A sci-fi action/shooter adventure Castlevania: Lords of Shadowdeveloper MercurySteam has been teasing a new project for a while now, leading to all sorts of wild speculation that it was going to take on another storied franchise (possiblyMetal Gear!), but its next game is in fact a new property:Raiders of the Broken Planet. Details are fairly light right now, but the studio is billing this self-published, digital-only PC, PS4, and Xbox One title as a “multiplayer online asymmetric adventure” with a mix of shooting, brawling, and strategy....

We’ll see, Reggie Nintendo has made a point of telling us, for the past year, that the 3DS is still going to be a thing until the Switch is a “multiple device per household” product. Let us count the ways:here,here,hereand here (you’re here right now). If Nintendo has talked about the 3DS in any way shape or form, I’m listening. Why? It’s one of my most-played systems of this entire generation (possibly ever as far as handhelds go) and it houses a ton of incredible gems: the longer Nintendo supports it and keeps its eShop running, the better....

As much as Nintendo has changed and warped since the success of the Wii, it’s nice to know that the company hasn’t abandonedallof its old sensibilities. Like its complete fear of violence and love of bizarre censorship. Did you know that plastic gun peripherals for the Wii aren’t allowed to be called guns? This is by royal decree of Nintendo, and even evil publisher Activision has to obey. Activision’sJeff Muench toldGame Informerhow a series of “obscure Nintendo regulations” affected the gun peripherals forCabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010....

Insomniac has parted its legs and given us aglistening glimpseofResistance 3‘s multiplayer mode. The big change is thatR3will actually reduce the amount of players in a match, going from 40+ mayhem to more reserved 16-player matches. The change was made because apparently the game is just morefunon a smaller scale. There will be Human vs. Chimera deathmatch and objective-based modes on maps set around the world. Resistance 3will offer a “deep” customization experience, with progression paths that suit a variety of play styles....

According to sources close to Namco Bandai, the game is giving developers a fit as they try to port it over to the PlayStation 3.

Don’t stop there; however, as the rumor goes on to say that the Wii is now the focal point of the resources previously associated with the PS3 version....
