Do you enjoy the delicacy of a nice, tasty banjo? Well, these vegetarian piranhas in Sauce Digital’s upcoming iPhone/iPad title Banjo Piranha do. In this little game, player’s take control of the fish by diving deep and then jumping high in the air to gobble up as many banjos as possible. I want to say I am reminded a bit of Angry Birds by the concept alone, but with an emphasis on collecting rather than destroying.

Features Include:

• Universal app for iPhone and iPad
• Gorgeous retina graphics
• Fab audio and great music
• 50+ stages of increasing difficulty
• Angry enemy piranhas
• Personal bests saved for; score, stages completed, banjos collected, biggest air and longest survival.

You can check out the southern-instrument eating fish in the trailer down below, and prepare yourself, as Banjo Piranha launches in Early September in the iTunes store.

XAM’D Lost Memories UK release cancelled

That’s right, the Manga UK Blu-Ray release of XAM’D: Lost Memories has been cancelled after only having just released throughout the country. Why would Manga UK do such a thing, you ask? Well the release didn’t sell well to say the least. As a matter of fact, it sold only roughly 100 copies. Yes, only 100, in the entire country.

Now you may note the unusually high cost of anime in the UK as a part of the problem. You may be right, but regardless Manga UK is a company that needs to make money and it is really not worth investing any more time into something that only sold roughly 100 copies.

Those of you who are hungering for 3DS Virtual Console titles can celebrate, as it looks like the Ghosts ‘n Goblins spinoff, Gargoyle’s Quest, will be headed to the eShop sometime soon. Japan have already received the Game Boy classic, but it has now been rated by the Australian Classification’s board which of course means a release for Gargoyle’s Quest is now inevitable.

Firebrand, who is the main character of the game will also be featured in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 when it releases later this year. Nothing has been mentioned about a U.S. release as of yet, but I would imagine a rating (or date) should be emerging soon enough. Stay tuned, as once an official date is revealed for Gargoyle’s Quest, we will be sure bring you the news here.

Nintendo are pulling out their proud parent card for the 3DS, and have now released two new commercials displaying the newly slashed price and the current and upcoming first party line-up that new users can expect. Yes, it seems that a whole new marketing campaign is being launched for the handheld, which is a good thing considering all of the massive changes as of late.

You can check out both new trailers below, but don’t expect a whole lot of new footage, as these clips mainly show off reviews for the system as well as clips from Star Fox 64 3D, Super Mario 3D Land, and Mario Kart 7.

Panty shots, bouncing bosoms and paper clothing will make their return in the upcoming Ikkitousen OVA series. The new OVA is to be titled Ikkitousen Shuugaku Toushi Keppuuroku and will feature all the fan-service you’d expect from a Ikkitousen anime.

Along side the announcement of the OVA which will make it’s debut this Fall 2011 anime season, was a very NSFW trailer.

If you were worried that the Ikkitousen OVA may not be able to keep up with it’s standard of extreme fan-service that it has set, give the trailer a quick playthrough. Needless to say, there is more animated flesh on show then the hentai section of your local Gametraders store.
