Following the company’s announcement of a new Nintendo 3DS, aptly named New Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo also announced that Xenoblade Chronicles will be released on the 3DS. But unfortunately the game will not work on old 3DS handhelds as it will require the New Nintendo 3DS’ stronger processor to run.
Iwata went on to say that there are also a number of other titles currently being developed for the New Nintendo 3DS. This means that some new Nintendo 3DS games will not work on your 3DS/3DSXL/2DS but only the New 3DS, meaning new New Nintendo 3DS exclusive games may be announced soon.
Today during their latest Nintendo Direct, Nintendo revealed that they are planning on releasing another new 3DS version and they have decided to call this one, and follow me on this, New Nintendo 3DS. The new iteration will feature bigger screens, colored face buttons, a stick that is more or less a tiny nub that will work similar to the C-stick on the GameCube, a better browser, extra shoulder buttons, and NFC to work with Nintendo’s Amiibos.
The CPU will also be getting a power up while downloading software will be sped up. It is also worth noting that the New Nintendo 3DS will make use of Micro-SD cards.
Currently New Nintendo 3DS is set for Japanese release on October 11th and will be priced at 16,000 yen for a standard version and 18,800 yen for the XL version. Nintendo went on to say that the handheld will not be released internationally in 2014 and that DS games will still work on the New Nintendo 3DS.
It has been many months since we heard any news about Capcom’s Deep Down. As such many people were growing concerned about the fate of this free-to-play online only RPG since the beta was originally set to launch in Japan earlier this year.
Well that all changed thanks to a new video released today by Capcom showcasing two of the teams working on the game as well as showing four different players fighting against some of the enemies in the game. You can check out the gameplay video below and be sure to keep an eye out for Deep Down’s beta to launch sometime in 2015, at least in Japan.
While rumored for many months thanks to the infamous Gematsu leak and then semi-confirmed with some leaked video footage, Nintendo has decided to officially unveil Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles as the latest addition to the Super Smash Bros. roster. Featuring his special sword the Monado heavily in his moveset, Shulk will be able to engage in five different modes to enhance/limit his abilities by using his neutral special attack. These modes are:
In keeping up with the recent alternate costume trend, Shulk can also be pictured in his swimming trunks attire in the latest batch of screenshots. A new stage in Guar Plains from Xenoblade Chronicles was also revealed in the trailer. The stage is very large and seems to move vertically, but for those disappointed by the news remember that each stage is receiving a Final Destination version if you’re not a fan of all the movement and gimmicks.
At the end of the trailer, Metal Face from Xenoblade makes a menacing appearance but it is not known how he will be incorporated into the game yet. Check out the reveal trailer and gallery below to see the newest newcomer in action. The 3DS version is now two weeks from release in Japan so keep checking back with Capsule Computers for a full roster list as soon as it becomes available.
I’m not sure whose idea it was to put a talking panda into a wasteland resembling like something from a video game, but I’d be happy to buy them a drink. The post-apocalyptic sci-fi western is hitting our very own ABC iview program on Saturday, September 20 and will make its international debut at Fantastic Fesy, Austin TX, September 18-25.
Wastelander Panda: Exile is a co-production between Madman and Epic Films centered around the humanoid panda Isaac, who is banished to the Wasteland after the violent death of a young girl, and sets out to find a “replacement” to reinstate his family into the Tribe of Legion. Check out the trailer further below to make visual sense of this madness.
“To be commissioned by ABC iview as a Web/TV Series and then to be selected for a film festival is very rewarding for all concerned”, producer, Nick Batzias said. Additionally, those interested can catch a sneak peek of the new show at Oz Comic-Con in Sydney, September 13-14. A graphic novel from Gestalt Publishing is also on the cards in the near future.
