Ken Sugimori has played a very prominent role in the Pokemon series. He not only drew all of the original 151 Pokemon personally, but has also contributed to the movies, trading cards, and video games.

Now, while Sugimori is generally associated with Pokemon, he has worked with other companies and IPs. His latest creation? The boxart for SEGA 3D Reprint Archives. You can definitely see his style sprinkled throughout the image!

Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse will receive an update in the future to take advantage of the New 3DS, WayForward has revealed.

Speaking with Siliconera, director Matt Bozon said:

“We’re really excited about the New 3DS! We have an update for Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse already underway, which will add a ‘quick select’ control scheme, as well as other minor improvements to the game. Look for that to arrive closer to the launch of the New 3DS in the US.”

Bozon did not say what sort of “minor improvements” will be included. However, it’s already been confirmed that Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse will run at 60 frames per second on a regular 3DS with stereoscopic 3D turned on.
