Casual Arts, the team behind the DSiWare games Oscar in Toyland, Oscar in Toyland 2, and Oscar in Movieland, is developing new games for the 3DS.

Thus far, Casual Arts has only shared details about “The Sleeping Palace”. The hidden object game has players taking on the role of Sophia Fay, a girl who is suffering from memory loss. You’ll be navigating through the Palace Laroche in hopes of discovering why its residents are in a magical sleep.

A release is planned for 2013. Casual Arts is also working on one 3DS game that is due out by Halloween and a third title for Christmas.

Most of you have probably heard about the Angry Video Game Nerd before. In his popular web series, James Rolfe blasts games from the past.

A brand new video game based on AVGN was announced earlier this month for PC. Today, it was revealed through the title’s official Facebook page that a release is also planned for “Nintendo consoles”.

The word “consoles” seems to imply that Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures will be heading to the Wii U eShop as well as the 3DS eShop.

FreakZone Games is working on Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures. It incorporates action, platforming, and shooting gameplay, and takes inspiration from the likes of Mega Man and Castlevania.

Kaio: King of Pirates is an odd case. Despite having announced the game a year and a half ago, relatively little has been shared by developer Comcept and publisher Marvelous AQL.

But don’t work: Kaio is still coming. Comcept CEO Keiji Inafune told Siliconera that development is “going well”, though because a manga and anime are also involved, “we can’t just show the game.”

“Marvelous AQL is the publisher and there are plans to make a manga and anime. At Comcept, we’re producing the game and it’s going well. There is a total effort with all of these collaborators for the Kaio intellectual property, so we can’t just show the game. It’s basically not our choice.”

This week’s GameStop ad has gone live. There aren’t too many highlights, but as previously announced, those who pre-order Watch Dogs will receive an exclusive poster.

The full lineup of deals can be found in the circular below:

While we’re on the topic of 3DS block sizes, here’s another one for you: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. The game comes in at a whopping 17,693 blocks.

That’s larger than Style Savvy’s 10,500 total and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate’s 14,275 amount.

Capcom previously said that Ultimate is 1.76GB. Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D should, therefore, be somewhere around 2GB.
