1.- The 2012 E3 Expo is right around the corner, and fans from all over the world can look forward to accessing the latest Nintendo news right from the comfort of their homes. Nintendo will be using a mix of online, broadcast and social platforms to provide a steady stream of breaking news and announcements during the video game industry’s biggest annual trade show, taking place June 5-7 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
“We don’t want anyone to miss the energy and excitement of this year’s E3 Expo. “By offering different ways to tune in and follow all the Nintendo news, we aim to make fans all over the world feel like they’re right there with us at the show.”
- Cindy Gordon, Nintendo of America’s vice president of Corporate Affairs
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow producer David Cox and director Enric Alvare are apparently busy developing Castlevania: Mirror Of Faith for the Nintendo 3DS. The site thatpublished the rumour claims that the development team will show off the game at E3.
“The Wii U is a next-generation system. It hasn’t even come out yet and we’ve had our 360s and PS3s for a while now so it’s natural that it’s a very powerful system. Now, it’s up to Nintendo to talk about their system and they haven’t revealed all of their details yet, but so far we’re thrilled with it. It’s pretty clear to us that the best-looking console version of Aliens: Colonial Marines is going to be on the Wii U”.
“We have to be careful, we don’t want to have completely different games. The game experience, the campaign, the competitive game… it is the same game on each platform so if you love the 360 you’re fine, you’re going to get the game experience. Now, the Wii U is a more powerful machine so if you’re one of those early adopter types and you’ve got the disposable income to buy a new console right now, maybe that’s something you want to look at for this game.”
“It does have the added advantage of this new controller, and that gives us some interface options that are just not possible on the other platforms. The most obvious one of course is a motion tracker. So, like, I’m playing the game and maybe I’m in one of those suspenseful sections, and all of a sudden… WAWUM, WAWUM, and I realise the sound is coming from the controller. And I look down and it’s a motion tracker in my hand, in the actual controller. And it’s motion-sensitive too so I can scan the room by moving the controller. It’s pretty cool and that’s just one of the many uses of this device.”
He added: “I’ll tell you what’s kinda cool too. When I’m playing competitively, sometimes I like to look at the score when I’m playing but I hate having to cover the screen with an overlay. Well guess what? I can look down at the Wii U screen and if I want to keep the score there or whatever and just have a glance I can keep it down there and not have to worry about overlays or anything like that, and that’s kinda neat.”
2.- A source close to UK trade publication MCV has told the publication that the recentlyleaked Wii U controller will feature clickable analogue sticks. The revised controller – which was revealed by a QA tester at Traveller’s Tales, is apparently based on an older design which has been given the go-ahead due to developer feedback.
