It’s all happening. Shaun the Sheep! Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers! Both at E3 thanks to D3 Publishing.

In addition visitors to the company at the show will get their hands on Bangai-O Spirits, Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2, BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE The Game (?), Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 and Puzzle Quest: Galactrix.

Fair enough. Press release after the link.

Treasure’s Bangai-O Spirits is to be handled by D3 in America, the publisher just confirmed. The DS shooter is slated for the second quarter.

As reported this morning, you’ll be able to create levels and transmit them to other consoles through headphones and proper Spectrum-style squeaky noises. It has to be awesome. No news on a European release as yet. Press release after the link.

According to this, the upcoming Bangai-O Spirits for DS will have a level editor. There’s a hands-on with the upcoming Treasure game throuh he link.

That’s not all. Apparently you’ll be able to transmit levels to other DS users by sound.

“Once you’re done your creation, you can save it to cartridge and send it to other Bangai-O Spirits owners in a very unique way: through the power of sound,” said IGN. “Using old-school modem-like technology, you’ll convert your levels into a sound that other Bangai-O Spirits carts will recognize. Place a set of headphone earpieces to a DS microphone, plug in the 1/8th inch jack to the host, and send that file off through high-pitch whines. It’s similar to the way that we Commodore 64 and TRS-80 programmers used to save and load our created programs, and here it makes a return in a contemporary game design.”

Geek essential, number one, 2008. No release date yet.

According to this, Bangai-O Spirits is going to be releasing for DS in America on March 19. Good news about a great game. DS-owning importers should be mindful of the date: it’s made by Treasure, which should really be all you need to know, and there’s not much chance of this making it to Europem if we’re being honest. Shots here.
