Nintendo has revealed the first trailer for the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie. The company held a Nintendo Direct to premiere the trailer, which went live at 1:05 PM PT (4:05 PM ET). The presentation aired simultaneously at New York Comic Con 2022. You can watch the trailer below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KydqdKKyGEk Before showing the trailer, the Nintendo Direct aired messages from several of the people involved with the project. Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto, Illumination's Chris Meledandri, and Chris Pratt and Jack Black, who voice Mario and Bowser, respectively, each shared some of their thoughts on the movie. The Super Mario Bros. Movie trailer opens with Bowser's huge, fiery castle landing in an icy kingdom. Bowser and his army of Koopas attack the penguins living there and burn down the castle to find a Power Star. Then, we see Mario shoot out of a warp pipe, landing on the outskirts of the Mushroom Kingdom. While trying to figure out where he is, he meets Toad (Keegan-Michael Key), who leads him to the kingdom itself. A list of much of the voice cast is shown, followed by a short scene where Luigi (Charlie Day) is chased across a river of lava and into a castle by a horde of Dry Bones. The trailer ends with a reconfirmation of the movie's April 7 release date. Following the trailer, Meledandri and Miyamoto thank viewers for watching. Miyamoto then mentions that the finishing touches are being put on the movie, and says to look forward to a future trailer. The Super Mario Bros. Movie comes to theaters worldwide on April 7, 2023.

Aqua, one of the main characters in KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World, is making her appearance on the arcade rhythm game Sound Voltex. Konami revealed that it has added Aqua-related content for Sound Voltex: Exceed Gear that players can unlock for a limited time. The company has also added the anime show's first opening theme, "fantastic dreamer," as a playable song. Players in Japan can access the Premium Generator to purchase in-game content related to Aqua. The main highlight is Aqua's appearance as a Nemsys Crew that will greet the player in the game's menus. The lineup also includes 10 Voiced Stamps and 20 Slide Show Touch Panels based on Aqua's famous pictures. While Sound Voltex is also available in several other countries, the announcement has a fine print notifying players that content related to KonoSuba's Aqua will be available exclusively in Japan.
Sound Voltex is an arcade rhythm game with additional mixing effects from knob and button inputs. Konami has been regularly holding public contests to add user-submitted songs to the game series. The company also occasionally adds tracks from other IPs, such as Toby Fox's Undertale. Sound Voltex: Exceed Gear is available in arcades and on PCs via Konami Amusement Game Station. Players of the arcade version in Japan have until October 16, 2022, to unlock content related to KonoSuba's Aqua.

Capcom revealed that players will be able to customize their challenge screens in Street Fighter 6. The feature will allow players to change the portraits and effects that appear before online matches. In a short clip, Capcom showed off a few of the possible combinations for Luke, Ryu, Juri, and others. The challenge screen appears when players fight in online matches against other players and shows off what character they will be facing. The screen appears to have several elements to customize, including a background with possible animated effects, effect color, and, most importantly, the character portrait. Notably, Capcom stated that players can choose and combine these elements, implying that the customization feature will be optional. https://twitter.com/StreetFighter/status/1577735493503942657 Capcom's tweet showcasing the feature gives a brief look at a few of the portrait variations. Luke, for example, comes with a default portrait, a key illustration-style portrait, and a retro pixel art-style portrait. Players can then add custom background effects, such as animated flames, stars, or paint splatters. Additionally, as shown in the final collection of challenge screens, players can choose the color of these effects. You can get a better look at each of the featured Street Fighter 6 customized challenge screens in the screenshots below: [gallery columns="4" ids="936866,936863,936862,936865" link="file"] Street Fighter 6 will release for the PS4, PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S sometime in 2023.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, October 6, 2022 6:30 PM  A few days ago, fans of the 2019 RPG Disco Elysium learned that three individuals, namely Aleksander Rostov, Robert Kurvitz, and Helen Hindpere, all left developer ZA/UM for mostly unknown reasons. This news came courtesy of Martin Luiga, the editor of Disco Elysium, who stated that all three left through "involuntary" means and hinted that studio investors might have had a hand in their departure. This naturally resulted in alarm among fans who wanted to learn more about why this happened to such key developers. Well, just today, and as spotted by PC Gamer, Luigi elaborated further on the situation, claiming that someone within ZA/UM fired the Disco Elysium developers "on false premises." Luiga shared this information in an interview with Gamepressure, where he suggested that the incident led to trauma among the three individuals and the people they were close to. He could not relay all of the information he had on hand, presumably due to an NDA, and he doe... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, October 6, 2022 5:30 PM  Babylon's Fall has officially gone down as perhaps the biggest blunder that PlatinumGames has faced. It received a sound thrashing for its cynical live service elements and overall poor design, and only saw an infinitesimal amount of current players throughout its lifespan. This abysmal performance culminated in the announcement that Square Enix would take the game's servers offline in February 2023, not even a full year after its launch. PlatinumGames mostly remained tight-lipped ever since this announcement, but CEO Atsushi Inaba finally spoke about the impending closure of Babylon's Fall today, saying the developers feel "extremely sorry." In an interview with VGC, Inaba stated that he couldN't talk about certain aspects of Babylon's Fall's development due to the studio's publishing agreement with Square Enix. He can only discuss the closure itself, which he acknowledged may have led to disappointment or even anger among fans. ... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, October 6, 2022 5:00 PM  Valve announced on their Twitter that starting today you can buy a Steam Deck, sans reservation. "Order one now, and we'll ship it to you now," the tweet proudly proclaims. Three years ago it might have seemed laughable that this would be a major accomplishment to be lauded. Now, however, it's newsworthy. Valve is one among many companies that have struggled to keep their gaming devices in stock over the past two years, but it seems to have finally to have caught up with demand. This comes after Valve had announced that Steam Deck production was ramping up, and clearly they weren't exaggerating. Six months after release, the company is meeting demand for the Steam Deck, which is no small feat. Very quickly after reservations opened up for the Steam Deck, it was sold out for months after it's eventual launch. Deck, meet Dock The Steam Deck has certainly been successful, and is a great alternative to buying a full gaming PC or laptop. Also annou... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, October 6, 2022 4:30 PM  Unknown Worlds has made the decision to remove Cargo Run Contracts from their Early Access title Moonbreaker. Cargo Run is a game mode in Moonbreaker where players progress from battle to battle, gaining rewards as they win. Each game is a standard game of Moonbreaker. You fight your opponent's squad and can progress to the next match once you defeat their captain. If you fail, your run ends. Starting a Cargo Run requires a Contract to start. During your run, you pick up cargo, which is a power boosts for your squad, as well as Blanks — a form of currency in the game. Contract killers What are Contracts, and why are they being removed? Well, Contracts are essentially another form of currency in In Moonbreaker, and players felt that it was unfair to lock this mode behind a paywall, given that they already put money into the game. In a community post, developer Unknown Worlds revealed that it is removing Contracts, not just from Cargo Run but out of Moonbreaker altoget... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Thursday, October 6, 2022 4:00 PM  Say what you will about the popularity of tenkeyless (TKL) and 60% keyboards, but full-size gaming keyboards will always have a place in the market. Corsair is back with another offering for PC enthusiasts with the new Corsair K100 Air Wireless mechanical keyboard. It's an enthusiast's keyboard geared, in my opinion, to the professional that also wants to game without the need for multiple boards. The Corsair K100 Air Wireless is an ultra-thin low-profile board that's as enjoyable to type and work on as it is to game. But at a retail price of $279.99, it may be out of the range for many based on what you get. Corsair K100 Air Wireless design, specs, and features Sitting at just 17mm at its thickest point, the Corsair K100 Air Wireless features low-profile Cherry MX Tactile switches with a 0.8mm actuation distance and a 1.8mm total distance.
