A mysterious title was rated by the OFLC today. The Australian classification board has added in an entry for something called “Tekken Revolution”, a multi-platform release.
As far as we know, Namco Bandai hasn’t announced any such project. The OFLC does categorize the title under the “Computer Games” category and gave it an “M” rating – targeted for players 15 years and over.
Tekken Revolution’s OFLC rating comes hot on the heels of Namco Bandai’s “Tekken Arena” trademark filing in Europe. Could the two be related?
Thanks to Xolo for the tip.
Capcom has now launched the previously-announced Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate patch for Wii U. Once applied, the game will allow for cross-server support so that gamers in North America and Europe can play together. The update adds in off-TV play as well.
The update should begin downloading automatically. Get to it, hunters!
Nintendo Everything reader Cameron Thomas has brought an interesting retailer finding to our attention. UK outlet ShopTo is listing the “Animal Crossing Limited Edition Console Bundle 3DS” on its website with a release date of June 14 – the same day Animal Crossing: New Leaf launches in Europe.
ShopTo mentions that Animal Crossing is pre-installed on the system. A small box shot of the Japanese 3DS Animal Crossing bundle is included on the product page, too.
Could Nintendo be gearing up for a western Animal Crossing 3DS bundle announcement? One would assume that it’s the same product that Japan received last year. Perhaps we’ll hear something during this week’s Nintendo Direct…
There have already been a lot of rumors as to what Criterion Games is working on. Just recently, we heard that the studio could be working on Need for Speed: Underground before creative director Alex Ward debunked the speculation.
Criterion isn’t working on any Need for Speed game, apparently. The company isn’t making a new Burnout, Road Rash, or Black sequel either. That’s account to Ward, who once again took to Twitter and cleared up a few things for fans:
Another Kickstarter game may be coming to the Wii U or 3DS eShops (or perhaps retail, though that is somewhat less likely). Metroid-vania-esque title Chasm is currently trying to reach its goal of $150,000 for release on PC, Mac, and Linux, but that hasn’t stopped the developers from discussing its possible future on Nintendo platforms,
-Chasm Producer James Petruzzi
Judging by the trailers and screenshots I’ve seen of the game, this would definitely sell well on something like the Wii U! I know that I would likely pick it up (assuming it didn’t get absolutely awful reviews on PC), and I think a lot of you would as well. You can check out their Kickstarter page at the link in the first paragraph.
Normally when you hear about a Twitter controversy it’s surrounding a comment made that wasn’t necessarily offensive or hateful, but that offending or upset some people regardless. It’s a two-sided argument that could be defended with some swift PR moves and a few apologies. Today, Nintendo of Korea will have no such luck, because the following tweet (talking about a TV personality on Korea) was posted to their Twitter account, and is certainly very one-sided:
The tweet has, predictably, been removed. Rumors are circulating that someone mixed up their personal Twitter account with the one they manage (Nintendo of Korea), but Nintendo of Korea says they are certain no employees would have posted such a thing and they find the matter “frustrating”. Personally, I’m just surprised someone would post something so mean on any Twitter account, much less the one of a corporation! Too much hate, Tweeters.
Guild02 could be one of the new announcements made during this week’s Nintendo Direct.
Level-5 has renewed its black box teaser page, also teasing the news on Twitter:
The black box is back…! Do you know what it means? level5ia.com/blackb0x/
— LEVEL5_IA (@LEVEL5_IA) April 15, 2013
The last time Level-5 messed around with the black box page, we found out that the Guild01 games were heading to North America and Europe. That’s likely the same case this time around.
