You can watch the latest episode of Dinosaur Office on the North American Nintendo Video service in 3D with higher-quality.
Don’t expect Tecmo Koei to localize Dynasty Warriors Vs. The company’s European community manager, Chin Soon Sun, has ruled out the possibility of a North American/European release.
Sun wrote on Twitter:
“Dynasty Warriors VS (for the Nintendo 3DS) – This title is for Japan only & will not be localized and released for / in overseas.”
The sales of Samurai Warriors: Chronicles probably played a role in Tecmo Koei’s decision. I don’t believe it sold well, so Tecmo Koei is probably hesitant to localize a similar title for overseas territories.
Square Enix’s Tetsuya Nomura has confirmed the recent Kingdom Hearts 3D demo for North America. Nomura mentioned the news in the latest issue of Famitsu.
He said:
“We’ve decided to distribute a KH3D demo in North America as well as Japan. You can play part of Sora’s scenario in Traverse Town. So if your friends haven’t played it yet, you can recommend it to them…”
Nomura didn’t say anything about Europe, but I imagine it’ll be released there as well.
The Kingdom Hearts 3D demo is comprised of some gameplay in Traverse Town. Players use Wonder Nyan, Neko Cat and Kuma Panda as members of their Dream Eater party. The demo can be experienced up to fifteen times.

More downloadable content is heading to Fire Emblem: Awakening next week.
Nintendo has announced two pieces of DLC for May 17. The first piece gives players an opportunity to add Ephraim – a character from The Sacred Stones – to their party. The second DLC is titled “Mummy Paradise” and is mission-based.
Fire Emblem: Awakening users will be able to purchase Ephraim for 350 yen and Mummy Paradise for 300 yen next Thursday.
Nicalis abandoned its commitment to bring La-Mulana to the North American and European WiiWare service. However, that doesn’t mean developer Nigoro would be against a new publishing agreement with an entirely different company.
When asked if the studio would continue to look into an overseas launch for La-Mulana WiiWare, director Takumi Naramura said:
“The game is completed, we welcome the offer from a publisher. Since there are people who have Wii for playing La-Mulana, I want to do something.”
Given how late we are into the Wii’s lifecycle, it’s unlikely that another publisher would pick La-Mulana up. I wonder if Nigoro would give any consideration to a Wii U version…
