Hyrule Warriors concerns

Hyrule Warriors has become a fairly successful sub-series for The Legend of Zelda, but prior to its release, Nintendo of America was apparently concerned about the game.

That news comes from Kit Ellis, who has many years of experience working at the company. He mentioned during the latest Kit & Krysta podcast episode how people within Nintendo of America were worried about the quality of Hyrule Warriors and the possibility of it dropping the status of Zelda. Some even felt that it shouldn’t be released in North America.

Tomba Special Edition

Thanks to Limited Run Games, we have a release date for Tomba Special Edition. The title launches on August 1, 2024.

Tomba Special Edition is a new version of the 1997 platformer. The re-release was announced nearly a year ago, but there was no word on launch timing until now.

One Piece Odyssey

April 15: Bandai Namco is bringing One Piece Odyssey to Switch, the company just announced. It’s set to launch on July 26, 2024.

One Piece Odyssey is a turn-based RPG that first came out last year. Ilca, perhaps best known for Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, worked on the game.

Shadow the Hedgehog was a more serious and mature take on the Sonic series, but it turns out that SEGA originally had plans to take things even further with an M-rated classification.

That news comes from Jason Griffith, who voiced the character in the GameCube game. Griffith was looking back on the role in an interview with GameLuster.
