CyberConnect2 is working on some sort of new Solatorobo game. We’re not sure what it is yet, and studio CEO Hiroshi Matsuyama isn’t willing to reveal any details at present.
At the Solatorobo: Red the Hunter 2nd Anniversary fan event, however, he teased that “a certain project is moving along.” During the event, which took place in Japan on Saturday, he additionally hinted: “I’m sure there will be something good next year.”
The most interesting part of this is that you get to see the insides of both controllers!
A new downloadable reward is available on Club Nintendo.

A rumor surfaced yesterday suggesting that Rayman Legends could be out on February 26. Ubisoft isn’t quite ready to confirm that date, however.
When asked about the speculation, a representative said:
“Ubisoft confirms that Rayman Legends is scheduled for release in early 2013. The team is working hard to finalize the game and is looking forward to sharing more details with fans very soon!”
Rayman Legends could still be on track for February 26, but we’ll have to wait a little longer for Ubisoft to either confirm or deny the date.
