Capcom to make a 3DS game in Japan using train ridership data
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 7 Comments
Nikkei reports that, in conjunction with East Japan Marketing & Communications, Capcom will be making a game for Nintendo’s handheld in Japan “that draw on players’ train ridership and other data captured from transit smart cards.”
A system is already in place which uses “Sony’s FeliCa contactless smart card technology to read transit card data into the 3DS.” East Japan Railway’s Suica and West Japan Railway’s Icoca are among ten smartcard systems that are compatible. Ridership data such as station entries is mainly used, though personal information is not stored.
Nikkei further reports that “Capcom aims to use transit data to enhance gamers’ experience, for example by rewarding players visiting certain stations with special items.” One social game is already on the way that features over 9,000 stations in Japan.

RPG Maker Fes announced for 3DS
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
The preview images for this week’s issue of Famitsu revealed something quite interesting – namely, the announcement of RPG Maker Fes for Nintendo 3DS.
We will have to wait for more details until we get our hands on proper scans of this week’s issue tomorrow, but judging from the small preview images, this is looking like a classic entry in the RPG Maker series. In case you’re not familiar with it, the RPG Maker series allows you to, well, make your own RPGs, even if you have no programming or game design experience. While the series has mostly been on PC, there were also a few console and handheld versions, including one for Nintendo DS.
We have no details on a release date at the moment, and there’s no word on a Western release yet.
