Bravely Default new trailer from last week’s Tokyo Game Show. Everything about this RPG just look so great (though I’ve heard its battles can get a bit a tedious).
The only thing I can find to complain about is Square Enix reusing footage for most of this clip’s first minute. It’s worth sticking with, though, because there’s a lot of gold after that first minute — pirates, outfits for different classes, and awesome looking special attacks.

Slime hats! Joystiq’s Jordan Mallory spotted these in Square Enix’s TGS shopping area.
The stuffed caps sell for ¥2,000 each ($25.63), and I’m not sure I could pull it off. By which I mean I’m not sure I’d ever remove it once I put it on.

Oh neat, there’s a life-size Phoenix Wright statue at Capcom’s Tokyo Game Show booth for Ace Attorney 5, probably because the company couldn’t find someone to point into the distance for eight straight hours.
Also neat: attendees get to play the game in a replica courtroom (it looks a bit dilapidated because AA5 revolves around somebody setting up the bomb in the courtroom).

3DS LL/XL’s Circle Pad Pro is big, yeah yeah yeah. Nikkei Trendy took close-up shots of the unit, which Capcom is using to demo Monster Hunter 4 at TGS.
Speaking of Monhun 4, new trailer! This one has online play, so NEW PLAN: everyone buy Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on both platforms so we definitely get this one.

New Fantasy Life trailer from TGS. Even if this 3DS game trailer had no video at all, I would be irredeemably charmed right now. This relaxing music is exactly what I needed at this point in my day. Hope it helps you too!

Kunio-kun sticker sheet. Arc System Works handed these out at TGS to anyone who played through the demo of the new 3DS Kunio game, which you’d better believe I did! While there were hours-long lines for the Persona fighting game at Arc’s booth, I was able to saunter right up to this game with zero wait.
I’ll have a preview of the actual game up on Joystiq soon, and I’ll mention it here when that happens.

New Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney TGS trailer. The new 3D models for Phoenix and Layton are quite nice in motion! The whole game, unsurprisingly, looks hot.
An English-language press release for this 3DS game was found at TGS last week, implying a Western release is in the works. It seems obvious that Level-5 would consider it, what with this being the top-voted entry in the publisher’s poll for which games its fans are most excited about (Ni no Kuni for PS3, the wrong version, was the survey’s second most popular item and will come to the U.S. in early 2012).

New Monster Hunter Tri-G screenshots (click for larger images). Capcom, please find a way to bring this to the States, and integrate some online multiplayer because most of us will be playing this solo otherwise.
The more I see of this game, the more I’m convinced this isn’t a second-rate port. Did you see the long presentation Capcom held at Tokyo Game Show earlier this week for the title? It has a great segment demonstrating a lot of the customization options for the touch panel (and how you can use the virtual D-pad to control the camera, if you’re not using the Expansion Slide Pad).
[Update: Capcom’s comment on fans wanting Monster Hunter Tri-G and Monster Hunter 4 to release in the West? “Noted, guys. Stay tuned.”]

Though it won’t let anyone try them out with actual games, Capcom is allowing Tokyo Game Show attendees to get their hands on the upcoming 3DS Expansion Slide Pad.
Most people seem to agree that it’s not the best looking piece of kit, but if you’re curious to hear about how the peripheral feels — especially if you plan to play supported games like MH Tri-G, RE: Revelations, MGS: Snake Eater 3D, Ace Kombat 3D, Dynasty Warriors Vs., and Kingdom Hearts 3D with it — I’ve gathered impressions on the 3DS Expansion Slide Pad from several sites.
Neku Sakuraba appearing alongside Sora in Kingdom Hearts 3D (Dream Drop Distance). Though Square Enix has yet to answer fans’ prayers and put out a sequel to The World Ends With You, it has plopped the DS RPG’s hero into the next Kingdom Hearts game, according to a demo shown at Tokyo Game Show.
1UP’s Jeremy Parish posted impressions of the demo:
“Neku appears as a guest character in Sora’s side of the TGS demo — though not a playable guest. Both Neku and his rival/friend/frienemy Riku team up with captured dream-monsters this time around rather than fighting alongside licensed characters. Neku’s role is more that of the Disney-world guests from previous games.
He shows up, reveals that he’s caught in a “game,” leaving him 43 minutes to win or die. Naturally, he asks Sora to be his partner but ultimately decides the tousle-haired protagonist is ‘a weird guy’ and takes off. Sora follows, riding rails in pursuit of Neku, but quickly encounters a boss battle set in a cul-de-sac of Traverse Town.”
Hoping to see Neku/Sora fanart versions of this now.

Subtitled Bravely Default app, augmented reality, and up-skirt shots. This footage was filmed off the free preview app Square Enix released via the Nintendo 3DS’s eShop in Japan. It starts off by showing the gorgeous Akihiro Hino-designed graphics in a mostly non-interactive area.
Afterward, there’s an augmented reality segment featuring the game’s primary female character asking for your help, Princess Leia-style. Naturally, people are taking advantage of this feature to look at the poor woman’s underwear.
