We all get inspiration from different places. Some of us get our ideas while driving or while taking a shower. As for Yoshiaki Koizumi… he came up with the moon element for Zelda: Majora’s Mask through a simple daydream! The Nintendo developer recently told the Official Nintendo Magazine:
“Occasionally I also take images from dreams. Perhaps I am a little bit different from Mr Miyamoto in that sense. So if I could just give an example of one of those idle daydreams that turns into an idea for a game, I would look up at the moon and think about what would happen if the moon started to fall towards Earth. From that idea we moved onto the world in Majora’s Mask which is threatened by being destroyed by the moon.”
Update: Apparently this game is called “Sengoku Basara 3 Utage”. Andriasang mysteriously updated their report without providing clarification, so let’s just go with this name for now.
Capcom is readying an update for Sengoku Basara 3 for Wii and PS3, Sengoku Basara 3 En, which is set for a release in Japan this fall. Famitsu reports that the title contains new elements such as co-op gameplay and at least eight new generals. Additionally, En will feature new gameplay systems.
“En” means feast or party in Japanese. So it makes sense that the title revolves around light-hearted stories and drama/party themes.
A new Metal Max game (well, kind of) for DS is apparently in the works for the DS. Yes, DS, not 3DS! Magazine leaks from Famitsu indicate that Metal Max 2 Reloaded, a remake of the SNES game, is heading to Japan this winter. Limited edition packages will be prepared for the title’s release.
This was a pretty light leak, since actual details about the game haven’t been posted anywhere just yet. Hopefully we’ll get some details and scans soon.
