During the latest Japanese Nintendo Direct, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata talked to Brain Age supervisor Dr. Ryuta Kawashima about Demon Training – a Brain Age sequel for the Nintendo 3DS. A demo of the game, which is shown in the video above, was released (in Japan) during the presentation.
Unlike the first two Brain Age games for the Nintendo DS, you hold the 3DS in its upright position – while playing Demon Training – in order to make use of the top screen’s 3D effect. You can watch the full Demon Training presentation on the newly announced Nintendo Direct Channel.
Skip to the 8-minute mark to see Dr. Kawashima transforming into a demon.
The latest Pokémon games are selling well in Japan, and a developer wants some the franchise’s success by releasing Little Masters – another game that tries tomimic Pokémon, without actually featuring any of Nintendo’s pocket monsters. The Pokémon clone, if approved, will soon be released on the App Store. Based on the images shown above, Little Masters looks strikingly similar to the core Pokémon games. Earlier this year, Apple approved a Pokémon game, which turned out to be a complete scam – will Little Masters be given an OK?
According to Harada, while the overall game mechanics will remain the same, some “Nintendo-like” modes will be included in the Wii U version. For example, like in the picture above, Heihachi Mishima ate a mega mushroom, which was introduced in New Super Mario Bros., and got bigger.
Will the Wii-U version have any distinctly different modes to the 360 and PS3 versions?
“Well, because of the controller, obviously there are going to be a few features that are more convenient because you can control them directly from the interface. But it’s not like the overall game mechanics are going to change that drastically. There are going to be some modes that will be interesting, because they are very Nintendo like. Some of this was shown at E3, where a mushroom drops down and Heihachi eats it and gets bigger. You know Nintendo fans hearing and seeing that just exploded with excitement. The things that we can do because it is Nintendo are things people will be very excited about, but we can’t go into it any further. That being said though, a lot of the online modes and customisation on the 360 and PS3 will be geared towards the core audience a little bit more.”
