Arc System Works will be releasing another original title on the Japanese eShop next week.
Usagimaru is a new title with action, adventure, and puzzle elements. Players will take on the role of a rabbit who is trying to rescue the residents of Mononoke.
Players will need to complete various levels to save the villagers. There will be traps along the way, but you can use different objects to journey ahead. Partner characters will be at your disposal as well.
Usagimaru launches on October 10 for 500 yen.
Two more cameo appearances have been confirmed for Project X Zone. Mega Man X4’s Iris and .hack’s Aura will show up during the adventure. Iris will specifically appear during event scenes.
This may be a bit obvious, but I thought it would be worthwhile to mention that Ubisoft has confirmed that all of Assassin’s Creed III’s downloadable content will be coming to Wii U. The console won’t be included in the just-announced season pass program, however.

Starting on November 1, Nintendo will make eight older 3DS retail games available on the Japanese eShop.
So let’s say you have the physical version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. What happens if you want to make the switch to digital? What happens to the save data?
Obviously the save data is tied to the 3DS cart, so it wouldn’t work with the downloadable version. In spring of next year, however, Nintendo will release a tool that allows users to transfer data between their physical and downloadable copies.
Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime tackled a few more questions in an interview with AllThingsD.
He first commented on Miiverse, which he feels will be an unexpected hit and will grow to become “a true killer application for the system.”
Other topics include Nintendo’s broad competition, forecasts and productions for Wii U, and more.
Look for Reggie’s comments below.
