The Pokémon fighting game has an English trailer but says "Planned for arcades in Japan in 2015" and they don't show the Japanese logo. I think it's pretty obvious it's coming to the US. Why else put up an English trailer? Given the arcade scene is, unfortunately, dead outside Japan, I don't think a Wii U version is unlikely.

Really wish arcades would make a comeback. They are still popular in some spots on the West Coast, as well as Galloping Ghost right outside Chicago.

I remember the only reason I ever wanted to go to the mall as a kid was for the arcades. Good times.

If I could have my own business, I'd want to have an arcade. There's a vacant place which would be prime spot for one just 5 minutes from my house.

Arcades are completely dead here. A few years ago, I asked my nephew if he knew what an arcade was and he didn't. Kids have no arcade experiences now.

Official Dr Who skins coming to Minecraft for the 360.

I'm interested in neither but I know it's a big thing to some people.

Japan is getting a Nintendo Direct sometime soon. It's 3DS focused but I'm predicting a Smash reveal.

There's one in Glasgow, fucked if I can remember the name and it's Glasgow so there's that downside too.

Today's News:
1) Ubisoft announces Assassin's Creed Unity's release date has been delayed by 2 weeks and will now be released on the same day as Assassin's Creed Rogue (November 11th).
http://www.screwattack.com/news/assa...ns-creed-rouge

2) The free game offerings for September's Games with Gold promotion were revealed to be Super Time Force (Xbox One), Crimson Dragon (Xbox One), Monaco: What’s Yours Is Mine (Xbox 360), and Halo: Reach (Xbox 360).
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...mes-with-gold/

3) According to Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo is currently in the process of changing their business plans to be more "core" focused in the near future. The reason is due to them believing the Wii era and mobile gaming in general has done enough to expand the gaming audience while Nintendo themselves want to get back to developing more challenging games again.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...r-casual-ones/

4) Harmonix reveals their newest game called A City Sleeps will be released this October for Steam and was described as a side-scrolling music-and-rhythm shoot ‘em up.

Yay another month of MS dropping the ball on the free games. STF is good, but leaving Crimson Dragon up for another month is weak. Sony can manage 2 new games a month, why can't you MS? HUH?

Despite the new additions, the handhelds will be the same size as the ones currently available. A new C-button grants the ability to control games with dual analogue controls, while a micro SD card slot and NFC-technology are also part of the package. Interestingly, this means the planned NFC reading device the company's talked about in relation to its new Amiibo range is likely only relevant for older models.

Late Night News Edition:

Activision is currently rumored to be planning an attempt to purchase Take-Two Interactive soon.

Quote:
Benchmark analyst Mike Hickey discussed "an emerging romance" between the two companies, which have similar goals, in a research note Friday. Take-Two and Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI) are interested in forming movie studios to make feature films based on their game franchises.

"For Activision, acquiring Take-Two Interactive would be a no-brainer, in our view, circling some of the strongest development talent and owned IP in the world, within a company that has nearly $1 billion in cash and trades at a comparably lower multiple," Hickey said ...

Take-Two was last in play in 2008 when Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:EA) offered to buy it for $26 a share in a deal worth $2 billion. Take-Two rejected the deal, saying it undervalued the company. EA made its initial offer in February 2008 and discontinued its pursuit of Take-Two in September 2008.

"With the acquisition of Take-Two Interactive, Activision would have arguably the three strongest development studios in the world with Rockstar Games, Bungie and Blizzard," Hickey said.
http://news.investors.com/technology...lk-by-atvi.htm

In terms of a potential offer, Activision has way more money in cash reserves alone than Take-Two has in total wealth. Could easily make a $2-3 billion offer and still have $1-2 billion left afterwards.

According to the thread in Neogaf where I found the news, the EA bid was dropped because EA barely went above Take-Two's net value and weren't willing to provide large sums of their own money for Take Two's projects.

These giant developer devouring, game killing studios do get tricky to tell apart sometimes.

For those interested and have an Xbox 360, Microsoft is offering a free month of Xbox Live Gold. The only catch is your account needs to be Silver to do it and have to manually turn off auto-renewal on their website.

I'm currently trying to change my Gamertag, as I've been meaning to do it for years now, but when I enter a new one, it says it's already taken.

Although, when I check the availability of it from both the official Xbox website and another site that let's you check the availability of Gamertags, both say that the Gamertag is available.

May have to call them. Could be a retired GT but the system is sloppy with that. I couldn't remove 360 from my GT for years because of this.

Urgh, that's a pain in the ass.

Though I did say the same thing on an Xbox forum and I just got this reply.


Quote:
Gamer tags are not only used by XBox but also Microsoft games and other Microsoft products. If they say its unavailable when you try to create it, it means its in use somewhere in the system.
So if that's actually true, then I'll just have to think of another Gamertag.

I got another reply from someone on the other forum I posted on saying:

Quote:
Just change the spelling a little spaces does not make a name different
I was always lead to believe that spaces do make a name different.

The Gamertag I would like is taken, so I thought using it without a space would be fine. According to the Gamertag availability sites and the Xbox site, it is fine and it's available.
