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.
Capcom teamed up with the band “Dragon Ash” for a new Japanese Resident Evil: Revelations HD promo. You can find it below.
This week’s video additions to the 3DS eShop are as follows:
Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon Accolades Trailer
Color Commando Trailer
Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis/Move-Main Event Trailer
Mega Man 4 Trailer
LEGO City: Undercover The Chase Begins Trailer

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.
Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move is due out in roughly two weeks. When it launches, you won’t need much space on an SD card to download the game. Those with access to Minis on the Move say that it only comes in at 426 blocks – a rather small download.
Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move will launch in North America on May 13. Pricing is set at $9.99.
If you had any remaining doubt that the next Call of Duty game would be something other than Ghosts, you may want to take a look at the image above.
The photo comes from today’s new Call of Duty teaser site, which was discovered through the source code. It’s clearly a reference to the “Ghosts” subtitle that will be included in the name of the next Call of Duty.
Look out for an official announcement from Activision soon.
