System: 3DS
Release date: June 23, 2017
Developer:: Grezzo
Publisher: Nintendo
At E3 last year, Nintendo showcased a brand new 3DS game from Grezzo. An action RPG curated by the team that gave us the Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask remakes, Ever Oasis gives us a look into the developer’s own original ideas and concepts and very much showcases what they can do. Is this creative idea enough to revive life into the 3DS, or should everybody find their own oasis back on the Switch?
New footage is live showing the just-released demo of Hey! Pikmin in Europe. See some gameplay below.
Software developer Abhishek Singh has come up with a neat new way of using Hololens. Singh recreated World 1-1 from Super Mario Bros., and projected the game’s obstacles and objects as holograms in New York’s Central Park.
It’s not perfect – you can technically walk around the obstacles for instance. Nonetheless, it’s an admirable fan project, and perhaps something that could be expanded upon in the future.
Imagineer is announcing that the studio is developing its first title for Switch. The studio is known for making the Medabots series and Kanji Test games, and they are also currently planning to release two other titles for portable systems this year.
For the one game Imagineer is developing for Switch, they’re taking after the concept of “can be enjoyed by anyone, anytime, and anywhere”. Various play styles will also be supported.
Imagineer’s mystery title is planned to be released in the next fiscal year (starting April 2018) or beyond.
