Huge New Details Announced For Nintendo’s 3DS!

0

Over in Tokyo, Japan, Nintendo held a press conference just a bit ago to explain some of the features of the Nintendo 3DS. A source from a 3DS fan site who is at the conference has been blogging since the start and this is what we have learned so far:

  • The 3DS will be launching with a brand new Virtual Console. Game Boy & Game Boy Advance titles will be available as well through this new Virtual Console.
  • Miis are confirmed! You can use the 3DS’s camera to take a picture of yourself and the unit will automatically create your Mii.
  • A new tag mode will also let players exchange Mii information and certain game data without cartridges.
  • The official price of the Nintendo 3DS is ¥25000 ($298 US), Nintendo did not release the price for the U.S. or any other regions at the moment.
  • Japan Release date is set at Feb. 26th and The U.S. will be seeing a launch in March.
  • The 3DS will have a cradle allowing faster internet connections and downloads.

    Nintendo has quite a blockbuster system on their hands here and a lot of questions are still yet to be answered, but I would expect Nintendo of America to make an announcement very soon on all of these new features and pricing as well as an official date for the rest of the world. We will bring you more news as we hear it so keep checking back on this developing story.

  • New Trailer for Kirby’s Epic Yarn Shows Off New Features & Returning Characters…

    As a huge Kirby fan I have been following Kirby’s Epic Yarn very closely. The game is looking great so far and a new overview trailer is now online. The trailer is in Japanese, but that doesn’t mean you can’t easily spot some new interesting features in the game as well as some old foes that will be making a comeback in Kirby’s latest adventure.

    One of the features in this trailer seems to be a mode which lets you decorate Kirby’s house with special unlockable items obtained in the main game. I am not sure how exactly this will play out but this feature alone could add a bit more depth to the overall game. When I seen some of the familiar faces of the series though is when I got even more nostalgic as it is now confirmed that Kracko, Whispy Woods (who was already featured in other trailers), and DeDeDe will all be featured as cloth/yarn enemies in the title.

    Check out the full 3+ minute trailer below and we will keep you updated with even more information about Kirby’s Epic Yarn as we get closer to the Oct. 17th release date.

    Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team’s Demo Available Now on the PSN!

    As a fan of the Dragonball series and a huge fan of the Tenkaichi titles that were released, Namco-Bandai’s latest PSP entry Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team is definitely on my radar. Here is a snippet of the press release to fill you in on some of the features and modes included in the title:

    For the first time ever Dragon Ball Z fans can enter into high-impact two vs. two combat in Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team for the PSP system. Play solo or team up via Ad Hoc mode to tackle memorable battles in a variety of single player and multiplayer modes, including Dragon Walker, Battle 100, and Survival Mode. Dragon Walker Mode takes fans through the entire epic Dragon Ball Z story arc from the Saiyan saga to the Majin Buu saga. Battle 100 Mode tasks players to relive the most epic encounters and newly created situations from the Dragon Ball Z world in ever increasingly difficult situations. With more than 70 playable and deeply customizable characters, multiple modes, and Ad Hoc Party gameplay, Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team is chock full of gameplay for your portable PSP system

    The demo is now available for download via the PSN and features two selectable stages and six featured characters, including Goku, Vegeta, Picollo, Krillin, Android 19, and Dr. Gero. With all the content in the demo alone should hold over any DBZ fan until the October 19th release of Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team.

    Resistance 3 screenshots possibly leaked by accident

    Looks like there may have been a little miscommunication within Insomniac or within Sony because there has been a leak of various artworks and screenshots from an account on Flickr which have been linked to Resistance 3 and is a sneak peak into the game itself. The Flickr user “1337guyzorz2” was the account in which each of the screenshots was located at, but mysteriously now the account is no longer active and said screenshots have been removed from Flickr entirely. Lucky for you though we have them.

    We see what appears to be a new protagonist, where the screens are naming him Capelli; otherwise known as Joseph Evan Capelli from the squad in Resistance 2. Plus there may even be the inclusion of Susan Farley, the pseudo-sister of Nathan Hale from Resistance 2. These two characters appear to be possible playable characters; but there has been no official word from Insomniac or Sony, and with the shut down of the Flickr account there is more to this story than meets the eye.

    Comic Jumper Characters’ Twitter feed

    0

    Comic Jumper Releases next week as part of the Game Feast promotion on the Xbox Live Arcade. Tomorrow Hydrophobia release as the first title, and you can check out the review here. (Shameless Plug)

    Back to the Comic Jumper News you came to see

    The guys at Microsoft are extremely excited about the release of Comic Jumper, but Twisted Pixel is even more excited(by 100x) because it is there game after all. They have set up a twitter feed for many of the characters. You can check it out here: http://twitter.com/mrwilford/comic-jumper-characters. It is awesome to read the characters interacting with each other and many of them are really funny.

    Also, if you are still unsure on whether or not you are going to buy this game; you can expect a review of it from us on Monday October 4th.

    Undead Nightmare pack teased for Red Dead Redemption

    With a name of Red Dead Redemption, you know it was only a matter of time until that middle word makes a change. With the teasing of this new DLC pack, the game should be called Red Undead Redemption…. Not quite the same ring to it though huh?

    Well as it turns out the poster above is for the Undead Nightmare DLC pack which will be receiving a full showcase of media tomorrow but is getting a small taste today. Rockstar themselves have said that the zombie there above is John Marston; so it’s curious to see if our favorite hero will rise from the grave to take his revenge upon the living, or if he has just risen to put even more undead to rest once again.

    There is no set date for this DLC, but as one may expect with zombies and the undead, it has been hinted to be released the same week of Halloween for both the PS3 and 360. We’ll have more tomorrow as more media is released by Rockstar.

    Castlevania: Lords of shadow trailer released; get comfortable

    If you want an in-depth look into Castlevania: Lords of Shadow you can sit down and get nice and comfy because we have an 11 minute trailer right here for the game. Inside of the trailer we will see many new things that have been changed for this game, and also spoils very large parts so if you are worried about spoiling parts of the plot for yourself then watch at your own caution.

    With the game hitting shelves next week on October 5th, Konami isn’t sparing any punches and even has Jason Isaacs narrating the video for us. So if you get a feeling that he sounds familiar, his most famous role is Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter movies.

    Monster Hunter Tri – bundle restock

    For those of you who haven’t been witness to the greatness that is the Monster Hunter franchise or simply haven’t been able to get your hands on the game yet, Capcom has announced that the bundle, a copy of Monster Hunter Tri with a classic controller pro (by far the best way to play this game, as it has pretty sophisticated controls) is back in stock.  Not only that, but with a cheaper price tag of only $50, or even $40 at Amazon!  For those astute bargain hunters out there, a classic controller pro goes for $20, the game can run from $30 to $50, that’s quite the savings.

    This bundle should be back in stock right now at Gamestop, Amazon and Best Buy.  If you missed the opportunity to get this thrifty bundle (which almost immediately sold out during release), now’s your chance to get it again.  If you already have the game, try convincing a friend to pick it up, it’s no secret that Monster Hunter is best played with a friend.

    Minecraft. Have you heard of it? If you have, it’s probably been from some blog post showing off some crazy structure someone built in the game. This time, the structure is jaw-dropping. I don’t want to ruin the surprise so I’ll let the video speak for itself.
