After the success of Kung Fu Rabbit on Wii U, Neko Entertainment has confirmed plans to bring the title down to the 3DS eShop. The aim is to release the title before the year's end, but no price point talk was discussed at this time.
- once holiday Wii U sales come in, Nintendo will decide "what the company needs to do, over the long-term, about its platform."
- still didn't think a major strategic overhaul is needed
"One game has the power to change everything. Are we satisfied with these sales results? No. Is it impossible to recover from this? No."
Man, if I were on the Price is Right, this would be my dream way to win a spot on stage. I think I could figure out pretty damn well just how much this costs!
Is there yet another bundle on the way? This is all Amazon is showing for now. We'll try to get comment from Ubisoft on this one. Thanks to WelshGamer for the heads up!
Call of Duty®: Ghosts introduces a Perk system with an incredible level of customization. While we went into some detail during the Multiplayer Reveal, let’s take a closer look so you’re ready to go at launch this November:
Equipping Perks
Each of the 35 available Perks is weighted with a point value of 1 through 5. Your loadouts naturally have a pool of 8 points to spend on Perks, up to a total of 12 depending on your loadout choices.
In addition to the initial 8 points, a single Perk point is tied to the Primary Weapon slot, Secondary Weapon slot, Lethal and Tactical. Take away any one of these items for an additional Perk point, allowing a maximum of 12 points to spend. If you’re a Perk fanatic, you’re welcome to forego all weapons and equipment, starting each spawn with only a knife in hand and 12 points worth of Perks. It’s your choice.
Perk Unlock System
Perks are unlocked in one of two ways. Each Perk is marked with a level and a Squad Point cost. Once you reach the listed level, the Perk is automatically unlocked for use. If you’d rather unlock a Perk early, you can also choose to spend the listed amount of Squad Points for immediate access. Can’t wait to unlock Blast Shield for your Domination matches? Pay the listed Squad Points ahead of time and it’s yours to use.

Coming from a Dtoid interview with composer Mahito Yokota...
"There are naturally a lot of tracks performed live. We're arranging the music with a big-band feel, taking advantage of a full horn section with trumpets and saxophones."
I've really enjoyed what I've heard so far. I cannot wait to hear more! Music really is one of my favorite parts of some games.
"While Wii U, Xbox One, and PS4 hold the promise and technological prowess to transform gaming in the living room, this may only benefit core gamers. Casual gamers are sufficiently happy with cheaper gaming options on more ubiquitous devices like smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and Digital Media Adapters, which will naturally depress the highs the industry achieved with the Nintendo Wii." - Strategy Analytics' director of connected home devices David Watkins Link
