Nintendo Handhelds are Literally Indestructible!

A post from redditor mightsoundsillybut shows his 3DS that has been caught on fire and still works. Take a look at the pictures below and see for yourself:

Other than the pics shown above, I know most of you are also familiar with the Nintendo DS that had survived mount everest and a Gameboy that had survived a bomb explosion during the Gulf War.

if there's a gundamium in anime, nintendium is going to be their equivalent in real life

Watch The Monster Hunter 4 Opening Movie

Monster Hunter 4 will be released outside Japan early 2015 and almost all of us who owns a 3DS agrees that this is one of the games that we're all waiting for and after watching this, I just really got hyped with the game. Just look how intense this opening video is:

Here's A New Gameplay Trailer And Graphics Comparison For Final Fantasy Type-0 HD

Final Fantasy Type-0 was originally a psp game but was only released in Japan. As Square Enix announced the western release of the HD remake is going to be on PS4 and Xbox One, there has been a lot of negative feedback from fans who were expecting that the game should be released in PS Vita. Here's a new trailer for the game and I gotta say, I didn't expect it to be this good. Check this out and be the judge:

I Almost Died Watching This New Final Fantasy XV Trailer

Are you one of those people who are anticipating this game so bad but almost lost hope after almost 9 years of waiting? If you do, here's a new trailer for Final Fantasy XV and personally, I couldn't contain my excitement for this game. Hell, this is the only reason why I really want to get a PS4. Check out this new trailer:

Final Fantasy Type-0 Has A Release Date, Final Fantasy XV Demo Included And I Almost Peed In My Pants

Square Enix announced that on March 17, 2015, Fantasy Type-0 HD will be released together with a demo download voucher for Final Fantasy XV. “Episode Duscae,” the title of the upcoming demo focuses on the early parts of the game with some elements altered in order to make it a great demo experience.

This has been one of the biggest news for the game after its trailer in E3 2013. The game was previously named Final Fantasy Versus XIII and was then changed to Final Fantasy XV and has been in development for 8 years since its first announcement in 2006.

Final Fantasy Type-0 also caused a lot of negative reactions from fans who were expecting that the game was supposed to be localised in PSVita instead of an HD remake in PS4 since the game was originally released in Japan for the PSP but hopefully the game would do great in PS4 since it is a wonderful Final Fantasy game.

Liquid Entertainment Creates A Kickstarter For The Next Battle Realms Game

If Battle Realms has been part of your childhood, then, here's a good news for you. Battle Realms is coming back but you've gotta help them through kickstarter.

I know you're really hyped about this news but here's the twist that a lot of fans might hate or like; The game is not going to be an RTS. The game is going to be something that they call: A unique fusion of collectible card game, RPG and RTS and it's going to be called Battle Realms Legends! Here's a short explanation of how Battle Realms Legends is going to be played:

Battle Realms Legends is a collectible card game RPG, infused with RTS elements such as territorial control and resource management. You take on the role of a powerful hero and embark on a story-driven and branching campaign specific to your chosen clan. Your hero grows through skills, talent trees, story choices, and deck building. Battles are resolved using an active-play card game format, with highly customizable deck parameters, reserve sideboards, and some really innovative card mechanics.

Liquid Entertainment pledged a $100,000 goal until Oct 17 2014 3:18 AM AWST and is planned to release in Steam. To check more details and if you're interested to back them up, go to their kickstarter page.

A Funny But Awkward Hyrule Warriors Glitch

Recently Hyrule Warriors has been released in Japan and players discovered a weird glitch. Here's the screenshot:

As you can see, the screenshot shows that characters accidentally swapped animations and movesets with other characters. Look at Princess Zelda's face when she tries to lift that huge metal ball and Link's looking fabolous as hell with his kawaii pose.

The glitch seems to be activated by selecting an additional character as player 2 in Adventure Mode and leaving the cursor over their weapon selection. Pressing B to then go back will faintly leave Player 2’s weapon on Player 1’s selection screen. Moving the stick when the game reverts back to the original weapon set will allow you to enter the game with Player 2’s moves.

By the time this game gets released in other countries, it's possible that they would make a patch that would remove this glitch but, personally, I hope they won't because it looks like a funny piece of easter egg that I would gladly show my friends to get a good laugh.

EA Exec: iPhone 6 Specs 'On Par' With PS4 and Xbox One

Frank Gibaeu, the executive vice president of EA Mobile division, told GamesIndustry.biz that he believes iPhone 6 shows less gaps in terms of performance between home consoles, as Gibeau claimed:

"With the retina display and the improved processor, combined with the Metal [graphics] capabilities and 128 GB of memory, that gets you to a device that's on par with next-generation consoles. That's moving perfectly into our strike zone,"

There has not been confirmed specs for iPhone 6 yet but rumours suggest that it will have one Gigabyte of RAM and a processor that runs at about 1.4 gigahertz, a specs that is way too far from PS4 and Xbox One that both carry 8GB on memory alone.

Could This Be The Next-Gen Handheld Device By Nintendo?

Users from Neogaf had just spotted a patent by Nintendo together with AMBRELLA Co. that looks like a new handheld device, filed On March 7, 2014 and was published on September 11, via the USPTO. It could possibly be a new handheld that is going to be next to 3ds but I'm not sure yet since the complete details regarding the device other than the patent is not clear yet.

Interesting enough, the device is described that it's going to utilize NFC/RFID figures and IC cards (smart cards) for gaming purposes, with Pokémon (seemingly) in focus.





This image looks like the pokemon menu from pokemon games.
