~~Bandai Namco recently put up a rather interesting job posting for “Smash Bros. 6″

~~. Although it was taken down after being discovered by various outlets, it mentioned that the game will be released next year on Wii U and 3DS.

Here’s what you should know about the job listing:

- Project currently being worked on by 120 staffers



- Number expected to increase to 200



- Team needs programmers for various roles



- They’ll be put into different teams to handle characters, stages, 3D programming, motion, game mode, mini-games, menu, UI, and more



- Message on the recruitment page:





“Social games are currently a big hit, but the current state of job opportunities for making retail games is critically low. In the midst of this, this will likely be your only chance to be part of a development project for the Smash Bros. [series], which has surpassed a total of 10 million in worldwide sales. And Bandai Namco believes that now is the best time to recruit programmers for retail games.”

- Only 3 Smash Bros. games thus far



- Wii U/3DS games would count as the fourth



- The two games have generally been thought of as “Smash Bros. 4″



- “6″ could be a typo



- Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS may have been delayed into 2015



- Another possibility is that Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS are the fourth and fifth in the series, and Smash Bros. 6 is an entirely different/updated version of the game being released next year



- Tatsuya Matsumura, a consultant who uploaded the ad, seems to still have all of his other recruitment ads live on the website



- Matsumura appears to have been in the business of a career consultant to connect developers and software companies with programmers and engineers since 2011



He currently specializes in getting people in touch with gaming and software developers, and has successfully helped the recruitment of over 2,000 people thus far

So Nintendo trademarked this:

~~Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. Trademarked by Nintendo

(Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace)

Wonderful 101 sequel? Or 3DS eshop game?

I don't think it's a Square Enix collaberation. All these are separate trademarks from separate companies:

Kadokawa Games tradmarked Gods War Frontier and The Lost Child

Nintendo trademarked Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace (filed April 2)

Square Enix trademarked Journey of the Cursed King (filed April 1) and Mechanical Apartheid (filed April 1)

I really need to play something other than Diablo. All I can think of now is DMG/TOUGH/HEAL stats and percentages. I was thinking of grabbing Dragon's Dogma yesterday, but I found $44-45 or so a bit steep considering it's an old-ish game so I passed. It was the Dark Arisen version, though.

Crunchyroll is awesome, BTW. It's cheaper than Netflix and has a ton of stuff. It also has day one streaming with Japan in the newest series. I started watching Hajime No Ippo: The Fighting or whatever it's called. Pretty good, but the art looks awkward. Dunno if it's just me or if they changed artists.

He's still in mourning over the loss of a wonderful GameUnder.net podcast segment regarding classic PC adventure games. I'm sad too.

I'm the same but with Anime. There are games on all platforms I own but dont play, Zelda and Fire Emblem 3DS, Skyrim, AC4, Halo 4 and Sleeping Dogs and tons more. I'm fairly apathetic to gaming at the moment. I did plan to buy 2 consoles as I always have since the Genesis/SNES days, but now I feel soured to the whole industry. A lot of that has to do with the Wii U boning, if third parties expect me to buy a whole new console to play their software (EA and others) then I just wont buy your games. If they release on a plaform I own maybe. X1 and PS4 are boring the heck out of me and there are only a few exclusive Wii U titles I'm interested in. That narrows my choices and saves me money, and I'll need that money for Anime Blurays Grinning

Yeah, gaming hasn't been much fun to read about lately. I kinda wish I had waited longer before getting my PS4. Tomb Raider DE was worth it, but nothing else on the console has held my interest.

I never thought this would be the case, but I actually prefer manga to anime. I found out the other day that my public library has all 30+ volumes of the Fairy Tale manga. I'm reading volume 1 now, and have 2 and 3 on hold. I was going to just buy them for my Kindle, but it would cost me nearly $300 to do so! GASP  Now I can read them all for free. Hells yeah. Grinning

I was looking at manga in the book store the other day, I just cannot bring myself to read what are essentially comics, in black and white. And reading from back to front feels obnoxiously annoying to me. Also, the volumes are very small, when I would want a complete collection. Maybe if they did a large size, hardback book sized for instance they could fit it all into one volume.
