Circle to open Kingdom’s Item Shop in 3DS eShop on August 18th


Posted on August 13, 2016 by Jason Nason

Circle Entertainment is bringing Kingdom’s Item Shop to North America next week. Kingdom’s Item Shop, developed and released by PUMO in Japan in 2014, is a game that simulate running an item shop in a Fantasy Role-Playing Game Universe.

In the game you are the new owner of an item shop. Your goal is to run your property and make it the most popular item shop of the Kingdom. To become a popular owner, you’ll need to explore dungeons for ingredients, find new composition recipes, compose items, and sell items to whom in need.

The game seems like an interesting concept, especially if you’d much rather take on a less adventurous role in the world of fantasy RPGs. I mean, what does that shop owner in that village I keep coming back to for potions do all day while I’m out saving the world?

Pokémon Sun and Moon have heartwarming ads in Japan


Posted on July 13, 2016 by Jason Nason

You know Pokémon is kind of a global phenomenon, as has been co clearer recently with the explosion of Pokémon GO around the world, and it’s not even “officially” available everywhere yet.

The series got its roots in the handheld RPG format. Since the first game was released twenty years ago, millions of people have played one or more of the games. As someone who has been around since the very first game (I still have my original box and game cart of Pokémon red) I almost forget sometimes that there are millions of new kids who have yet to discover the game. And while the upcoming Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon games will not be my first Pokémon game to be sure, to many kids this will be the first game they play.

And that’s not lost on Nintendo.
