Nano Assault™ challenges players through 32 twisted cell stages and dark worlds with rugged landscapes that adjust in difficulty based upon the player’s skill level.

Mushroom Kingdom and DRAGON QUEST Characters Inhabit New Game for Wii
REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– If you work hard, invest your money and make smart choices, soon you’ll be making a bundle on Fortune Street™. The virtual board game for the Wii™ console launches today and invites players of all ages to try something new: navigating the stock and real estate markets to maximize their wealth and take control of the board. The game will have everyone in the family having fun together and competing to see who will be living large in the living room.
The game lets players choose from more than 20 characters from different worlds. Mario™, Princess Peach™ and Bowser™ are among those representing the Mushroom Kingdom, while Angelo, Bianca and Slime are some of the DRAGON QUEST® characters in this Square Enix-developed game. Players can also opt to play as their own Mii™ characters, and can even choose custom clothing and accessories once they earn enough stamps. Mii characters can dress as ninjas, be surrounded by three shells or even dress as Mario or other characters from the game.
In October, ex-Capcom director Keiji Inafune announced his first original project after leaving the company. It was revealed that his new studio, Intercept, has been working on a new 3DS title named “King of Pirates”.
We’ve been waiting for some concrete details on the project, as well as an actual in-game trailer. Thankfully, we may not have to wait much longer for new information.
Marvelous AQL lists the game as “playable” for next week’s Jump Festa event in Japan. Hopefully this means King of Pirates will be seeing a proper blowout soon. If not, we’ll at least find out how the game plays!

Nintendo has posted a new third-party edition of Iwata Asks, which can currently be read in Japanese. Although a large portion of the interview was about Monster Hunter Tri G, Satoru Iwata managed to sneak in a few questions about the fourth entry in the hugely successful franchise.
Capcom’s Kaname Fujioka started off by revealing that the debut trailer shown in September was actual gameplay footage, played by the development team.
Fujioka and series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto also discussed Monster Hunter 4’s development. The game has been worked on alongside Tri G and the staff from MH4’s team have been able to learn a great deal from Tri G, primarily because they’re now familiar with the 3DS hardware.
The time between Tri G’s announcement up to its release will be about three months. As you might expect, the game’s development cycle was rather short. The team almost reached a point where they’d say, “if you’re not sure, just put it in.” This forced the staff to show constant results.
Fujioka acknowledged that the MH4 developers are under a fairly large amount of pressure. Additionally, he believes that there is a chance that the team could fail if they worked on the project in the way they’ve made other games in the series. Capcom will once again be looking to show results on a regular basis, and the trailer shown in September was one of the first examples of showing results for Monster Hunter 4.

Retailer blog Sinobi has listed shipment numbers for upcoming release of Monster Hunter Tri G. The site claims that Capcom has sent out 420,000 units in total for the game’s first pressing. That’s 300,000 units for the standard edition, 100,000 copies for the Slide Pad bundle, and another 20,000 for the 3DS hardware bundle.
Given the huge popularity of Monster Hunter in Japan, these numbers may seen slightly low. But Sinobi states that Capcom probably accounted for Tri’s sales on Wii when considering the shipment numbers for the 3DS title.
