Nintendo Everything

Dementium Remastered’s European (and Australian) release is approaching. It’s been approved by Nintendo, and the game is targeted for launch on February 11.

When Dementium Remastered arrives in Europe, it will incorporate an update that has bug fixes and addresses an issue with occasional crashes when entering the map during puzzle sections. Players in North America will have access to the patch a little later.

Renegade Kid is also still tinkering away on Dementium II remastered. The studio hopes to submit it to Nintendo in both North America and Europe at the same time. Look for it in Q2 2016.

In the past, handheld versions of the LEGO games have been a bit compromised. Warner Bros. and TT Games usually deliver a different experience which doesn’t really match the console versions. With LEGO Marvel’s Avengers, however, the team has managed to include “a full free-roaming open world hub city”.

Director Steve Thornton wrote in a LEGO.com blog post:

“I’m incredibly pleased to announce that for the first time ever, we have a full free-roaming open world hub city on handheld; a full 1:1 scale rendition of the console Manhattan city hub is playable on both Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita, with no breaks, cuts or loading screens. Although capturing the console scale was important to us, we knew we couldn’t sacrifice life or activity, so the handheld city is also fully populated with traffic and pedestrian systems, props and Free Play content. In fact, there are over 100 Free Play objects in the city, connected to 15 handheld exclusive ‘hub challenges’

Listening to fans, we also know that although gamers value exclusive content, they also want the console and handheld experiences to become ever closer and offer the same feel and features. On this project we’ve worked closer with the console team than ever before, to ensure that the core features that define the LEGO Marvel’s Avengers experience are fully present on handheld. Many of these are traversal mechanics for blasting, boosting and leaping your way through the open world hub, including not only the Iron Man flight system and Quicksilver super speed, but the awesome Hyper Jump and Super Climb mechanics that bigger characters like Hulk can use to charge jump through the streets and smash up the side of skyscrapers. We spent a long time tweaking and balancing these mechanics to ensure they had the right weight and responsiveness, and they feel genuinely great to use.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate hasn’t been on sale at retail for awhile, but it’s now been discounted on Amazon again. You can pick it up for $30 as opposed to $40 ($10 savings). Put in an order here if interested.

Update: Rumor has come in early – potential new Paper Mario game. See this post.

This is sort of a new one! We have an announcement about a rumor coming sometime next week (update: Monday, see added forth tweet below).

Emily Rogers, Liam Robertson, and ShockingAlberto from NeoGAF have supposedly managed to dig up information regarding a new Wii U title. This is a Nintendo-published game as opposed to a third-party release. There’s apparently a decent amount of evidence behind the rumor, as 4-5 sources have provided information.

Rogers shared these messages on Twitter:

Knowing Emily, I don’t think she would be putting these tweets out there if she didn’t feel confident in her sources. Still, it’s important to keep in mind that this will be a rumor at the end of the day instead of something that’s being claimed as actual fact. We’ll see what happens come next week!

TiLMENDOMiNATiON has put together another comparison video for Hyrule Warriors Legends. We’re once again able to see how the game’s performance is on the New 3DS vs. the original model. Take a look at the comparison below.

Severed, the newest game from Guacamelee! developer DrinkBox Studios, is currently just a PlayStation Vita game. But could it planned for additional platforms, including one from Nintendo?

Yesterday, Severed was rated for 3DS in Brazil along with mobile platforms (and Vita). Perhaps this is a sign that DrinkBox is thinking about a potential 3DS version. Then again, Severed’s rating also includes 3DS – so maybe it’s just a mistake. Only time will tell!

We have another video showing gameplay from the Wii U eShop title Shadow Puppeteer. Catch 25 more minutes of footage below.

This is absolutely bizarre and random. But it’s also kind of amazing.

“Sir Kirby” has modded Super Smash Bros. Brawl so that Hyrule Temple can be played in the game. Someone told him to do it… so he went ahead and made it happen!
