Nigoro: Still a Chance for La-Mulana on WiiWare

Japanese developer Nigoro has said there's still a possibility we'll see La-Mulana reach WiiWare in the West.

The team said on its official blog:

To be honest, we don’t give up WiiWare version for overseas.
So, we want to let you know in advance, “There is a possibility to release WiiWare version.”
It will be without the additional download contents. So far, you can’t play Hell temple on WiiWare though, it might be a better option for someone who doesn’t need to play Hell temple or prefers to play on the game console.

The news the game will no longer receive the DLC is a blow, but after this long we'd settle for getting anything La-Mulana related.

Nigoro closed its blog with the optimistic words:

The plan is proceeding smoothly, but please wait for the information.
We will let you know when the release is entirely confirmed.

In June we reported that PEGI had rated La-Mulana for release by Spanish publisher EnjoyUp! Games, but the rating was swiftly taken down.

Project Sora Disbanded

Pit stop

Kid Icarus: Uprising developer Project Sora has shut up shop.

The studio's official site shows it closed on 30th June, and the site itself will go at the end of this month.

Before anyone gets too carried away, it's worth remembering that Project Sora was originally established as a subsidiary of Sakurai's own, and decidedly ongoing, Sora Ltd. Sakurai will continue to develop games and will oversee Super Smash Bros. on 3DS and Wii U with Namco Bandai, but the team assembled for Kid Icarus: Uprising has now disbanded.

Angry Birds Trilogy Takes Aim at 3DS

Golden eggs

Rovio has finally announced Angry Birds Trilogy for 3DS, on the way in 2012.

The retail release combines the first three Angry Birds games — Angry Birds, Rio and Seasons — on one cartridge with new StreetPass features. Sadly the gravity-based Angry Birds Space doesn't feature, but three games in one isn't too bad.

We haven't got much in the way of 3DS-specific details at the moment but Rovio promises new content and updated graphics. With the game on the way before Christmas, we won't have to wait too long to learn more.

Enter the Pokémon World Tournament in Black & White 2

Pokémon Black & White 2 comes with a few new features to boost it over its predecessor, with Nintendo recently talking more about the Pokémon World Tournament mode.

Here you'll be able to take on gym leaders and champions from past games — Lance and Volkner both return — while using moves and battle tactics from Black and White 2.

If you want to fight new opponents though, the Pokémon Company International will select teams from the 2012 Video Game Championships and distribute them online via Nintendo WiFi Connection for you to battle against. They'll probably be quite strong though, so you'll want to train hard before taking them on.

Pokémon Black and White 2 land this October.

Nintendo has revealed new information about the Pokémon World Tournament game-play mode that debuts in the Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 games, which launch for the Nintendo DS family of systems on Oct. 7. The game is also playable in 2D on Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 3DS XL. In Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2, players will return to the Unova region and embark on a new adventure set two years after the events of the acclaimed Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version games.

The new Pokémon World Tournament includes the following:

Compete Against Classic Gym Leaders: Enter the Pokémon World Tournament, an exciting battle arena where players will be able to take on numerous Gym Leaders and Champions from previous Pokémon video games. Fans of the series will be able to battle trainers like Lance, Champion from the Johto Region, and Volkner, Gym Leader from the Sinnoh Region. Players can also use a variety of battle styles and moves found in Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 against these classic opponents.

Battle Format: Players will enter the Pokémon World Tournament and be challenged to defeat all the Pokémon World Tournament opponents in order to win. Featured battles include single battles, double battles, triple battles and rotational battles. Also, using the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, The Pokémon Company International will choose a select number of the top players and their Pokémon teams who are participating at the 2012 Pokémon Video Game World Championships and distribute them for battle in the Pokémon World Tournament. More details about this distribution will be announced later this year.

What Do You Make of this Hello Kitty Sonic Crossover?

Straw poll

Two of the world's most recognisable animals combined today in what scientists are probably calling "disgusting".

This Hello Kitty and Sonic the Hedgehog plush toy — officially called the Sonic x Hello Kitty Super Jumbo Plushy — is heading to Japan this weekend to commemorate the reopening of SEGA's flagship Joypolis arcade. It's part of a new collaboration between Sanrio and SEGA that will spread worldwide next summer, so you're safe for now.

Hello Kitty confirmed as playable sidekick in the next Sonic game, then. As long as we can be Badtz-Maru we're happy.

Metroid Fan Film is Light on Action, Heavy on Chat

Ceres-ly

We've seen some great Nintendo fan films over the years; films that made us think "if only". This short film, Metroid: Encounter at Ceres Colony, wants to be next.

As the name suggests, the short takes Super Metroid as its inspiration but mixes in some elements from the Metroid Prime Trilogy too. Serious Samus fans will also enjoy other nods to the series' past.

Check out the video below and let us now what you think in the comments.

Thanks to Jason for the tip!
