It's no secret that I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan. Hell I even named my cat after Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII. Back in the day the Final Fantasy games were on Nintendo consoles and they were great but when Nintendo didn't make the switch to disk based games the franchise moved to the Play Station. Now Nintendo has disk based consoles yet we don't see many new Final Fantasy's for them. In all honesty it doesn't bother me at all, but I do want to know why they haven't brought any of the main titles to the Wii, Wii U, or 3DS. The only reason I could think of is legal reasons or that Nintendo's consoles are held back by it's software. I know a lot of people will be mad that I said this but Nintendo consoles are almost always a step behind in technology. Perhaps there systems just can't do what Square Enix wants. Despite this I wish that Nintendo would get something because I would like to see my favorite game company have games with my favorite game franchise again.

Reggie is opened to the idea of including him in the next Super Smash Brothers game. He has recently tweeted:


" My #FinalSmash in Super Smash Bros. would be the MY BODY IS READY SLAM #Regginator"


Reggie has also said that the series creator, Masahiro Sakurai, might consider adding him if the petition gets 100,000 signatures.


The petition has already reached over 34,000 signatures.
Reggie's final smash would be called “MY BODY IS READY SLAM.”


You can now go set yourself up with a Pre-order of Bravely Default for the Nintendo 3DS on Amazon or at Gamestop.

The long awaited Youtube Application is finally available on the Nintendo 3DS eShop. The application is
really buggy and the video quality is lacking abit but at least it's finally on our favorite handheld console.










Okay, let me begin saying that this particular type of game is NOT in any way interesting to me. So don't get the wrong idea and for starters I wasn't the one who even made the game. Of it doesn't surprise me that a game like this came out of Japan and understandable why the game will never be localized...


But that doesn't take away the fact that the game actually looks pretty awesome. The art style is really cool. Not because of the boobs... 


If you want to see more of the game you can watch the trailer.




















Today Nintendo had made some changes to Miiverse. This could potentially have been because of the upcoming 3DS version of the Nintendo Wii U's Social Network. The 3DS version will be coming over sometime in December.


The update consists of the following;


Now able to display more than one community at once, filter the communities by categories, and a minor change to the profile page.


Tales of the Abyss was ported over to the Nintendo 3DS which was originally for the Playstation 2. I haven't played the PS2 version but from the looks of it, it's a pretty good damn ported version.

You're Luke, a son from the royal family of kimlasca, and he's never stepped one foot out of the manor. Not to mention that he lost all his memories 7 years ago. As he was out training with Master Van a mysterious character by the name of Tear comes out of nowhere and tries to attack Van.
I won't go into the plot anymore to avoid potential spoilers. It'll unfold as you go on, as a typical RPG should.



The battle style is completely different than your typical turned base strategies. It mixes more with a hack and slash style. You only control the person that you're playing as. So you cannot select attacks for your allies that are out in the battle.
It keeps the battles feeling fresh as you can play as your teamates during battles, you can't switch during battle so you'll have to select them before you encounter 
an enemy. It has a variety of close range and long range characters.




One thing that I dislike about the fact you can't switch during battle is that when the character you're playing as dies you have to sit watching the rest of the battle go on. This is especially annoying when you're in the middle of a boss battle.


You can throw away all of you hatred towards random encounters as the enemies are visible on both the overworld and in the dungeons. You can easily choose wether or not you want to battle. But, level grinding is kind of vital in order to progress without any trouble.



The game's story is kind of lengthy so it will definitely keep you busy.
The overworld has quite abit to explore ranging from dungeons to cities. Later in the game you can even travel by sea.





If you're looking for an RPG on the 3DS, Tales of Abyss is definitely worth the buy. I give Tales of Abyss an 7.5/10.
