Back in July, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon was featured in a live stream. The same thing will once again be happening on September 16.

Other Pokemon games like Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire will also be shown during the stream. But since we really only care about Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon – the new game here – this is when it will be highlighted on the broadcast:

– 5 AM PT
– 8 AM ET
– 10 AM in the UK
– 11 AM in Europe

The stream will be hosted on Niconico here.

I also wanted to mention that Game Freak’s Junichi Masuda put up a tweet recently about a tease for the Pokemon anime. News will be announced in the upcoming issue of CoroCoro, though it will also be on TV Tokyo next Tuesday. We should be hearing about the silhouetted Pokemon from the movie trailer. We’ll let you know if anything else comes in!

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Super Mario Bros., IGN reached out to nine Nintendo legends for their fondest memories. The site managed to obtain comments from high-profile people like Shigeru Miyamoto and Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime.

Miyamoto’s pick? Super Mario 64. Here’s what he shared about that game:

“Of course, I’ve had many memories with Mario over the last 30 years, but the one that sticks out for me most was when we made Super Mario 64. I felt very fortunate to be able to work in a 3D space for the first time, take on this new technology, and have Mario be the character that helped bring it to life. And that we did that by working with 3D technology at a time when there weren’t many people doing it. So that was a very important moment with Mario for me.

“The other memory links back to my childhood. When I was younger I used to always like to make puppets and do puppet shows. When we made Super Mario 64, it was like I was able to do a puppet show with Mario in a 3D space. It’s been very fun for me to have these moments where the things that I’ve enjoyed from my youth have blended in with the work that I do in video games.”

Reggie’s choice was none other than Super Mario World. He mentioned the following about Nintendo’s SNES classic:

“My deepest Super Mario memory is with Super Mario World. I came into the Nintendo family in 1991 via the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and that console came with Super Mario World. I can still picture Yoshi’s Island 2 and the opening sequence to get a Koopa shell moving to the right and picking up my 1-Up. I also loved the various Yoshis – especially the Blue flying Yoshi and the Yellow sand-stomping Yoshi. I played and replayed that game with my sons and always kept it at 99 lives. I still have the cartridge, and a working SNES at home and in my office.”
