Pokemon Direct live stream (6/6/17)
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Switch, Videos | 25 Comments
E3 2017 is only a week away, but it already feels like the festivities have started. Today’s Pokemon Direct can be partially attributed to that since we should be getting some big news about the franchise very soon.
No live blog for this one due to how short it is, but you can watch the Pokemon Direct as it happens below in an hour from now (7 AM PT / 10 AM ET / 3 PM in the UK / 4 PM in Europe). Although it’ll only be eight minutes long, similar presentations focusing on the series have been equally short. We’ll put up any breaking news on the site right as it happens.

Super Nintendo World activity happening at Universal Studios Japan
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Images | 2 Comments
Update: Rather than photos of the actual Super Nintendo World, what we may have here instead is a stage of sorts being prepared for an upcoming event. One of the photos also appears to have the word “Grand” hidden in the back. In any case, these might not be construction photos.
Original: It was assumed that construction on Super Nintendo World was just starting a little over a month ago. That’s now official, with the first true photos emerging today. It’s obviously very early on, but construction images show Warp Pipes and Piranha Plants plus brick walls.
Thanks to the bunch of you that sent this in.

Fire Emblem dev has interest in featuring full voice acting again in the future
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 29 Comments
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia makes full use of voice acting. It’s true that past entries have had voice over before, but with the 3DS remake, characters are entirely voiced. This may not be a one time thing, as Intelligent Systems director Toshiyuki Kusakihara has expressed interest in bringing it back in the future.
Italian site Multiplayer.it asked Kusakihara if the full voice acting will return in the future. To that, he did in fact say that he hopes to bring it back in future releases.

The Alliance Alive devs on how the RPG is different from The Legend of Legacy, game features, more
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
The Alliance Alive is the next 3DS RPG from FuRyu following The Legend of Legacy. Famitsu spoke with director Masataka Matsuura and design lead Kyoji Koizumi as part of a very in-depth interview to talk more about the game.
Some people have said that The Alliance Alive was to be a spiritual successor to The Legend of Legacy, or that The Alliance Alive is a new RPG made based on the lessons learned from The Legend of Legacy. However, Matsuura says there is a bit of misunderstanding.
