Capcom shows off Monster Hunter Generations for 3DS

Monster Hunter Generations – Capcom Reveals Downloadable Demo and More at E3

Today during the Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 broadcast, Capcom’s Monster Hunter development team bravely took down formidable foes in a live game demo of the upcoming Monster Hunter Generations for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. The team also announced several exciting pieces of news for fans of the action RPG series.

On the livestream, Capcom confirmed details for a downloadable demo of Monster Hunter Generations, which features three monsters of varying difficulty levels for both new and experienced players, with options for local and online multiplayer (1-4 players). Players are encouraged to join up with others and start with the newly introduced Great Maccao, then attempt to face the beguiling new owl-like monster Malfestio, all before truly testing their mettle against the fan-favorite Nargacuga. The demo will be available for all gamers to download on the Nintendo eShop on June 30

th

. However, select fans will begin to receive special early access codes for the demo via email beginning today. For others that can’t wait to start the hunt, early access to the demo is also available now in Humble Bundle’s E3 2016 Digital Ticket.

Also released today, a brand new E3 trailer for Monster Hunter Generations introduces the game’s daunting new enemies known as Deviant monsters. These are monsters that have survived previous hunter encounters, mutating and evolving into the greatest threats yet with new fearsome looks, unpredictable behaviors and unexpected abilities. These challengers, such as the Dreadking Rathalos and the Thunderlord Zinogre, yield parts to craft incredibly powerful and unique gear; which become worthy rewards for the most skilled hunters.

The game will be releasing digitally and at retail across North America and Europe on July 15, 2016.

Capcom showcases new Details on Phoenix Wright Spirit of Justice

Ace Attorney Summons New E3 Demo and Story and Details

EUREKA! The western debut demo for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice is playable at E3 in the Capcom booth (South Hall, #2023). New assets and story details have been submitted as evidence. Head on over to the Capcom Press Center now to review all the latest materials for the title.

The new demo introduces bright-eyed monk-in-training and self-styled tour guide Ahlbi Ur’gaid, who has been accused of stealing the Kingdom of Khura’in’s national treasure, “The Founder’s Orb,” and murdering its guard, Paht Rohl. Under the kingdom’s legal system, if the defendant is proven guilty, so is the representing attorney. This has led to the absence of lawyers for many years, but visiting attorney Phoenix Wright steps in to defend Ahlbi against the returning and smugger-than-ever prosecutor Gaspen Payne.

In this land’s courtrooms, séance trials decide the fate of all defendants. Royal priestess Rayfa is able to divine the final moments of a victim’s life in the courtroom’s Pool of Souls. The victim’s memories are not limited to sight alone – all of a victim’s final sensations are laid bare for the court to consider before a judgment is made. Players will need to find inconsistencies between Rayfa’s interpretations of the vision and the memory itself to prove Ahlbi’s innocence.

There will be a Capcom-Unity livestream today (June 14) at 2pm PT and tomorrow (June 15) at 11am PT that will offer a deeper look at the game with key members of the development team. Tune in on Twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/capcomunity.

Stay tuned for more information about Phoenix Wright’s adventures in addition to Apollo Justice’s legal struggles back home at the Wright Anything Agency. The courtroom drama goes into session this September when Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice arrives on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems for $29.99 / £24.99 / €29.99.

60 Million Nintendo 3DS have sold worldwide

​May was a milestone month for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. Having recently passed 60 million units worldwide, the current generation’s top-selling dedicated gaming platform welcomed an entirely new audience with a lower suggested price of $79.99 for the Nintendo 2DS system. This big value has already shown big results. According to the NPD Group, which tracks U.S. video game sales, in May the system saw a 38 percent sales boost over April and a 148 percent increase year-on-year – all after just one week at the new price.

​New owners of the Nintendo 2DS system are finding an instant library of incredible games, such as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, which reentered the NPD Group’s top 25 best-sellers list nearly five years after its release. That game and other hit titles are available for $19.99 as part of the Nintendo Selects collection. Players can also look forward to plenty of exciting new games for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems this year and beyond, such as Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon this November.
