers P today, which contains a few more details about the title. You can access it here.
Intelligent Systems, the same developer behind Fire Emblem, is working on Band Brothers P. The game’s website also indicates that Vocaloid synthesizer software is being used – the same tech involved with production of Vocaloid music for virtual pop-stars including Hatsune Miku.
As mentioned previously, Band Brothers P can take advantage of the 3DS camera to take a picture and the built-in microphone to record your voice. In turn, your very own Vocaloid will be created.

Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward suffered from a significant bug when it launched last year. All 3DS retail copies came with an issue that caused save corruption and game crashing.
Aksys finally published Virtue’s Last Reward on the eShop last week. As it turns out, this version comes without the bug. Now the question is: will the retail version finally be patched to address the glitch?
