Capcom prepared another round of screenshots from The Great Ace Attorney. Check them out below.
The latest Iwata Asks focusing on Splatoon has all sorts of interesting details about the game’s development. Additionally, the team even shared a few prototype designs from the project. You can find those images below, plus plenty of tidbits about how Splatoon came together. Did you know that it was only 10 percent complete at E3 2014?
Part 1
– The reaction to Splatoon at last year’s E3 was better than expected
– Amano made the announcement trailer
– This is different than usual since trailers tend to be made by an outside agency
– Splatoon began after Nogami finished working on Wii U’s launch; he worked on the system’s menu
– Nogami gathered the Wii U launch team members about creating “a new kind of game, without worrying about trying to fit into existing game genres”
– The team got together practically every day and brainstormed potential ideas
– There were over 75 ideas shared in about 6 months
– The last new character from EAD was 14 years ago (Pikmin)
– The team wasn’t trying to create a new character, but instead a new game structure
– Program director Sato made a demo, which had a white cube in a maze (tofu)
– In the demo, blocks shaped like tofu could shoot ink and steal each other’s turf
Bandai Namco released the first trailer for Super Robot Wars BX. View it below.
Nintendo has published a new Iwata Asks discussion which revolves around Splatoon. You can read it here. Shintaro Sato, Seita Inoue, Tsubasa Sakaguchi, Yusuke Amano, and Hisashi Nogami participated in the interview.
Journey of a Special Average Balloon is set for release on the North American Wii U eShop tomorrow. Check out some footage from the game below.
Another few minutes of Stone Shire footage has come in. You’ll find it in the video below.
Lightwood Games’ next eShop release is Word Party. The game will be launching for Wii U later this year. We don’t have too many details about it at present, but you’ll find a video below showing off a spelling bee mini-game.
