Back in May, it was discovered that Elminage Original was coming to North America. Now a few months later, a release date has been announced.
Elminage Original is on track for August 10 in the states. Pricing is set at $19.99. Interestingly, Ninja Games Japan will be publishing rather than Rising Star Games.
Additional details about Elminage Original are below. We’ve included a new trailer as well.
Square Enix has announced plans to bring the first three Dragon Quest games to 3DS in Japan this month.
Dragon Quest I and Dragon Quest II will get things started next week – specifically August 10. Dragon Quest III will follow towards the end of the month.
Pricing for the three titles are set at 600 yen, 850 yen, and 1,500 yen respectively.
Dragon Quest XI has already surpassed another major milestone in Japan. At Dragon Quest Summer Festival 2017, Square Enix announced that combined total shipments and digital sales have surpassed three million units. The game only just released last week.
Media Create has already reported that Dragon Quest XI sold 1.1 million copies on 3DS in its first two days. Another 950,000 units were sold on PlayStation 4.
The results are in for the first true North American Splatfest in Splatoon 2. Ultimately, it was mayonnaise that beat out ketchup.
Ketchup was much more popular than mayonnaise with 73 percent of the vote. However, mayonnaise took home the battles – just barely so – in the other categories. That helped Team Mayonnaise win by a score of 2-1.
Mayonnaise was also victorious in Japan. We should be finding out about the European results later today.
The official teaser site for Metroid: Samus Returns is now live. You can access it here. The full site will open soon, but for now, the page has some screenshots and gameplay details.
Japan just had one of its best weeks in a long while in terms of gaming sales. Dragon Quest XI finally launched to huge success, and Nintendo shipping out a steady supply of Switch units also helped.
Console-wise, the sales of all 3DS systems combined sold 417.62 percent more than last week. Again, part of this was due to the release of Dragon Quest XI. Square Enix also put out a special Liquid Metal Slime New 2DS XL design, which was no doubt purchased by many consumers.
Recently, Famitsu spoke with Sonic series producer Takashi Iizuka and Sonic Forces producer Shun Nakamura. The two had much to say about the brand new custom character aspect and more.
First, Famitsu asked about the details on why character customization was added in Sonic Forces. Iizuka said that for many years in which he had been working on Sonic games, he received a ton of requests from fans to have their own original characters appear. While he has never been able to put in those characters exactly as they are, he still wanted to make those dreams come true, so SEGA decided to add a custom character that will fight together with Sonic.
The 1993 interactive movie game Night Trap is being revitalized this year. Originally, Screaming Villains hoped to bring the 25th Anniversary Edition to Switch. That looks like it won’t be happening, however.
Screaming Villains told one fan on Twitter that “Nintendo was on board originally but pulled out two days later for a very random reason.” The specific reason here is unknown.
Not happening unfortunately. Nintendo was on board originally but pulled out two days later for a very random reason. I tried.

So any theories as to what happened here, folks?
