More Circle Pad Pro action to come with the 3DS XL

More Circle Pad Pro action to come with the 3DS XL photo



The Circle Pad Pro was hardly the most well-received handheld accessory to grace retail shelves, so it comes as no surprise that gamers are questioning the existence of a revised version for the upcoming 3DS XL system. Of course, with a few games already being compatible with it, you can't really be too surprised that Nintendo are trying to prevent potential complaints from fans of Resident Evil, Kingdom Hearts and Monster Hunter that decide to upgrade. 

This also means the argument that the 3DS XL should have had a second circle pad has resurfaced. Sure, the 3DS should have had a second pad to begin with, but releasing a second system with this built in? Not a good idea, unless you really want those that paid for the original to jump ship. Still, there are many different and valid opinions, so feel free to discuss in the comments. The rest of you, take cover!

You should probably back Channel A on Kickstarter

With Kickstarter being swamped primarily with projects by those in English-speaking countries, it's hard to find something on there that we would consider talking about on Japanator. Colour me surprised when Channel A appears...

I called it: AKB rage video a hoax

Remember when that one AKB48 fan seemed to go a little bit crazy in video format at the news of Yuki "Yukirin" Kashiwagi's alleged indiscretions? Back in that post, I wrote that I "sincerely hope that this an attempt to paro...

Review: Final Fantasy: All the Bravest

Square Enix, what are you doing?  There have certainly been some interesting additions to the Final Fantasy universe of late, and after initially breaking the hearts of 3DS owners seeking out a localised Bravely Default,...

No plans to release the Wii Mini outside of Canada

The Wii Mini is puzzling. I'd be lying if I said it didn't look neat, but it's also kind of a shame that the Gamecube compatibility and online parts have been stripped from the console. Can't complain when it'll only cost you...

Facepalm: Demon's Score is way cheaper in Japan

Here's another entry for you to put in the annals of "What the hell, Square Enix?!": It looks like the company that gave us Final Fantasy and a ton of strange decisions, has made yet another one, for it seems like they r...

PSA: PS Vita games will be cheaper if you buy digital

Hey! Do you like saving money? Do you like buying video games legally?  Do you like downloading your video games? Do you like the PlayStation Vita? Do you like downloading PS Vita games legally and saving money doing so?...

Um, nevermind: No more free flights to Japan!

Remember how Japan said that they would be giving 10,000 free flights to foreigners in 2012? Well, not so much anymore. Japan's national tourism agency had high hopes for boosting visits to Japan with some free flights, but t...

Crunchyroll is apparently doing quite well for itself

I know not everyone out there is so hot on streaming due to the varying video quality you often find with these kinds of services. In my personal opinion though, I think streaming is absolutely the right direction the industr...

Collectible pin badges! Oh, and an expensive red jacket

If you've ever watched Akira, you'll know that it features three major things that you would absolutely love to own. Kaneda's awesome motorbike, his equally awesome leather jacket, or the ability to make people explode. Fortu...
