The company's VP has also stepped down.
THQ has been in the news a lot lately, due to its financial woes that have caused the company to completely restructure. This has resulted in everything from massive layoffs to the selling off of game properties such as the UFC license to EA and Devil’s Third by Tomonobu Itagaki’s Valhalla Studios. Well, that restructuring continues, as we’ve learned of a few more developments in the ongoing saga of this long-suffering publisher.
A lot to love in this week's releases.
It’s been a while since Nintendo has given 3DS owners a good reason to visit the Nintendo eShop, but that looks to change this week with a couple of fantastic releases this week.
The PlayBit is over, watch the rerun for the first two worlds of Four Swords Adventures. The first stage or so was cut off from the recording for some reason, but enjoy the rest!
Never had a chance to try out Four Swords Adventures with a few friends? Have no fear! Bradley, Chris, and Jason are here! The trio will be playing as Link, Link, and Link in the less-common GameCube Zelda title. We've played through the first two stages, tune in below!
Miyamoto reveals the news during the Nintendo press conference.
Today, Nintendo announced a few items of Zelda news, the most exciting of which is a freebie, four player version of The Legend of Zelda Four Swords for the DSi. The game will be available, again, for free, this September. It was also announced that Link's Awakening will be available by day's end around the world on the 3DS eShop.
Believe it or not, a technologically inferior system can still host a good sequel to Okami. If you don't mind the copy-and-paste feel.
I am just going to say this right now: don’t ever expect Okamiden to outdo its predecessor. The original, directed by Hideki Kamiya and developed by the beloved Clover Studio, was a fantastic take on mixing Zelda gameplay elements and Japanese mythology. While many wanted a sequel (myself included), Capcom closed up Clover and the staff behind Okami left to form Platinum Games. Now we have a sequel in our hands, Kamiya-less and developed by a completely different team, on an inferior piece of hardware too.
