One last bump for this, as Discussing Everything is today! You can find a countdown here.
Last week’s debut of Discussing Everything went much better than I initially expected. There were plenty of discussions about a wide array of topics, and we ended up continuing the talk for an extra hour!
I do want to maintain the momentum we gained last week by hosting another Discussing Everything on Sunday. However, I unfortunately have something personal to attend to… meaning this week’s event will be on the short side. We’ll again be kicking things off at 4 PM ET / 1 PM PT, but due to the short nature of the talk, it will be entirely dedicated to Super Smash Bros. for 3DS. I imagine you guys will have plenty to say in any case given that the game is launching on Friday!
So join us on Sunday to chat a bit about the new Smash Bros. Hope to see some of you then!
Underground is not your typical title. Four years ago, Grendel Games – in cooperation with the University Medical Center Groningen and LIMIS Foundation – set out to create an experience for Wii that can be used to help surgeons in training. Development is still ongoing, but Underground has almost come to fruition – and as a Wii U release.
“It is true that the title was initially planned for Wii, but as it seemed the whole Wii market was starting to fade out, so we switched to Wii U,” producer Stavros Tsikinas told Nintendo Everything. “For serious purposes (surgeon training), that wouldn’t make a significant difference, because either way the game would be used. On the other hand, we wanted to get into the Wii U market for the commercial reasons. Those four years were very intensive, difficult, tiring, but very rewarding as well.”
It’s been a little while since we last featured a game from an independent developer on the top of Nintendo Everything through the “Weekly Screenshot” feature, but after Shin’en wrapped up their tenure with us showcasing exclusive Art of Balance images, we decided to take our time looking for a developer that had a game with something worth sharing with your eyes. Our choice this time? Mobot Studios’ Paper Monster Recut, which falls under the categories of “Wii U eShop game” and “charming platformer”. You can find plenty of info about the game around the site through the sidebar to the right.
Our liaison at Mobot Studios is Jon Williams, and he’s going to give us a bit of context on the intriguing screenshot above:
“Here’s our first screenshot. It’s from a new night time level in the first world of the game. We really like the look we were able to achieve with the angle of light from the moon reflecting off the top of objects, the glow from the new bloom lighting, and the real time shadows that are all new in Paper Monsters Recut.”
At the Sonic Boom 2014 fan event, SEGA had news to share regarding the upcoming animated TV series. It’s now been confirmed that the show will debut on November 8. Fans will be able to watch Sonic Boom on Cartoon Network.
Paper Monsters Recut is coming to the North American Wii U eShop on October 16, developer Mobot Studios has announced. The game will be available for $7.99.
If you’re interested in Paper Monsters Recut, I suggest stopping by the site later today. We’ll have a little something extra pertaining to the game!
Fatal Frame: The Black Haired Shrine Maiden has some unlockable outfits. And they’re quite risque, to say the least.
Head past the break for screenshots. You’ve been warned!
