Want to see an amazing painting come together in just four minutes or so? Then watch the video below. It’s impressive!
What do Fantasy Life, Bravely Default, Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion, and Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why’d you steal our garbage?! have in common? Other than the fact that they’re all 3DS titles, not much!
We do have details about all four games below. Head past the break for a large batch of information on each.
Disney Interactive doesn’t have a huge slate of games on its hands. There’s Epic Mickey 2, but what else?
Although it hasn’t been announced, CFO Jay Rasulo is teasing “another big title” that will be released “mid-year”.
According to Rasulo:
“We start the year right out with a big title ‘Epic Mickey 2,’ and another big title that hasn’t been announced yet, but coming mid-year, and continuing to grow in the social space.”
Rasulo wouldn’t give any clues as to what this “big title” is. For now, we’ll just have to speculate.
This week’s ESRB updates are as follows:

LEGO The Lord of the Rings (3DS) – E10+

A few more tidbits from Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime have been posted online, mainly relating to the difficulties in communicating messages to consumers.
In this latest Q&A, Reggie talked about the challenges of getting the right word out when it comes to new hardware. He specifically mentioned that it wasn’t so easy communicating the appeal of StreetPass on the 3DS, and the same applies for Wii U’s Miiverse.
Finally, Reggie commented on why Nintendo has been quiet about post-launch window titles for Wii U.
Head past the break for the goods.
A number of new Wii U games were confirmed at Nintendo’s press conference a few weeks back. There were some pretty big titles in that group: Bayonetta 2, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, and Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
Even though Nintendo did announce new games for the console, even more are on the way – and some will be released sooner rather than later.
When IGN prodded Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime, looking to obtain more information for interested fans, he told the site that more unannounced games are in the works, some of which will be available “during the launch window”. Unfortunately, Reggie wouldn’t say when we’ll learn about these mysterious releases.
Platinum Games is experienced in working with Nintendo handhelds – kind of. The studio made Infinite Space, but this was the only project they made for the handheld.
Platinum hasn’t announced any 3DS games, but the company is “very interested” in the platform.
Executive director Atsushi Inaba had this to say about the portable:
“We are very interested in the Nintendo 3DS as a platform. I view 3DS as a proper, straightforward evolution from a platform that has had huge success. Being able to view stereoscopic 3D with the naked eye is a great innovation, but very straightforward, so I’m very interested in it. Currently we have a lot of titles in development, and we can’t fund a 3DS game ourselves. So there’s nothing in the works. But I’m very positive on it.”
