I’m honestly not sure what this is or why it’s relevant, but I needed an image to make this look vaguely professional.
But Austin, what the heck am I about to vote on!?
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 the first ever 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 (and probably will!) be read on the show!
Thanks very much. As stated above the question for you guys this week is “What 3DS game(s) are you most looking forward to this coming year?”.
Dark Horse shared a public preview of its Hyrule Historia localization. Eight pages from the upcoming book can be found in the gallery above.
Next Friday, a special event will be held at the Nintendo World Store to celebrate the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia. Fans can gather between 6 PM and 8 PM to purchase the lengthy book in both standard and limited edition formats. Hyrule Historia officially goes on sale on January 29.
A few activities are planned for the launch party. At the time being, Nintendo has only mentioned a costume contest, but additional items are on the agenda.
Disney Infinity was finally unveiled this week. We know how the game will play out on the Wii U and Wii, but nothing has been said about the 3DS version.
Avalanche Studios chief creative officer John Blackburn did offer a few nuggets in an interview with Destructoid, noting it will offer “a very different experience” on Nintendo’s handheld.
Blackburn explained the type of gameplay that Disney Infinity offers on 3DS:
“The 3DS is a very different experience. They memory can’t handle all that stuff, so technologically we couldn’t do the same thing there. It’s more of a game you expect on a 3DS: You build teams with characters and they each have a mini-game that comes along with them. You can go and build out the different play fields that you’ll go through with your team, so there is a strategy component when you play with someone else.”
Fuzzy Wuzzy Games confirmed Armillo for the Wii U eShop yesterday. This isn’t the indie dev’s only project, however.
Along with Armillo, the team is working on another project that is being kept under wraps for now. Fuzzy Wuzzy’s James Saito would only divulge that it is “going to be unique in its own ways, instead of being more of a throwback like Armillo.”
Saito teased:
“Yes, but nothing official yet that we want to announce. One project has been in the planning stages for a few months and will soon approach prototyping. I won’t say anything except that it’s going to be unique in its own ways, instead of being more of a throwback like Armillo. But for now, our focus is on finishing Armillo and making it as good as we’d like.”
MercurySteam is packing in a hefty amount of content into Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate. Producer David Cox estimates a 16 hour play-through for those experiencing the title for the first time. Cox also believes it could take another 12 hours to finish a second time.
If you play Mirror of Fate to 100% completion, the play-through time will rise. You’ll be able to unlock a secret ending if you see and do everything the game has to offer.
Writing on Twitter, Cox said:
@cjviscito – Average first play thru is 16 hours. If you want to collect everything 100%? its longer, second play thru are around 12 hours
