We recently heard that the 3DS version of Defend Your Crypt is slated for July 21 in Europe. Unsurprisingly, a listing on the eShop now confirms the same date on Wii U as well.
Here’s a trailer:
Defend Your Crypt doesn’t have a date yet in North America, but it should be out soon.
Nintendo scored huge wins from the E3 2016 Game Critics Awards. Today, it was announced that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was chosen as “Best of Show”, beating out Battlefield 1, Dishonored 2, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Sea of Thieves, and Titanfall 2. The upcoming NX and Wii U title also won “Best Console Game” and “Best Action/Adventure Game”.
There was one other Nintendo-related winner as well. Skylanders Imaginators was voted on as “Best Family Game”.
The E3 2016 Game Critics Awards have been an annual tradition for well over a decade. Representatives from major global media outlets make up the lineup of judges, including GameSpot, Game Informer, TIME, and much more.
GiantBomb has 90 minutes of footage up from the final English version of Monster Hunter Generations. Take a look at the gameplay below.
Android users now have access to a new version of Miitomo. Earlier today, version 1.3.1 released. We haven’t seen any equivalent on iOS (at least for now), and given the version change, this likely implements some bug fixes.
Eternal Darkness creator Denis Dyack spoke with YouTube user SuperMetaldave64 in a new podcast published today. Dyack gave an update on the Shadow of the Eternals project, his experience working with Shigeru Miyamoto and Satoru Iwata, his excitement for NX, and more.
Here are a few excerpts:
On Shadow of the Eternals…
“There’s likely to be some announcements in the not-too-distant future. When we actually do it, I can’t say at this point, but I do think that there’s going to be a couple of shockers coming. I’m really looking forward to seeing what the responses are. We’re really excited. And remember as well, our company we’re not just doing games, so we’re pairing with television and film as well so it’ll be a myriad of things coming out on some of the things that we’re doing. It’s going to be very different.”
Back when Monster Hunter Generations was launching in Japan, Capcom unveiled a special Zelda collaboration for the game. Players were able to dress their Palico as Link from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
This same collaboration is now confirmed for the west. Capcom prepared a new trailer today – highlighted below – showing Link in action. He’ll be available as free DLC.
We covered this pretty heavily last week, but the official English transcript for Nintendo’s 76th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is now live. You can read it in full here. There isn’t anything new compared to what we posted a few days ago, though it’s worth a read if you missed it the first time around!
Four Horses made it known recently that Digger Dan DX had been pulled from the 3DS eShop. An unfortunate situation had developed, and First Star Software (owner of the Boulder Dash rights) asked Nintendo for its removal. Many had thought that Digger Dan DX would be gone permanently, but it looks like that won’t be the case at all.
Here’s the latest from Four Horses:
I am happy to announce that I received an immediate response from First Star Software, Inc. having contacted them on Sunday, and we have already settled this issue to our mutual satisfaction. (In fact I’m thrilled with the terms.) I hope to get Digger Dan DX back on sale as soon as possible though, due to the re-submission processes with Nintendo, this may take a few months. Hopefully much less. (I don’t know yet.)
Definitely good to hear that it’s all been settled! When Digger Dan DX does return to the eShop, you’ll be the first to know.
Earlier this year, Back in 1995 released on Steam. The indie game was created as a love-letter to the survival horror and mystery experiences from the PlayStation days. In the game, players “uncover the mystery surrounding the disappearance of your daughter, the catastrophe that shook the city, and why you’ve decided to finally return.”
Here’s a trailer for the original release:
It’s now been confirmed that Back in 1995 is making its way to 3DS, and it’ll be shown at BitSummit this weekend. The new version will be called “Back in 1995 64”. On the lower screen, you’ll see a Virtual Game Console. Sometimes irregularities will occur which will hamper the gameplay on upper screen, such as cables getting loose or cartridges needing to be re-inserted, reminding people to things that actually often happened 20 years ago.
On another note, Back in 1995 64 is planned to be compatible with the whole 3DS series. However, there’s a a precaution that it might end up only supporting the New 3DS.
We previously reported on an interview about Miitomo between Earthbound creator Shigesato Itoi and Miitomo producer Yoshi Sakamoto. The interview is split into multiple parts – a total of 6 will be released. Parts 3 and 4 are now available here.
