Here's today's latest gaming news status!
On today's program;
Two rivals team up, a writer is back and a lawyer gets on the silver screen!
First up Sega and Nintendo got a new ad for their upcoming crossover title Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Actually there's two slightly different versions of it currently running, one for Sonic and another one for Mario.
It's due out on the Wii soon, on November 18 for most countries, 15 for the US and December 8 for Asia. And the 3DS will get its version next February only.
Meanwhile, some new Alan Wake material has long been rumored.
Finally, Remedy revealed it was named Alan Wake's Night Springs, and will be a sort of spinoff/DLC episode.
The first picture has been revealed Game Informer's website.
It doesn't show much, but a lot of things can be guessed from this simple pic.
You can see a Night Springs sign on the right. This means it will take place in an actual Night Springs location.
The game will use the same mechanics/physics as you can guess from the tone and lights here.
But Alan is wearing very different clothes and not handling a gun but a nail gun instead.
I can guess it will either take place in Alan Wake's mind, projecting himself into the fictional in-game Twilight Zone TV show spoof. Or it won't even be related to Alan Wake's story in the main game and be simply an Xbox Live Arcade original title reusing familiar faces to tell a Night Springs story.
An actual trailer will be soon released, around Spike TV's VGA Awards event.
Temporary DLC to help fans await until the actual sequel?
And finally, here's a trailer of the upcoming Phoenix Wright movie!
Woah!
It looks even better than what I imagined at first!
Congrats, Takashi Miike, you did it again!
