New Code Of Princess Trailer

Code of Princess is shaping up to be one of the more impressive 3DS titles coming out this fall. The game blends side scrolling beat'em up action with RPG elements channeling a slick retro feel to the gameplay.  Code of Princess actually feels like a spiritual successor to the underrated Sega Saturn classic Guardian Heroes which is not by accident considering 2 of the developers worked on that gem. With the game set to come out in October, Atlus has released a new trailer showcasing game features and voice work. Enjoy!

La-Mulana Climbs To The Top Of The Worldwide Download Charts

With all the doomsayers basically trashing the Wii and Wii U every chance they get, it's nice to see the fans rally behind a really great Wii exclusive title. WiiWare hit La-Mulana has had a choppy ride coming out of Japan but with its recent worldwide release, the game has taken the top spot in the UK, Dutch, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and North American WiiWare download charts.

After playing this gem and reading the perfect 10/10 review on Nintendolife, it's not hard to see why everyone is so excited about this game. The worldwide publisher of the game, EnjoyUp Games is pretty stoked about the success as well posting on their Twitter account:

LA-MULANA Number 1 in USA!!!! AWESOMEEEE!!! YES!!! THANKS!!!

If you haven't gotten this game yet, spend the 1000 Wii Points and add this beauty to your collection. This game really is a love letter to Metroid Fans and action-adventure Gamer's and deserves a cozy spot on your Wii menu.

Resident Evil 2 Remake Possible With Fan Support?

A quote from current Resident Evil Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi is making the rounds on the internet and fueling speculation of a Resident Evil 2 remake.

"Just to lay all the cards on the table, that way there's no rumor-mongering or things like that, no, we are not working on a Resident Evil 2 remake as of now. But if the fans really clamor for it; if there's a groundswell of support for remaking that game, then I think that's something Capcom would take under consideration."

Before getting excited, one should keep in mind the fact that the stunning Resident Evil Remake on the Gamecube was helmed by series creator Shinji Mikami and he has had nothing to do with the series since his final survival horror masterpiece, Resident Evil 4 in 2005. This is largely responsible for the erratic and polarizing state of Resident Evil now. You need look no further than the upcoming Resident Evil 6 to see where a remake would go and depending on when you entered the series, that's either good or insanely bad for RE2. Personally, I feel that Capcom should leave the classic alone and allow The Darkside Chronicles to continue as the only retelling of the RE2 story. It did a good job of retelling the story with added multiplayer while leaving your memories of the original untouched, a fine balance for a title held in such high regard. What are your feelings on remaking RE2 with the current state of Capcom, should it happen and would you support it?

Possible Banjo-Tooie Spiritual Successor From Former RARE Team

It has recently been revealed that if RARE had not been sold to Microsoft and remained Nintendo exclusive, many of the key people at the company would have stayed which makes one wonder what could have been. It turns out that some of those former RARE developers are testing the waters to see if they could create a "spiritual successor" to Banjo-Tooie. This group has joined forces under the Twitter name Mingy Jongo and they are starting their project by simply measuring fan interest through Twitter followers. I would not be surprised to see a Kickstarter campaign to pop up to really kick things in gear if they see the Twitter support. No platforms have been listed outside of possible use of the Unity engine but my best guess would be a downloadable version across all major home consoles including Wii U since Nintendo just licensed Unity for Wii U development.

Holy Sith! The Final Star Wars Anime Update!

The Star Wars Anime reported on a week ago has gone through an epic struggle to stay up online. I have updated the post numerous times trying to keep a live YouTube link but each time, the user removes the video. In this final update, I have found a copy that has some very cool audio mixed in giving a very complete feel to the project. I will no longer be looking to keep the link updated if it gets taken down again because quite frankly, I have better stuff to do. If the file does get taken down and you wish to see it, feel free to contact me on twitter and I will e-mail a copy from my personal collection. It is an 11mb mp4 file and I will only send a copy if the YouTube link no longer works, this is strictly for fans. View the updated post now!
