Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Videos | 0 comments
There are plenty of Monster Hunter X updates to go around. Capcom has shared some official updates, coverage has leaked from this week’s Famitsu, and new videos have surfaced.
First up, Capcom is once again teaming up with Universal Studios Japan. Starting on January 15, players can obtain special equipment and guild cards. There’s also the collaboration quest players can acquire.
Capcom also shared a video of another Monster Hunter X 3DS theme. This will be available at launch next week for 200 yen.
As for Famitsu’s coverage, we now know of the Vicious mode for monsters. They’re referred to similarly as Frenzied monsters from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and we know that in this state, creatures have stronger attacks and are covered by black smoke. Attacking them allows your Hunter Skills gauge to increase more quickly, and taking them down provides players with armor and weapons.
We’ll close things out with a few different videos. Continuing on below for the latest gameplay, and visit Capcom’s YouTube channel for a bunch of commercials (and making of videos).

Disney Magical World 2 sold through 35% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
A few days ago, Media Create reported that Disney Magical World 2 sold around 74,000 units in its first week in Japan. The sales tracker didn’t provide any additional information about the game’s performance, though Dengeki does offer insight of its own.
Dengeki’s sales number is pretty close to Media Create at 78,500 units (with hardware bundles included). The previous game, which launched in August 2013, sold 107,000 copies at launch. Dengeki also says that Disney Magical World 2 sold through 35 percent of its initial shipment.
While the game may seem to be off to a sluggish start, the previous entry was an evergreen title that eventually became a super hit, so there is hope that this one will see growth in the future as well. For reference, the first Disney Magical World’s sales have exceeded 500,000 units sold.
