The following info comes from an EDGE interview with Nintendo producer Yoshiaki Koizumi and EAD Tokyo team leader Kenta Motokura...

- work has begun on a new Mario game
- won't reveal if its for 3DS or Wii U

“I can tell you, though, that we’ve already started approaching our next challenge. There’s still a lot more room for discovery and invention, and we’ll continue to propose new and exciting game mechanics going into the future.” - Koizumi

- if the next title is a Wii U game, Motokura says the team “might need to make even more use of the GamePad.”
- the Double Cherry power-up was once again confirmed to spawn from a glitch
- Cat Mario came from a desire to have Mario make use of the ground and other surfaces
- this idea started out with the characters running around on all-fours
- when originally tested, the characters that ran on all-fours were simply a different color

Today we would like to talk a little about our crafting and harvesting system! (We'll get to the kittens further down in the post)

We have gone about this the organic way by allowing the player to plant various seeds that will grow into ammunition for the different characters. We wanted to give the player a base to come back to after each quest, a place to rest and prepare for the next journey.

The idea is to split up some of the character progression elements into object and plants on your home base.

A portion of a Nintendo Feed interview with Syrenne McNulty...

NF: What made you choose the Wii U as a console rather than others?

SM: Could you imagine booting out of Ryse: Son of Rome, Dead Rising 3, inFAMOUS Second Son, or Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, and then launching I've Got to Run! ? Incidentally, I’m not saying anything negative about any of those games – I love two of them and really enjoyed the other two, but there’s a certain connection between arcade-y styles of gameplay and Nintendo platforms that at least permeates my unconscious. It also doesn't hurt that Nintendo is rapidly increasing their indie outreach and making their platforms easy to develop for!

inFAMOUS Second Son and Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes rocked the PlayStation Store PS4 charts in March… you could have probably guessed that, though. But did you know South Park: The Stick of Truth grabbed the #2 spot on the PS3 list, beaten only by the mighty Minecraft? It even triumphed over my beloved Dark Souls II!

Square Enix’s HD remaster of Final Fantasy X and X2 Jecht shot (that pun is a real stretch, sorry) to the top of the PS Vita charts, and the Classics list looks… well, pretty much as you’d expect it to.

Worth noting: Fez landed in the PS Store top sellers on all three platforms it launched on last month!

"If you're backwards compatible, you're really backwards," said former Xbox chief Don Mattrick, explaining why Xbox One wouldn't play Xbox 360 games mere days after it was unveiled. If that's the case, then the Xbox world under new division head Phil Harrison may be as backwards as the average Justin Bieber hat. According to Xbox partner development lead Frank Savage, Microsoft is working on a solution to get Xbox 360 games on Xbox One, but players at home may never get to experience it themselves.

When asked by an audience member at Microsoft's Build developer conference whether the company had plans for backwards compatibility on Xbox One, Savage responded in the affirmative but with a serious caveat. Getting software made for drastically different hardware to run on another machine is a tricky proposition.

"There are [plans], but we're not done thinking them through yet, unfortunately," said Savage, as reported by Kotaku Australia. "It turns out to be hard to emulate the PowerPC stuff on the X86 stuff. So there's nothing to announce, but I would love to see it myself."

A Microsoft representative reiterated Savage's statement to Engadget in a follow up inquiry, but also stressed that there are no official plans to bring Xbox 360 compatibility to consumer Xbox Ones any time soon. "It is super challenging to emulate two completely different architectures, and there aren't currently any plans to build this," said the spokesperson.

Players clinging desperately to those copies of Perfect Dark: Zero and Bomberman: Act Zero, don't get rid of your Xbox 360s just yet. [Images: Microsoft]

Sometimes a game project seems too ambitious to post. How could this possibly ever be made? But then, there is a trailer, and there are screenshots, and it is nice to dream from time to time. Sticks & Starships has all the buzzwords du jour: it’s open-world, procedurally generated, about exploration and building, and uses voxels. It also pairs that Minecraft-y/Starbound-y core with a Civilization-style march through the history technological progress, as players begin with primitive tools (like Sticks) and build towards larger and more complicated machinery (like Starships).

So that’s No Man’s Sky meets Minecraft meets Civilization. Easy enough for its two-man indie team to produce? Stranger things have happened. The trailer below gives some reason to hope.

8th April 2014 – On 17th April, Nintendo eShop is set to welcome the skills of budding football tacticians from across the continent when the football management simulation Nintendo Pocket Football Club releases exclusively for Nintendo 3DS family systems as a downloadable title. With the chance to lead a team of pint-sized players from humble beginnings to future glories, train up your team and choose to take on fellow managers via online play, and compete to be ranked as one of the ‘Top 100 Teams’ in Europe on the Nintendo Pocket Football Club Stats website.

In Nintendo Pocket Football Club, your first steps in building the foundations for your managerial legacy lie in creating your club’s team name, kit and emblem, while early decisions at the Team Camp need to be made when discovering your best starting line-up and tactics. To improve your players’ performances, Training Cards found during matches are the key to helping your players reach their full Potential, with the ability to combine cards to discover Special Combos and enhance your players’ attributes even further. Only by experimenting with Training Cards, tinkering with your team selection, and getting your players plenty of game time will you start to see results pay off on the pitch.

While it is possible to play Nintendo Pocket Football Club as a single-player experience, managers can compete against friends in a Local Match, receive unique new opponents via SpotPass for friendly match practice, or swap data with fellow Nintendo Pocket Football Club owners through StreetPass encounters to take on their teams and secure more Training Cards in the process. If you’re feeling particularly benevolent towards your fellow managers, you can even share your star performers using the Friend Market, with Nintendo Pocket Football Club owners on your Nintendo 3DS friend list therefore also able to have your top performers in their side!

From around launch, the official Nintendo Pocket Football Club website will be supplemented by the Nintendo Pocket Football Club Stats website, your one-stop shop for seeing how your team is performing when competing in online Ranking Matches with fellow managers. In Ranking Matches, set up your team’s style of play before letting them loose against players from across Europe. As well as a ‘Top 100 Teams’ ranking for the whole of Europe, the Nintendo Pocket Football Club Stats website also boasts a ranking feature showing the ‘Top 100 Teams’ from the same country as your club. Keep an eye out also for SpotPass messages delivered from launch which will invite you to participate in set tournaments – just another way to boost your managerial skills and go head to head with fellow bosses.

Create your own pocket-sized dynasty from 17th April when Nintendo Pocket Football Club releases exclusively on Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS family systems, available at a special launch offer price of £10.79 until 1st May (23:59 local time). After this date, the game will be available to purchase from Nintendo eShop for £13.49.
