You may remember that a few Pokémon based 3DS eShop apps/games were going to be released in Japan sometime in the near future. Today it has been confirmed that these very same eShop apps/games are going to be made available in North America as well.

The two apps/games are called Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex 3D Pro. They will be made available later this fall which will place their release around the same time as Pokémon Black and White Version 2. The Pokémon Dream Radar will make use of the 3DS’ augmented reality system by allowing players to catch Pokémon in their own living room while the Pokédex 3D Pro is an upgraded version of the free Pokédex app which was released last year.

Unlike the free version, Pokédex 3D Pro will feature over 600 different Pokémon and a bunch of other information. This is good for those who have long-since filled up their free Pokédex and are looking for even more Pokémon to tide themselves over until Black and White Version 2 are released. Interestingly enough no price was announced for either of these apps yet, so expect to see a price announcement in the coming months.

Update: It appears that Australia will also be receiving these apps sometime in the Spring of 2012, though with Spring nearly over it will be interesting to see when it will actually be released.

South Park fans are going to have to wait a bit longer to play South Park’s next full retail title because today THQ announced that South Park: The Game is going to be delayed until the first quarter of 2013.

Originally meant to be released sometime in 2012, no reason for this delay was given at the time of the announcement. Just last week it was leaked out by Xbox.com that the South Park game’s official name was South Park: The Stick of Truth. With the current season of South Park on mid-season hiatus it seems that the best fans can do at the moment is enjoy some re-runs until the season starts back up later this year.

Over the past few days 343 Studios has been sending out pieces of a 32 part puzzle revolving around Halo 4. As time went on it was discovered by those intrepid enough to put the pieces together that the picture was going to eventually be the official box art of the game itself.

Unfortunately for Microsoft and 343 Studios, it only took a small altering of each image link to unlock every piece of the puzzle early. As such the full image was finally assembled and can be seen below in all of its glory. Those who wish to see the Halo 4 box art bigger only need to click the image.

“The Secret World” Second Beta Weekend, May 18th

The Secret World is proving continually popular and more interesting than Funcom’s previous Age of Conan MMO.  More players played, stayed longer, and returned than in the beta tests for Conan.  This means a lot as that’s more data to help improve and optimize The Secret World before its release.  With all this in-line Funcom is preparing for the next beta weekend, which is coming this weekend, May 18th to 20th.

Returning players get to keep their character from last weekend, meet new characters, complete new missions and follow new storylines in the game’s Kingsmouth area.  New players get their first taste at the MMO’s unique style of character development and explore what Kingsmouth has to offer.  While players can still ensure beta keys through pre-order, there are many more places and ways to get beta keys for this weekend from websites for Europe and North America.

The Secret World is definitely one of the most unique MMO’s in terms of both play and subject matter, so it’s easy to see why it’s succeeding in finding popularity, especially with its blending of multiple supernatural and conspiracy elements.  So, it’s really unfair to compare it to Age of Conan, where the major draw was mostly the IP itself.

Check out The Secret World‘s website for more information and a list of where to try for beta keys HERE.
