La-Mulana made it out on the Japanese Wii Shop Channel a few months ago. The same cannot be said for the North American and European WiiWare service, though.
While it has taken a considerably long time for the game to arrive in overseas territories, it’s coming… soon.
Nicalis issued the following statement yesterday:
The L.A. Times has a new interview up with Shigeru Miyamoto. Miyamoto was asked to comment on his original “retirement” comments for the umpteenth time, and he apologized for any misunderstanding.
Besides this, there are some other interesting remarks included inside of the interview. Miyamoto is asked about his favorite Nintendo characters (he has a difficult time choosing just one), his influences, and more.
Head past the break for his responses.

Famitsu reports today that the 3DS has surpassed the four million units sold mark in Japan. It was widely expected that Nintendo’s handheld would reach this goal before the end of the year.
According to Enterbrain data, the 3DS sold a whopping 510,629 units between December 19 and December 25. This is the best-selling week for the portable thus far. Life-to-date 3DS sales in Japan are now at 4,135,739 units sold.
The 3DS itself wasn’t the only Nintendo product to reach new goals last week. Both Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 have now sold over one million copies in Japan. Famitsu states that, as of December 25, 3D Land is at 1,042,511 units sold while Mario Kart is at 1,082,391 units sold.
Today was Christmas, and seeing as how I’m a human-being who celebrates and enjoys all of the consumerism and materialistic goodness associated with the day, it was only natural that I would spend some time with my family and friends. I hadn’t planned on playing Just Dance. Heck, I was exhausted from how long the day was, but when I was urged to rekindle my relationship with the game, I just couldn’t resist. I stood up- Wiimote in hand- and danced my ass off to “Viva Las Vegas” and “Girlfriend”. Like every single time I’ve played that game, I came away completely baffled at how anyone could dislike it.
Nintendo has made tomorrow’s “Nintendo Direct” presentation official. The official site has been updated with a notice that the next event will take place tomorrow at 10 PM EDT / 7 PM PDT.
President Satoru Iwata has been dishing out some tweets regarding what to expect tomorrow. He said that the company will share news on titles that will be released up to the end of March 2012. There will be updates on games for both the 3DS and Wii. Don’t expect any Wii U information!
