Makoto Asada is developing an unannounced Xbox One game at Mages/5pb, having left his job as head of shoot-em-up specialist Cave to work on the next-gen project. Asada moved on from Cave back in June after five years at the studio, having helped produce Guwange, EspGaluda 2, Akai Katana, and Deathsmiles among plenty of other games.

Details on Asada's Xbox One game are sparse, but Dengeki Online (via Gematsu) does report it'll be packaged, and that more info should be forthcoming shortly.

Mages also announced it's publishing Constant C, a 2D action-puzzle game that was one of the 100 recently Greenlighted on Steam. Mages is bringing Constant C to Xbox 360 as a downloadable game in early 2014, although it's unclear if that'll be limited to Japan or not.

Former Cave head Asada working on Xbox One game at Mages originally appeared on Joystiq on Fri, 06 Sep 2013 10:00:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

A federal judge on Thursday dismissed Stan Lee Media’s multibillion-dollar lawsuit against Disney, potentially ending its long and confusing legal battle to claim ownership of Marvel characters co-created by Stan Lee.

Good news, Stargate fans! Original movie director Roland Emmerich wants to make more! The bad news? He doesn't want to continue the massive original universe as seen in SG-1, Atlantis, Universe, Infinity, and The Legend of Curly's Gold, but will reboot the franchise with a new movie trilogy.

Someone at Marvel has just made a lot of people happy. And he hasn't even said anything definite. Hit the jump to find out what's got us so excited.

National Beverage, a small-time American soft-drink manufacturer, reported yesterday that its earnings last quarter were not very good, chastening the company. Or as CEO Nick Caporella put it in a press release, “There can be no allowable regrets in business or fumbles on the field (deck) of Endeavor – none . . . (no one even knows how to practice them).”

We don’t understand what that means, either. National Beverage has issued the strangest quarterly earnings report we’ve ever seen. Below you can read the entire press release, filled with rambling Caporella quotes such as, ”Look at our track record over the past 20 years—no mental degradation has occurred!” (The company’s 10-Q filing, which has its financial statements, is normal.)

It’s not the first time Caporella has mouthed off in a company filing, but this may be the weirdest example. National Beverage, which had revenue of $172 million last quarter, is best known for its Faygo and Shasta sodas. Caporella founded the company in 1985. A spokeswoman for the company didn’t return a call seeking comment. Here’s the entire release:

 

NATIONAL BEVERAGE REPORTS
LESS THAN TYPICAL RESULTS
FIRST QUARTER FY2014

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, September 5, 2013 . . . National Beverage Corp. (NASDAQ:FIZZ) today reported results for the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2014.

For the comparable first quarters FY2014 vs. FY2013:

● Revenues decreased 6% to $172 million
● Net income decreased 16% to $12 million
● Earnings per share decreased 16% to $.26

“Should we have the most credible reason for these results (and we could have), would it make a difference?” asked Nick A. Caporella, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer on a recent management call. “Does it make us feel less contrite relative to the credibility of the justification?” he queried. “There can be no allowable regrets in business or fumbles on the field (deck) of Endeavor – none . . . (no one even knows how to practice them),” quipped Caporella.

“From mega retailers to soft drink giants, the summer of ’13 will symbolically claim its victims! Consequently, the culmination of nervousness of a ‘whiplashed’ consumer to the ‘knee jerk’ reaction of Big Cola . . . all segments of soft drink sales were affected – as retailers and soft drink companies subsequently disclosed. The lowering of prices being Big Cola’s response – further complicated the situation! Cooler weather compounded already weakened consumer spirits,” indicated Caporella.

“The consumer revolted in anger to yo-yo pricing; Big Cola’s pricing tactics didn’t stop the sales and market share declines. Yesteryear’s shopper had higher disposable income and a more comfortable, content state of mind; discount pricing resulted in greater single purchases – NOT this tense summer of ’13!” Caporella continued.

“Maybe everyone learned an invaluable lesson – ‘No instant fix for a distraught consumer!’

Good soft drinks are to the human race what sunshine is to a picnic! Thankfully, after the Fourth of July – normalcy returned to most markets and . . . hopefully attitudes,” Caporella stated.

“As I repeat from our Annual Report, look at our track record over the past twenty years – no mental degradation has occurred! Judge us by all four quarters next July 2014. Certainly, we have come to know – precious rainbows usually require both rain and sunshine! Team National’s results were obtained by diligence and untiring determination. We are Disappointed – Yes; Contrite – Certainly; Resilient – Absolutely . . .” a heartfelt Caporella concluded.

National Beverage’s iconic brands are the genuine essence . . . of America.

In a time when geekdom has gone as thoroughly mainstream as it now is, it's hard to find a large-ish movie that doesn't have someone in its cast who's been in a well-known genre property. But this Shakespeare adaptation takes it to a new level.

Evernote 5 for Windows [Link] Evernote for Windows just received a significant update that brings it into parity with the Mac version. The new version 5 now supports reminders, shortcuts, related notes and improved search. Not to mention the entire app is much nicer to look at. I like Evernote a lot and it's a wonderful collaboration tool. It's nice to have all the convenience and rich design I'm accustomed to on the Mac sitting in front of me on my Windows machine too.
