It’s unfortunately not the best quality, but we do have a trailer showing what Terraria looks like on 3DS. We’ve attached the video below.
A couple of videos have come in showing the upcoming Wii U eShop game Sanatory Hallways. Take a look at the game’s bonus mode and versus mode below.
Sanatory Hallways launches this Thursday on the European Wii U eShop.
Last month, Play-Asia posted a listing on its website which indicated that the Metallic Blue New 3DS XL might be coming to North America this month. New information has since come to light which may shed more light on the situation.
The thought right now is that Play-Asia could have been referring to the Metallic Blue’s launch in countries like Singapore and Malaysia. North American 3DS games and eShop downloads are compatible with systems from these territories.
Technically, a Metallic Blue New 3DS XL release in North America hasn’t been officially ruled out. But if there are plans to launch the color variation in the U.S. this month, Nintendo would need to make an announcement pretty soon.

Nikkei recently put out a report discussing all the trials and tribulations going on internally with Konami. Lots of interesting tidbits are in there regarding drastic changes as well as a good look into why everything has shifted so much in the last couple of months, but one of the most notable points is to hear that Konami has lent the license for Momotaro Dentetsu to Nintendo to release on their platforms.
For those unfamiliar, there has been quite a bit of animosity between Konami and the series creator Akira Sakuma lately in regards to Momotaro Dentetsu – the extremely popular board-game style video game in Japan – due to creative issues, power struggles, financial disagreements and more. A couple of months ago, that all came to an end when Akira Sakuma had announced via Twitter that he was done with the Momotaro Dentetsu series due to repeated disagreements, stating in early June “Konami hasn’t gotten in touch with me at all. This is how they’ve tossed me aside for a while now. I’m announcing here that Momotaro Dentetsu is officially done. Ishikawa at Konami squelched everything.”
Fast-forward to now and it seems the series will continue even without its beloved creator with Konami lending the license to Nintendo for a planned 2016 release, only asking for the licensing fee in this partnership. Konami owns the IP as well as former developer Hudson Soft, so they have every right to continue developing and licensing Momotaro Dentetsu, even if fans and its creator say it’s done.
It’s certainly an interesting choice that Nintendo would scoop this particular title up and not some of their other well-known properties. Though this is certainly something that will only be released in Japan, what are some of Hudson Soft’s IP that you’d like to see revived and on Nintendo platforms?
