– Prototype shown at the end of 2008
– Director Kuniomi Matsushita and other staff members started working on it long before then
– Background was created with black ink art style, many people were impressed with it
– They then showed a character and the impressions were still very positive
– Character was originally Amaterasu, not Chibiterasu
– Matsushita felt pressure about finalizing a project plan, lead character designer randomly approached Matsushita and said he made Amaterasu’s child, plan solidified when Matsushita saw it
– Matsushita will sign the artwork above along with the rest of the staff when the game’s development is finished
Thanks to Thomas N for the tip!
Sadly, there is a rumor going around that two of Nintendo’s biggest releases this year – Metroid: Other M and Sin and Punishment: Star Successor – have been delayed. The Sin and Punishment sequel will allegedly be pushed back to June 27th, but Other M has been left without a specified date. According to Best Buy and Walmart listings, both titles will indeed be delayed, but nothing is official yet. We asked Nintendo if there is any truth to the speculation, though we were simply told that the company “doesn’t comment on rumors or speculation.”
