The Last Story Localisation Killed by Sales?
As many fans of the RPG genre know, The Last Story is a Nintendo x Mistwalker production and many people had hoped for a localisation of this game for Europe and North America.
Sales for the first week were great for the game, and The Last Story was at #1 on the Japanese charts. But since then, they have dropped to 99,000 sold, down from the 118,953 that was sold during the first week. I’m hoping that the sales will pick up or at least stabilize at around this mark.
If you would like to see this game get localised, please sign the petition here!

Gaming One Hour Everyday = Success in Life
Jane McGonigal over at the Huffington Post wrote an interesting article on how gaming can help improve quality of life. In her article, she explains that around 97% of boys and 94% of girls under the age of 18 are regular gamers showing how important gaming is to our lives these days. She goes one step further and makes an attempt to argue that gaming is a way to lead a successful life. While I would tend to agree with her views that gaming is “good for you” in that it is a great form of recreation and a fairly decent social activity, I wouldn’t necessarily believe that it makes people more successful. Regardless, this article is an interesting read and a fresh take on the traditional “OMG gaming kills children” views published in mainstream media.
Check it out here.

Cave Story 3D heading to the 3DS
Cave Story is heading to the 3DS with 3D upgrades making this a slightly different experience to a neat little game that originally started as a freeware game on the PC. I’m hoping that even with the 3D enhancements, Cave Story 3D will be able to keep its retro 2D charm and still be an awesome game. It will be available for the 3DS in the Summer of 2011

RIP Guitar Hero
Activision has cancelled the popular Guitar Hero franchise and has dissolved its dev team. This is due to the declining sales in the music game genre. I think it is a sad day for anyone that enjoys Guitar Hero or Rock Band since it leaves Rock Band as the sole game that has the whole band experience. I’m hoping that they will revive this franchise in a few years and not churn out a new game every year due to market saturation.

Another fun spoof on Apple’s ads against Microsoft. Nothing like a parody done right

Tiger Labs makes a Nintendo DS emulator
Tiger Labs has made a proof of concept DS emulator which is pretty neat! The only thing is that the games run really slow on this emulator. They anticipate to be ready in 2012. Some improvements can be found in making new processors and phones that will be able to keep up with the intensive floating-point calculations that DS games use. Now lets see how long it takes someone to make a 3DS/PSP2 emulator!
