Every little glimpse I catch in tweets and forum posts has me hoping for a not-too-distant localized release. Following our look at Nintendo’s unusedPrincess Bowser concept, here’s another fun what-if scenario I wish would’ve made it intoSuper Mario Odyssey: casual-wear Rosalina strumming a guitar.

Team Ninja is riding high It feels like Team Ninja is finally back to its old self. 2005’sNinja Gaiden Black(an amazing upgrade on the back of its 2004 predecessor) was its crowning achievement, and beating it on Master Ninja was one of the most fun journeys I’ve ever taken in my gaming career. Since then they’ve dragged a bit, lost one of their marquee members in Itagaki, and have banked on theDead or Alivefranchise while they dabble in the occasionally good project likeHyrule Warriors....

Multiple attempts to make the fantasy-comedy story into a movie had failed, and it was then decided to turn it into a television show instead.
