Well that sure didn’t take too long. Yesterday we posted that Crunchyroll would be streaming Love Live! School Idol Project’s second season but we also mentioned how last year when the first season was licensed for streaming on Crunchyroll, that NIS America also revealed that they had picked up the rights to release the series in North America.
At the time we wondered whether or not NIS America would pick up Love Live! Season Two as they have yet to release the first season or announce a release date as of yet, but it looks like we didn’t have to wait long for that announcement. Today the company has announced that they have licensed the second season of Love Live! and just like the first season, they are planning on giving the anime a home release sometime in the future.
Earlier this year Sentai Filmworks announced that they were planning on releasing a number of anime titles in May this year, one of which was an anime many fans have been waiting for, Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions!. However when they announced that they were planning on releasing the first season as a subtitle only release, these fans were rather angry.
As such, Sentai has been listening to their fans and have just announced that they will be releasing an English dubbed version of Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions! Season 1 sometime later this year. This will be a limited edition numbered box set that will be released on both Blu-ray and DVD, though the exact release date has not been announced at this time. As for the subtitle only DVD release, it is still set for May 27th.
With Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars set to be released next week in North America, Atlus has chosen to release a funny video showing how the game will look on store shelves with the all launch copies coming with the game’s soundtrack.
You can check out the full unboxing below and although it is fairly short, it is worth checking out just for the hell of it. The game is currently set to be released next week on April 15th in North America and if you happen to be on the fence about the game, a demo is currently available to download on both platforms.
Today Telltale Games has released the third of five episodes planned for The Wolf Among Us. This episode is titled ‘A Crooked Mile‘ and to commemorate the episode’s release they have released a new trailer highlighting the events of the episode and said trailer can be found below.
In this episode players are running out of time and Bigby is only a few steps behind the prime suspect of a horrific crime scene, but he is not the only one as other forces in Fabletown are moving to protect their own interests. With the clock ticking and every decision affecting things, players must try and get closer to catching this brutal killer.
LEGO games are sort of like marshmallows. Sweet, good in moderation, and surprisingly filling. Today, WB Games delivered a marshmallow of their own with the launch trailer of LEGO The Hobbit, the brand new title that allows players to relive the telling of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug.
As always, the charm is high with this one, and fans of the two films will be happy to know that there will be further installments down the way as the trilogy wraps. For now however, you can pick up LEGO The Hobbit in stores for just about every console under the sun as of today. Watch the clip down below.
A few weeks ago, as part of their February solicitations, Titan Comics announced a new book from Greg Broadmore; Dr. Grordbort Presents: Triumph. Well now we have a closer look at the book, including the full synopsis, a sweet new trailer, and a look at a few pages. So sit down and check out your first look at Dr. Grordbort Presents: Triumph.
Since the first word was inscribed onto parchment, man has searched for tomes that lift the lid on the inner machinations of the human condition and reveal truths about humanity and its place in the universe – there are books that teach, books that inspire and books that offer a glimpse into our very souls. Triumph, on the other hand, is full of violence, bad language, interplanetary racism and a little sprinkling of smut… but you get what you pay for.
So although we have literally no information about the plot or characters of the book, we already know that it is filled with violent, swearing, racism and sex… What more could you ask for! For a closer look, check out the gallery of pages below and then jump down to check out the trailer. Dr. Grordbort Presents: Triumph will be available online and through your local comic book store April 15th, so be sure to check it out and be sure to stay tuned to Capsule Computers for all the Titan Comics news as it becomes available.

Super Smash Bros. is without a doubt, Nintendo‘s big-gun for 2014. Coming out on both the 3DS and Wii U means that gamers everywhere will be picking up a Nintendo device, booting up and throwing down with the infamous roster of characters. As if hype wasn’t already at fever pitch, today’s Nintendo Direct Presentation was 45 minutes of uninterrupted awesomeness with a tonne of new information being dished out. So much info was given out, that we have compiled it all into an easy to read list! So enjoy:
The 3DS version of the game will be released this Winter (in Australia)
The 3DS version will run at a lock 60fps, even when in 3d. Some assist trophies will only run at 30fps, but characters will stick to the steady 60.
Online play will have two modes – “For Glory,” and “For Fun.” Basically ranked and unranked matches
For Fun mode will randomly pick stages (except for Final Destination), all items will have a chance to appear, and the only data recorded will be your number of victories.
For Glory is 1v1 only, and places players on the Final Destination stage with no items. Additionally, both wins and losses will be recorded.
When playing online, there will be certain penalties imposed for unsportsmanlike conduct. Things such as constantly dropping out, or unfair targeting of a particular player will cause your overall rank to go down, making it harder to find matches.
Stages will differ between versions, but some series staples (like Battlefield, or Final Destination) will appear on both, with visual differences between the two.
On the 3DS version, each stage will have 2 different music tracks.
On the Wii U version, each stage has an enormous library of music to pick from.
There will be new items, assist trophies and Pokemon. One new item; The Masterball will only summon rare and legendary pokemon. The original Pokeball returns, and has pokemon like Meowth and Staryu (that first appeared in the original Smash Bros.) all the way to Fennekin.
There will be no transformation characters. This means that Shiek and Zero Suit Samus are now their own character, separate from Zelda and Samus.
Zero Suit Samus has undergone a serious redesign, including rocket-boots and a brand new character model
The game has been rebalanced. All characters have had tweaks to their moveset, and many Final Smash attacks have been altered.
Kirby now summons a giant sword as his Final Smash
Lucario’s Final Smash is MegaEvolving into MegaLucario
Pit now uses the Three Sacred Treasures for his final Smash
Megaman summons other iterations of himself from across space and time such as(Megaman X, Megaman.Exe, etc)
Some stages and areas will have Boss enemies. The Dr. Wily Stage will have the Yellow Demon, who when defeated will cause a massive explosion on-screen (similar to the Smart Bomb item).
Ridley was also teased to be a boss character on the Pyrosphere stage
Smash Run – a new 3DS exclusive mode that takes inspiration from Subspace Emissary and puts up to 4 players on a massive interlocking stage where they will defeat enemies like Shy Guys and Kremlings to earn bonuses for the upcoming battle. Speed, Strength etc can all get boosted this way depending on what items players pick up.
Each stage has a unique “Final Destination,” version.
You will be able to customise certain moves of your characters for use in local multiplayer. For example; Mario’s fireball can be made smaller and faster, or bigger and slower, depending on how you want to play.
Three new characters were announced for the game, bringing the current roster count up to 29:
Yoshi is making a return, and his movement style and model have been brought more up to par with his current designs.
Charizardis returning, without the Pokemon Trainer to command him.
Charizard MegaEvolves into MegaCharizard X as his Final Smash.
Greninja is joining the battle, and will use his speed and agility to overwhelm the competition.

Called Disney Infinity 2.0 Edition, the game looks to be including an array of Marvel superheroes (since Disney owns Marvel Entertainment). As a massive fan of Disney Infinity, and comic books, I could not be any more excited for this to happen! Check out the teaser trailer:
