The developers of Bayonetta 3 have opened up about the making of the game, and have discussed why the project took so long to wrap up.
PlatinumGames supervising director Hideki Kamiya, producer Yuji Nakao, director Yusuke Miyata, and Nintendo producer Makoto Okazaki spoke about this in a recent issue of Famitsu. The two indicated that things didn’t exactly go according to plan, but this was more due to the amount of content the team wanted to add. Nakao said it was never about being stuck.

Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News, Switch | 0 comments
Pokemon GO dataminers have uncovered what appears to be a brand new Pokemon. The creature has never been seen before, and there’s been no word on it officially thus far from The Pokemon Company.
Twitter account poke_miners came through with the news today. According to the fan page, the Pokemon was added with a file named “pmMystery”. It’s referred to as pm1080, which is assumed to be Pokemon number 1080. Right now it only has associated 3D assets, so there’s nothing in 2D form yet.
We know that unannounced information can be sensitive to some fans, so we’ve included the picture and tweet after the break.
