It seems that The World Ends With You won’t be the only popular DS game to receive an HD-enhanced iOS port. Capcom has announced that the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney trilogy on the DS (which was also on the Gameboy Advance, but only in Japan) will be available on the App Store for 5.0 or higher iOS devices. The first two out of five episodes for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney will be free to everyone, but the rest of the episodes and the other two games, Justice for All and Trials and Tribulations, will have to be bought separately or in a bundle.
The games will feature a new mode where players can express themselves, with the aid of some popular Ace Attorney characters. The main attraction, though, is the HD graphics. Characters and backgrounds look much, much better than they did in the GBA and DS versions. There’s no info yet on how much each game or the bundle will cost.

If you got to watch the Nintendo Direct this morning, we bet you were probably a little disappointed by the outcome: No Wii U information. You did get a slew of new 3DS information, however. But, today Nintendo president: Satora Iwata killed any hope that information will be during the conference on his Twitter (if you can read that, then you are a wizard) feed:
There are more than a few people who are thinking, ‘There will be a Nintendo Conference in September.’ I want to tell you in advance that the announcement of the Wii U in Japan is planned in a way not involving the Conference.”
Now, this certainly doesn’t mean that there won’t be any news around the time of the conference, but we do know that there won’t be any information during the conference. It should be noted that Nintendo may plan to show only software during it’s conference and leaving information about the hardware using their Nintendo Direct service.
Only time will tell what’s on the minds over at Nintendo.

Far Cry 3 welcomes you to the Rook Islands in this new trailer from Ubisoft. One of the more exciting features about Far Cry 3 that I’m pumped up about is the inclusion of a co-op campaign. Granted it is seperate from the single player campaign, it’s still a great addition to the Far Cry series!
Here is what Ubisoft has to say about Far Cry 3:
“Join Agent Huntley, an ex-CIA operative, for an insider’s tour of the insanity of Far Cry 3. Discover the island’s history. Meet the mysterious and deadly residents. And step into a world of exotic animals and extreme travel.”
Far Cry 3 is set to release November 30th in Europe and December 4th in North America

Twisted Pixel’s new title called LocoCycle looks to blend SpyHunter with Road Rash. The title of the game says it all: LOCO. Check out the trailer below if you don’t believe us!
[youtube id=”0f-wN92GkE8″ width=”600″ height=”350″]
Here is the official announcement with details on where you can see LocoCycle at PAX in a few short days!
Twisted Pixel Games today announced definitive video proof of escaped sentient assassin motorcycle “I.R.I.S.” Pairing demure etiquette with flawless hand-to-hand combat skills, this superagent motorcycle has been hailed as the world’s most perfect spy. Big Arms Incorporated, the multinational weapon manufacturer responsible for her construction, have so far denied all reports of I.R.I.S.’s escape, claiming her dampening algorithms would never allow her to go rogue. However, reports point to Big Arms’ agents in widespread deployment across North America, and numerous sightings have been made of Big Arms’ first generation combat motorcycle, S.P.I.K.E., said to be in hot pursuit.

Announced today by Bethesda is a new download for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Xbox 360. Hearthfire is the name of the upcoming DLC in which you have the option to buy a plot of land and build a house for yourself.
You will be able to customize the house by adding kitchens, greenhouses, libraries, an alchemy room, and even a trophy room inside the house. Outside you can create gardens, fish hatcheries and beehives for all your harvesting desires! Also, you are able to hire a steward to help you will all the daily duties that come with the house.
If that’s not enough, you can now adopt and raise orphans there as well. It’s a shame they don’t let you have your own kids with your wife/husband. What would be cooler than a Half-Orc/Half-Khajiit?
Hearthfire will arrive on the Xbox Live Marketplace on September 4th for 400 Microsoft Points. As far as I know, no details on the PS3 version of this…I assume Bethesda is still trying to get the Dawnguard DLC out first.

The World Ends With You is not the only port of a cult game with countdowns that hit iPhones today. Also available on Android, the port of the PC oddity McPixel contains dozens of absurd scenarios in short fits of lunacy inspired by Saturday Night Live’s McGrubber skits and Nintendo’s Wario Ware games.
In any given moment you’ll defuse bombs in ways ranging from making copies to creating a makeshift Batsignal, with all solutions fitting with the most hilarious of adventure game logic. And you only have 20 seconds to figure it out.
Fitting with the game’s requirement for rapid fire decision making, the game is on sale for $1.99 today only. The solution should be obvious.

Lost Planet 3 is looking even better than its’ predecessor and I personally can’t wait for more information to trickle out. With that being said, CVG got a look at Lost Planet 3 earlier this month and had the chance to grab a 15 minute gameplay video!
Lost Planet 3 takes place before the first two games and Capcom has promised a story-driven approach as the first Lost Planet did. Spark Unlimited is in charge of the development for Lost Planet 3, which is a continuing trend of seeking Western developers to make the games instead of developing them internally.
Lost Planet 3 is has no set date, but is expected to release in 2013 for Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.
