GameStop taking Dragon Ball: Fusions pre-orders, localization essentially confirmed
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 6 Comments
Dragon Ball: Fusions might be Bandai Namco’s worst-kept secret at the moment. Even though it was largely thought that the game would be heading west following a leak from a classification in Brazil, extremely strong evidence has appeared which further backs up that initial finding.
GameStop stores are now taking pre-orders for Dragon Ball: Fusions under the SKU 133501. It looks to be a $30 game, similar to that of last year’s Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden. If we weren’t getting Fusions in North America (and Europe), it probably wouldn’t be in GameStop’s system – and up for pre-order.
Bandai Namco may have an official announcement to make about Dragon Ball: Fusions in the coming days.

Chase: Cold Case Investigations, from Hotel Dusk’s director, launches October 13 in the west
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 6 Comments
Chase: Cold Case Investigations ~Distant Memories~ will launch in both North America and Europe on October 13, Aksys Games and Arc System Works announced today. Pricing is set at $5.99.
The adventure mystery game comes from the mind of Taisuke Kanasaki, director of Nintendo’s Hotel Dusk: Room 215. It follows the story of two detectives “whose sense of justice and raw instinct drive them to seek the truth.” Players will be asked to put their sleuthing skills to the test and re-investigate old crime scenes and solve cold cases by searching for clues and interrogating perpetrators.
Here’s a rundown of features:

Corpse Party 3DS confirmed for Europe
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
A few months ago, Corpse Party 3DS was announced by XSEED for localization. In North America, the game should be out sometime within the next month or so. We hadn’t heard about anything for Europe, though that has now changed.
A listing on the eShop reveals that Corpse Party is in fact planned for PAL regions. Additionally, it’ll apparently be launching on October 26 in Europe – meaning we can probably expect it around the same time in North America. That date might be slightly off since games don’t usually launch for Nintendo platforms digitally on Wednesdays, but… we’ll see.
As for the price, it’s €29.99, and XSEED will apparently be publishing (rather than Marvelous).

Update 4: And it’s back up. Use this link.
Update 3: And it looks to have already sold out on Amazon!
Update 2: This is now live on Amazon.
Update: Bumped to the top. You can now pre-order the Pokemon Sun/Moon Solgaleo Lunala Black Edition New 3DS XL at GameStop.
Original (9/13): Nintendo has announced a special New 3DS XL system inspired by Pokemon Sun/Moon for North America. On October 28, fans will be able to purchase the new design for $199.99. Neither of the new Pokemon games will be pre-installed, meaning you’ll need to pick up the games separately.
Nintendo of America’s senior VP of sales and marketing Doug Bowser said of today’s news:
“This year marks the 20th anniversary of the beloved Pokémon series and people have never been talking about Pokémon more. Playing Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon on this new Pokémon system is the best way for fans to show their love for this iconic series.”
Pokemon Sun/Moon both launch on November 18. A Pokemon Sun/Moon Dual Pack will also be available at retailers (separate from the Amazon-exclusive steelbook edition).
