– Once again, Sherlock Holmes will appear
– Eight-year-old M.D. and literary girl Iris Watson will also appear

– Detective and courtroom sections like previous games
– 3D characters and 3D background this time around
– The actual depth of the background will be used, meaning, the character can actually go into the background

No surprises here, today Sakurai has another pair of 3DS screenshots again focusing on more menus:

And here’s the results screen. It shows what you gained in each stage, but you won’t be rewarded until you clear it all. If you mess up in the middle, you can lose some of them too. The fighter icons are special attacks, and icons like the shield are equipment. The icons that say Mii on them are hats and clothes for Mii characters. Icons that show characters on a stand are trophies, of course, and the coins are gold you earned.

During Nintendo’s most recent shareholders meeting in July, Shigeru Miyamoto made a few comments about the games on display at E3.

“This year, the majority of what the other developers exhibited was bloody shooter software that was mainly set in violent surroundings or, in a different sense, realistic and cool worlds,” Miyamoto said at the time. “Because so many software developers are competing in that category, it seemed like most of the titles at the show were of that kind.”

In this month’s issue of EDGE, Miyamoto was asked to follow up on his comments. He stated, “I have not been fully satisfied with the inspirations that I have or that other people in the industry have in general.” Miyamoto also mentioned that industry trends are emphasized over “the creator’s individuality and uniqueness”, and that “the industry has a long way to go.”

Check out all of Miyamoto’s comments below – they’re quite interesting to say the least!

A new clip from Bayonetta 2’s Tag Climax mode can be found above. You’ll also find a summary of information below, which includes a few bits about the Fox McCloud costume.

Fox McCloud costume

– Game refers to it as Star Mercenary
– If you select the guns, the weapons change into Arwing-shaped blasters
– Slash with them
– If you perform a combo, the classic Star Fox shooting sound emits
– Lock-on cursor is the one from Star Fox

Tag Climax

– Cooperative competitive mode
– Each character works together to defeat hordes of enemies while also striving to get the most points
– Each match has 6 missions
– The ones that you can choose are unlocked throughout the game
– These are formed from previous encounters in the story mode and put on a new spin on them to make a bit more challenging
– Choose the amount of Halos to bet beforehand
– Bet more Halos to increase the chaotic nature of the battle
– If the other person falls down and you don’t revive your opponent in 15 seconds, you both lose automatically
– All the Halos you earned in previous missions are worthless and you have to start over
– Play with friends or random opponents
– If you don’t have many online friends, you are kind of forced to play it against the computer
– Can’t play locally
