November tends to be a busy month for gaming birthdays. Many consoles launch during the month, and the same goes for several high-profile games.

Yesterday we celebrated the Wii U’s third birthday plus the fact that the GameCube had come out in North America fourteen years ago. It’s another birthday for Nintendo, as the Wii U debuted nine years ago today. Who would have thought that the console would go on to have the type of success that it did?!

This week’s issue of Famitsu has another update on Genei Ibun Roku #FE. The magazine introduces the Bloom Palace, and also share more about battle elements. Find the information rounded up below courtesy of DokiDokiKusoge’s translation.

– Bloom Palace is basically your home base in the game
– It’s run and managed by Chiki
– Chiki is the key visual character of a voice software
– This is where you strengthen your characters
– Can also talk to your Mirages as well
– This is an important place to them
– As your characters become better Mirage Masters, you gain the ability to use Radiant Unity
– You can then have your characters learn various abilities and skills that activate in battle
– In battle, your Mirages can transform into powerful weapons known as Carnage
– Carnage Unity is a system designed to create new Carnages
– Attack power is different for each weapon, but also element and the sorts of skills they learn
– The key to all of this is Performer power
– Performer is an energy that is gained largely through defeating enemies
– Depending on the enemy you fight, the kind of Performer that can be gained varies
– Mirages can undergo Class Changes
– The way this happens is largely the same as in FE
– You need Master Proofs
– Once you’ve gained these, you can perform class change
– Ex: Chrom going from Lord to Master Lord or Overlord
– Pegasus Knight can class change to Falcon Knight or Dragon Knight
– Social Knight can change to Paladin or Dark Knight
– Armor Knight can change to General or Berserker

GungHo have revealed some new information about their upcoming 3DS game Puzzle & Dragons X. While the game still has the traditional match-3 gameplay, it also contains classical RPG elements of with a focus on story and character progression. You can choose to play as either a male or female character. There will also be a full 3D overworld.

The game takes place on Dorogoza Island, a place that has a lot of “Drop” energy. There are over 500 monsters in the game and, as per Puzzle & Dragons tradition, many of them can evolve. Furthermore, the main character can wear pieces of armor that were strengthened with the monsters’ energy, which allows him to use their skills in battle.
