Eurogamer has published a new interview with Hyrule Warriors producer Hisashi Koinuma, Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi, and Koei Tecmo exec and Omega Force leader Akihiro Suzuki. The discussion naturally included more talk of the Wii U game, as well as topics like working with Nintendo again (plus Mario interest?!), and even Star Wars.
You’ll find a few excerpts from Eurogamer’s interview below. Head on over here for the full thing.
Nintendo will be removing The Band of Thieves & 1000 Pokemon from the Japanese 3DS eShop next Tuesday, it has been announced. The game was released in June and was created in conjunction with Pokemon XY The Movie – The Cocoon of Destruction & Diancie. The film’s run ends in most theaters on September 30.
With FAST Racing Neo, developer Shin’en will be looking to make a few improvements to the game’s predecessor.
First, phase switching has been “streamlined” and it’s now “more fun to use.” Shin’en also adjusted the AI so that it’s more human-like.
Shin’en Manfred Linzner told Nintendon:
First of all we analyzed what people liked and disliked in the original Wii game. For instance, most people enjoyed the unique phase switching gameplay, because it’s something you have in no other racing game.
So we build on that but tried to make it more streamlined and more fun to use. Something most people disliked was the brutal difficulty in higher leagues, because the Ai was simply too perfect. We made sure that the Ai behaves more ‘human’ this time.
Update: Bumped to the top! Shin’en has shared a third screenshot:
