Yacht Club Games will be at PAX East, as will the studio’s first game – so it seems. The company posted a banner image to its Facebook page indicating that the unannounced title will be present in some form. First details will be revealed in the next issue of Nintendo Force.

Last week, Yacht Club announced the formation of the studio. Various members of WayForward joined Yacht – specifically Sean Velasco, Ian Flood, Lee McDole, Erin Pellon, Nick Wozniak, and David D’Angelo.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies launched in Japan a little more than a week ago. How’d it do? Well, while sales did see an improvement over Miracle Mask, the game’s debut is the second-worst in the series.

A look at Professor Layton’s series sales at a glance:


(2007) Professor Layton and the Curious Village – 136,736
(2007) Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box – 293,897
(2008) Professor Layton and the Unwound Future – 347,360
(2009) Professor Layton and the Last Specter – 306,473
(2011) Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask – 119,591
(2013) Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies – 130,686

Azran Legacies is supposedly the last main Professor Layton game. One has to wonder what Level-5 has in store for the IP going forward.

Let’s get this out of the way: take the rumor below with a huge grain of salt. Now that that’s out of the way, we can proceed!

Rumor has it that a countdown for a new Crash Bandicoot game launched preemptively before being pulled. Someone took a screenshot that is oddly low-quality and off-screen (already raising a red flag), which shows that the project is coming to “PlayStation”, Xbox 360, and Wii U.

Vicarious Visions is supposedly behind the new Crash Bandicoot. In January, a possible redesign for the character was spotted in an official photo from the studio, though there hasn’t been any official news concerning the IP.

Could there actually be a new Crash Bandicoot on the way? Or is this nothing more than a disappointing rumor?

If Gero Blaster were to be released on 3DS, Nicalis would likely bring it over. The company previously ported Cave Story for the eShop and has a great relationship with Daisuke Amaya.

We’ve already seen a photo of Gero Blaster running on the 3DS. However, the game hasn’t necessarily been confirmed for the system. And so Nicalis would like to find out just how many people would be interested in seeing it on Nintendo’s handheld.

If you have a Twitter account, you can send a comment to Nicalis here.

We all know which one wins the “scariest” award…


This is a two question survey that requires no signing up, accounts, clicking through ads, or anything. Just answer a required question, answer a non-required question (if you want) and make your voice heard in yet another NintendoEverything reader survey poll thing! Results will be read in the form of our top ten list on the next podcast, and if you opted to answer the written question your answer could be read on the show! So don’t say anything ridiculous.

Thanks very much. As stated above the question for you guys this week is “Which dungeon area from “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” is your favorite?”

Take the survey here! (more details inside if you’re confused)
