The Croods A New Age

Croods-2-A-new-age-movie-poster.jpg

 

Information: 

The Croods have survived their fair share of dangers and disasters, from fanged prehistoric beasts to surviving the end of the world, but now they will face their biggest challenge of all: another family


The Croods need a new place to live. So, the first prehistoric family sets off into the world in search of a safer place to call home. When they discover an idyllic walled-in paradise that meets all their needs, they think their problems are solved … except for one thing. Another family already lives there: the Bettermans. 

The Bettermans (emphasis on the “better”)—with their elaborate tree house, amazing inventions and irrigated acres of fresh produce—are a couple of steps above the Croods on the evolutionary ladder. When they take the Croods in as the world’s first houseguests, it isn’t long before tensions escalate between the cave family and the modern family. 

Just when all seems lost, a new threat will propel both families on an epic adventure outside the safety of the wall, one that will force them to embrace their differences, draw strength from each other and forge a future together. 

The Croods: A New Age features the voice talent of returning stars Nicolas Cage as Grug Crood, Catherine Keener as Ugga Crood, Emma Stone as their daughter, Eep; Ryan Reynolds as Eep’s boyfriend, Guy; Clark Duke (Hot Tub Time Machine) as Thunk and Cloris Leachman as Gran. They’re joined by new stars Peter Dinklage (HBO’s Game of Thrones) as Phil Betterman, Leslie Mann (Blockers) as Hope Betterman, and Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars: Episode VIII-The Last Jedi) as their daughter, Dawn. 

The film is directed by Joel Crawford, who has worked on multiple DreamWorks Animation films, including Trolls and the Kung Fu Panda franchise, and is produced by Mark Swift (Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted).


Nintendo 3DS / NEW 3DS Video Games

 

No 3DS video games are scheduled to release this month. The Nintendo 3DS may have exclusive e-shop games released within the month that are not known at this time.


3D Blu-rays

Botanica-3D.jpg

Release Date:

November 10th

Information: 

There are over 1800 botanical gardens located throughout the world. Botanica is one special garden located in the middle of the U.S. in Wichita, Kansas. Filmed natively in stereoscopic 3D for high definition screens, you will be taken there from your seat to encounter the beauty and inspiration first-hand. Journey through each of the gardens with stereo images that will take you along for a relaxing and unique presentation. Experience the sights and sounds of the gardens mixed with personal recordings of flute music made with modern anasazi-style flutes that are carefully woven into the ambient soundtrack. In 1931 a team led by Earl H. Morris discovered four wooden, preserved flutes near Prayer Rock Valley in the four corners region of Arizona burried inside a cave known as Broken Flute Cave. They were dated between 620-680 AD. The flutes had 6 holes, 3 and 3 and were end blown, making them difficult to play. Carefully mixed with the ambiant sounds of Botanica are recordings made with 5 different modern-made Anasaszi-style flutes from different flute makers and with modern electronic effects which often enhance the haunting sounds from the ancient past. This project was filmed in 2014 with additional footage of two newer gardens added filmed in 2019 and 2020. Please visit N3D.studio for more information and up-coming 3D Blu-ray productions. Visit Youtube channel N3D.studio and subscribe. A donation is made to Botanica for each copy sold. VISIT BOTANICA OR YOUR LOCAL BOTANICAL GARDEN TODAY!

Production of Nintendo 3DS has been Discontinued

Production of Nintendo 3DS has been Discontinued

3DS-Production-discontinued.JPG

Via Nintendo’s Japanese website the announcement has been made that the production of the Nintendo 3DS has been discontinued. The image above is from Google Translate website .

This information was not mentioned via press release or any other official announcement from Nintendo.

What does this mean ?

Essentially the 3DS family of systems ( New 3DS / New 2DS / 2DS , 3DS XL ) is no longer being manufactured by Nintendo. We assume this also applies to other regions of the world. You might be able to find new systems in stores now ( September 21st 2020) but the hardware will not be replaced once all the previously manufactured systems have been shipped out and bought by consumers. This may take a few weeks or months to totally sell out of the new product. It just depends on supply and demand of individual markets.

What about 3DS online gaming and the 3DS E-Shop ?

Currently (September 21st 2020) Nintendo is still supporting the e-shop so you can still download digital software. You can currently play 3DS games online via Nintendo’s online services. Currently we don’t know when the e-shop will close or when the online services will end. Nintendo previously announced the Nintendo DSi discontinuation date and gave everyone several months to prepare for the conclusion of online services for the system. Nintendo gave everyone very specific final dates to make final video game purchases and to play games online. Nintendo is expected to announce the discontinuation date of online services in the near future (probably next year ).

In a statement to gamesindustry.biz Nintendo said the following :

“We currently have no plans to end any existing online services for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. Online play and Nintendo eShop will continue to be available and it will be possible to access and redownload all previously purchased content in the foreseeable future.”

( Source )

Of course they would say that. This statement isn’t surprising because they would want to announce this on their own schedule. Simply put the 3DS e-shop and online services can’t go on indefintelty and sometime in the future it will end.

Why is this happening ?

The Nintendo 3DS was originally released in 2011. The New Nintendo 3DS released in 2015. In recent sales data the Nintendo 3DS has decreased 88% while the Nintendo Switch has increased 11.1%.

The Nintendo 3DS family of systems (including 2DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, 3DS, 3DS XL) is no longer doing well enough to justify continued production. 3DS’s time has passed and Nintendo is moving on.

With this news I expect the Nintendo 3DS family of systems to continue to loose digital game support. The Nintendo 3DS still occasionally gets new game releases each week but the amount of games have slowed to a trickle. The Nintendo 3DS has given players around the world many excellent video games that can be played in 3D and 2D. This day was inventible but yet I am still sad to hear this new.
