Is this the best pre-order bonus ever? Certainly not! But it’s still a neat item to add to one’s collection. If you want the poster, make sure you head down to EB Games (not valid online). Oh, and make sure you live in Australia…
Last year, “Kyabajo Pi for 3DS” was announced along with a number of other titles for the platform. The game has resurfaced in Famitsu this week and while there doesn’t appear to be any new information (at least not yet), we do know that it has a new name. “Kyabajo Pi for 3DS” will now be known as Girls’ RPG Cinderella Life. It’ll be released in Japan sometime this year.
Reggie on how Nintendo can explain Wii U to those who haven’t played it…
“What we are doing with Wii U is creating an ability for games to leverage two different screens; the big screen in your room, and the smaller handheld screen in front of you. By doing so it opens up all of these different experiences. The experience I use to describe it to someone is to imagine a first person shooter, where instead of constantly having to look at the screen, now I’ve got things happening all around me.
“It’s a great experience. I don’t think it’s going to be a hard sell. I think that communicating to consumers through the magic of the second window, you can have a totally unique experience, with another player still in the room… I don’t think it’s a difficult sell.”
This information comes from Resident Evil: Revelations producer Masachika Kawata…
“The graphics on Mercenaries are some of the best you can see at the moment. We’ve been working really hard though to make sure that when Revelations comes out next year, that will really blow people away graphically.”
What we’ve seen thus far of Revelations has been very impressive. It’s one of the best-looking 3DS games right now for sure.
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.
