I don't think anyone posted this: 1-Up has a bit with video of Toshio Iwai's unreleased Super Famicom game Sound Fantasy! Seems wonderfully gamey, and powerful at the same time. And unlike the game I imagined it, from the few descriptions I read when it was first announced.

God I cannot imagine having fun with that game with a shitty d-pad

WIKIPEDIA!


Wikipedia would also tell you that it was designed for the SNES mouse, and was intended to be packaged with it.

Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon (the upcoming non-Sandlot one) will have local split-screen co-op! Also 300 weapons, whatever that means.
split screen co-op and lots and lots of weapons are both thing that are essential to edf, so this is a good sign, at least


The video looks a shade sparse, in line with what Sketch wrote on Hardcore Gaming 101, referencing a thread at NTSC-UK. I made the point (not sure if the comment's approved yet) that an EDF game would be a hard thing to fuck up, and that I'd really like to see a level editor in there--like Bangaio Spirits. I think the game may benefit from a smaller, more considered. set of weapons, actually. I think I only use three, or four, weapons in EDF 2 (counting upgrades to weapons not as separate weapons), so ten-twenty should be more than enough.

edit: Why I wanted to post was to say that lots of enemies is far more essential to an EDF game than lots of weapons. I guess that train of thought found a junction point somewhere in there.

it'd be kind of neat if there is no chat or message interaction with anyone at all. just observing their movements.


I'm very much hoping for this too. Also that someone will give me a PS3, Journey, Demon's Souls, and Last Guardian.

Maybe some simple hand, and body gestures.

Konami is buying Hudson Soft and replacing the CEO this April.
do hudson soft still make games, other than a bomberman whenever a new console gets released?


Kororinpa! And I think they still do the Mario Party games. But, yeah, mostly they just do versions Bomberman for whatever platform they can, sometimes Star Soldier, and sometimes Tengai Makyo?

nintendo made a bizarre and somewhat cryptic statement regarding 3ds region lock: http://www.vg247.com/2011/01/18/nintendo-confirms-3ds-region-lock/

I predict a hardware region lock like in the SNES/N64 days. Where anyone with any tool can get around it. Won't change the online store though.

-Weş


It'd be a fair bit trickier tinkering with a little DS slot.

That announcement doesn't seem cryptic to me at all :/ Their reasons sound like a crock: as if all PAL areas have the same videogame related laws :/

I can't even explain how excited I got when I found out about this yesterday.


Did you read anything about how big projects can be?

That explains their mysterious hire of a pixel artist a while ago, anyway.


Weren't they hired because the person who was working on textures in Minecraft left (I'm going on memory here, though)? Notch seems to have not much to do with it, by the way.

If Nintendo delivers a Wii 2 with a better videocard and more system RAM than PS3 and 360 within the next year, that might be a thing.


for a couple of years, until the PS4 and MSnext come out.

*so maybe its the new Dreamcast


My first thoughts, too.
