Bit Boy ARCADE is literally a story of the ups and downs of game development, in the form of a video game. Sometimes things don’t work out, and you have to scrap entire ideas and characters, but with a little hard work, and a whole lot of perseverance, something new and beautiful is made. In this game, a game creator and his creation are brought together, and while they have their differences, they team up to bring peace back to the world of pixels. This game was released yesterday on the Nintendo 3DS eShop for $7.99, and I’m sure you’re wondering whether or not you should give it a try. Read on for my opinion!
Enjoy all 100+ screens from Super Smash Bros. on Wii U after the break!
Although the eerie survival horror Cult County is now coming to home consoles and PC, the developers at Renegade Kid have shared that it is still coming to Nintendo 3DS. This is a big relief, since it was originally announced for Nintendo’s feisty handheld. Also, there’s just something about playing a survival horror game on my 3DS with 3D on that gives me chills. After playing and beating the crap out of Resident Evil: Revelations, I’ve been dying to see more of the horror genre on 3DS. In their latest Kickstarter update, Renegade Kid confirmed that the 3DS will be added to the platform lineup, as long as they reach their stretch goal of $580,000.
If you want to play the game on 3DS, be sure to support Renegade Kid in the development of Cult County.
Conception 2: Children of the Seven Stars is a game that has been a trending topic in the world of gaming as of late, due its bizarre story and similarity to the Persona series. Have you ever heard of a game where you make babies to save the world? Well, now you have. This labyrinth-crawling RPG (developed by Spike Chunsoft) was released to North America today on Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita. The Vita version was made first, which makes this 3DS version a port. In fact the kind folks at Atlus have even shared that they made fewer copies of the 3DS version compared to those on Sony’s handheld. Say whaaaaat?
That being said, does it stand up to its original version, or would you be better off buying it for the Vita? Find out in my review!
Finally An RTS For The Wii U!
For those of you in the dark, Hex Heroes is an RTS planned for the Wii U and PC. Started by Prismatic Games LLC. Hex Heroes is a 5-person co-op or competitive RTS that is in its last few days of kickstarter funding. The game itself looks super promising and has cameos from several indie game personalities like Juan from Guacamelee and Shovel Knight from Shovel Knight. Not only that but the Game Grumps will also be making appearances in the game. Pair all of that with a soundtrack made by Grant Kirkhope and you have a Wii U game that is a must buy!
I had the opportunity to discuss the game with Mario Castenada and ask him some questions. Read on for the interview!
At first glance, this might look like a new game. In reality, it is a collection of previously released games, brought to Nintendo 3DS!

It is a good fit for 3DS? Find out in my review!

In a recent interview with Edge magazine, Super Mario 3D World producer Yoshiaki Koizumi revealed that the development team are already working on a new title. He is not yet able to confirm what the game is, or whether it’s coming to Wii U or 3DS, but he did note that they are already working on new game mechanics. What better title to add new mechanics to than one in the Galaxy series? Nintendo has previously hinted towards another game in the series, but they were in the middle of Super Mario 3D World at the time. We can’t be for sure, but do do have a pretty big hunch that the next game will be Super Mario Galaxy 3 for Wii U. What do you think?
This probably isn’t the first time you’ve seen the name Bravely Default. If you haven’t then I would assume you are probably sharing the same first impression that we all had: “WHAT DOES THAT NAME EVEN MEAN?!” I know; the developers couldn’t have picked a more awkward and confusing name if they tried. Despite the strange name, it has done remarkably well in the West. The game received overall positive reviews from critics, and even topped the spectacular launch sales of Fire Emblem: Awakening last year. You’re probably asking, what’s the big deal with Bravely Default? Why is it so great? Find out in my review!
