When Yuke's Company of America releases screenshots, they release a hell of a lot of screenshots. They've unleashed so many screens for their upcoming top-down space adventure game Evasive Space for WiiWare that we've had to split them into two different galleries, one containing shots from Act 1 of the game, and another containing shots from Act 2. Enough screenshots that you could probably just print them out and play through both levels, flipbook style. Either they are extremely proud of High Voltage Software's work on the title, or someone in the screenshot department has an itchy capture finger. Check out Act 1 before the jump, and Act 2 comes tumbling after.

Cardinal Arc Portable is coming to North America! YUKE's Company of America have announced that a PSP version of the hit Japanese PS2 title Cardinal Arc: The Neverland Card War is coming our way this October. The card-based strategy RPG revolves around the Dominators, wielders of Neverland's Spectral Cards. You play a young Dominator named Galahad who seeks to banish an evil god and end the war between humans and demons that threatens to tear the world apart.

The PSP version of the game is enhanced with new cut scenes, updated sounds and graphics, and all new ad hoc multiplayer modes that allow two players to battle it out in real-time. YUKE's says the game is "one of the finest card-strategy games ever created for the PSP", but of course they're biased. Find out for yourself this spring!

The screenshots I posted earlier this month of Yuke's Double D Dodgeball for Xbox Live Arcade did not do the game justice. Now they've released a trailer form the title, giving us a much better feel for what's going on in the game. It looks like a total blast, with relatively simple graphics augmented by XBLA's trademark glowy lighting effects. And hey, it supports the Xbox Live Camera!

As revealed at the end of the trailer, Double D Dodgeball is coming to Xbox Live July 30th.

Hungry for hot dodgeball action on your Xbox 360 yet completely turned off by the concept of Pirates VS Ninjas? Yuke's Double D Dodgeball is a decidedly retro take on the sport, with simplistic graphics belying relatively deep, strategic gameplay. There are a variety of different character types, each with unique shot types, and arenas for both Western sidelines and Eastern outfield rules. With support for up to 12 players, it looks like one of those games that doesn't need flashy graphics to be a ton of fun. Hit up the gallery below for shots of the different arenas, characters, and some wallpapers thrown in for good measure. Look for Yuke's Double D Dodgeball on Xbox Live Arcade this summer.
