| Hideki Kamiya Was "A Shoulder To Lean On" During Astral Chain's Development, Says Director Posted: 25 Jan 2021 01:00 AM PST "I don't think I've ever felt a sense of distress like that before". Takahisa Taura has worked on plenty of amazing video games, including Madworld, The Wonderful 101 and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, but Astral Chain was his first time working as a director – and he's been speaking to Famitsu about the experience (thanks, Nintendo Everything). It's natural to have nerves on your first big project, but Taura points out that Hideki Kamiya was on hand to offer advise and steady the ship when development waters got a little choppy (Yoko Taro from Square Enix, who worked with Taura on NieR: Automata, was also part of the interview): Read the full article on nintendolife.com  |
| Video: 7 Legacy Sonic Games That Were Never Rereleased Posted: 24 Jan 2021 12:30 PM PST When you run fast sometimes you outrun a second chance. There was a time where Sega made a significant effort to preserve their legacy titles which would allowed new fans to experience games even if they're predate by them. Fast forward to modern day and the company only seems interested in rereleasing Sonic 1 & 2 on every platform imaginable (not the cool widescreen port though). We've gone multiple console generations without proper preservation for this franchise and some titles such as the Neo Geo Pocket Color's Sonic Pocket Adventure never received a rerelease of any kind. That's what we want to look at today - Sonic titles that are at least 15 years old and are locked on their original hardware. Read the full article on nintendolife.com  |
| Feature: Super Mario And Friends - A History Of Mainline Mario Multiplayer Posted: 24 Jan 2021 10:00 AM PST We look back on the plumber's co-op exploits. If you're reading this, it's a safe bet to assume you've hung out with Mario and his pals at least once in your life. Whether you were revving up karts, hitting the tennis courts for a few sets, or attending those cruel parties where every coin and star you had was stolen (no, I'm not mad), Mario's non-platforming multiplayer shenanigans need little introduction. The Mushroom Kingdom crew has seen more adventures than most across a variety of disciplines, and we've often been able to bring our friends along for the ride. Yet, despite Mario's rich multiplayer history, the main Super Mario games have historically been a mixed bag in this department. Mario's 2D adventures gained co-op consistency in the last decade, but it wasn't until Super Mario 3D World that 3D entries truly brought multiplayer to life. Offering four-player local co-op back on the Wii U, it's arguably Super Mario's multiplayer platforming peak, and with online being added to the Bowser's Fury Switch port, we'll potentially soon have our hands on the definitive package. We're less than a month away now from launch, and with that in mind — spin-offs aside — we've decided to take a look back the history of Super Mario's multiplayer...

| Posted: 24 Jan 2021 09:05 AM PST It rests with "Nintendo and Pokémon Co., Ltd.". One game that deserves some more love is the Bandai Namco developed Switch, Wii U and arcade title, Pokkén Tournament. It was well-received on all three occasions but since then fans of this unique fighter have been wondering if there'll be any future follow-ups. A Twitter follower of Katsuhiro Harada (the director of Tekken 7 and a producer on Pokkén) asked the industry icon if he would be open to returning for a sequel.

| Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Stealth Games Posted: 24 Jan 2021 06:00 AM PST "!". For all the gun-blazing, whip-cracking, all-out action and mayhem there is to enjoy in video games, sometimes a change of pace is needed. All that one-note violence can get boring, no? Why not eliminate that patrolling guard or spittle-covered demon in a more sophisticated manner; something more understated than a rocket launcher to the face? Fortunately, there's a wealth of stealth games on Switch for the gentil assassin; players who prefer their ultraviolence a tad more calculated and classy — just the thing for when all those Glory kills have lost their glory.

| Among Us Estimated To Have Sold 3.2 Million Copies On Switch In Launch Month Posted: 24 Jan 2021 05:00 AM PST That's a lot of imposters. Smash hit multiplayer game Among Us got a surprise release on the Nintendo Switch last December following an indie showcase and ever since it's been at the top of the eShop charts. It's only £3.89/$5.00 if you haven't already picked it up. According to SuperData, the game is estimated to have already sold a whopping 3.2 million copies on the Switch eShop in the same month and was also apparently the highest-earning version: Read the full article on nintendolife.com  |
| Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #76 - Final Fight 3 Posted: 24 Jan 2021 04:00 AM PST 'Final' my foot! Welcome once again to Box Art Brawl, our contest to find out which retro gaming cover is best from two or more global variants of the same game. Last time we enjoyed the silence of Resident Evil: Deadly Silence on the fifteenth anniversary of the DS port. Japan took just over one third of the vote — and Europe grabbed almost a fifth — but it was North America which broke the (deadly) silence with an exalted exclamation having topped our approval poll with 46%.

| Random: Morshu From Link: The Faces of Evil Has Been Turned Into A 3D Animation Posted: 24 Jan 2021 02:00 AM PST Welcome to 2021. Sometimes the power of technology can be rather scary and today might just be one of those days. A talented VFX artist, known on Twitter as @Hoolopee, has recreated the popular merchant / modern-day meme - Morshu from the 1993 Phillips CD-i game, Link: The Faces of Evil. The character's body in the below clip is a "heavily modified Wario torso" ripped from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, which apparently sped up the process. The rest of the character is modelled "by hand", and despite the joke of "RTX on" the whole thing has been animated in Blender, textured in Substance Painter and rendered in EEVEE.
