LE Pokémon 3DS XL Coming Stateside
If you’ve been holding out on buying a 3DS until Pokémon comes out, or if you’ve been waiting for a really ugly limited edition Pokémon 3DS XL, September 27 looks to be the day for you. Maybe this thing is to your liking, but I’m just not feeling it. If you do fancy either of these, I would suggest reserving yours at your local stores.

The Future Of Tekken
This has been on my mind for a while now, and doesn’t have very much to do with portable gaming. I don’t know where else to post this rather lengthy article. If you’re a Tekken fan, it may be worth a read. Please express your thoughts in the comments below.

Inafune’s Mighty No. 9
Mega Man creator, Keiji Inafune left Capcom because they wouldn’t let him work on the Mega Man series. He offered to come aboard to help build new Mega Man games, but they refused. He hasn’t spoken to anyone from his former company in a long time. Now, he wants to create a new game that seems to be a spiritual successor, Mighty No. 9. The logo is quite suspicious and might need to be changed, but if you dig through the Kickstarter page, you can see that this isn’t just Mega Man Redux.

Road Not Taken Trailer
I’ve never been very fond of the rogue-like genre, but this game has a certain charm about it that presses buttons in all the right order. It also helps that it’s not a traditional rogue-like in that it focuses heavily on puzzles. From the video, I gathered that puzzles are a part of the combat as well. Check out the video and see for yourself what the developers of TrippleTown have in store for the Vita and Playstation 4. Road Not Teken is scheduled to release early next year.

Nintendo Has Lost Their Minds
So, this is a thing. It’s called the Nintendo 2DS and can do everything the Nintendo 3DS can except the 3D and close to protect the screens. I have lost all hope that Nintendo will ever get back to the Game Boy Advance days. I just…I’m flabbergasted, stunned, and bewildered by this announcement. Looking around, people who have had a hands on with it say that it’s comfortable, but come on! Look at it! It launches October 12th and will cost $130. When I first saw it, I considered it being something parents might get for their kids if it were $100, but I really hope nobody does as they’re…

Killzone Public Beta Today
The Playstation Vita has struggled for over a year to gain a foothold in the Western market, but perhaps things are about to change. For starters, Sony dropped the price of the system and is gearing up for it’s first really decent first person shooter. While I don’t care much for these games, a lot of people in the US have been clamoring for a good FPS on a portable system for years. There have been good games over the years, but most were riddled with bad controls. This one looks to be the game that makes or breaks the Vita in the States. I really hope it turns heads…

Rymdkapsel
Rymdkapsel was first released for the Playstation Vita, but has recently been ported to both iOS and Android smart phones and tablets. When it released for $5 on the Vita, I was quite enthralled by its addicting gameplay that relentlessly gobbled up my days. Now that it’s on other platforms, I find myself playing it even more.
