Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land We know Mario Galaxy is due for release on November 12 in the US. But what about everywhere else? What about Japan, when will they see it? What about Europe, will they get it at all? From the latest Famitsu, here’s what Miyamoto had to say regarding the game’s Japanese release date: Now, we’re making games with hopes of making a simultaneous worldwide release. But, as it’s Japanese people making the game, and we’re making it in Japanese…right? [laughs]
OK. Little nutty! But two things stand out. First, Nintendo making a game due for simultaneous worldwide release? Lies. Second, sounds like Japan might get it a bit early. And as a bonus third, if we choose to believe their LIES, a “simultaneous worldwide release” should mean Europe and Australia don’t get it too far behind. Maybe.
Haze is one of the titles that really benefited from their E3 showing, getting a lot of positive buzz at the show. But Miyamoto wasn’t digging it, as pointed out in this month’s Edge magazine: “Cliffy B dropped by to see Haze…He liked the drugs and the violence. Mr. Miyamoto dropped by to see Haze – and he didn’t.
If it makes the Haze crew feel any better, they should just remember that if Miyamoto were making drug-heavy FPSs, they’d all be out of work. Violent, drug-heavy sidescrollers where magical mushrooms can cause hallucinations of super powers—that’s Miyamoto’s territory.
