Two more videos for The Great Ace Attorney have gone live on Capcom’s YouTube channel. Both are attached below.

One neat feature in Yoshi’s Woolly World is the ability to tap amiibo in the game to change Yoshi’s yarn pattern. The Splatoon Twitter account recently showed off that this also works for inkling amiibo and provided a look at the squid-inspired pattern. Does it hold up against the original design or would you rather rock the tried and true green?

Update: here’s another shot from in-game

Nintendo has added another two weapons to Splatoon. Players can begin trying out the Sploosh-o-matic, in addition to the .96 Gal Deco.

Nintendo describes the Sploosh-o-matic as follows:

It’s range is super short, but it gobbles up foes in close-quarters combat. Take them by surprise and there’s no escape! The Squid Beakon subs will help you get in there, and the Killer Wail special will let you wreck shop once you do.

And here’s the .96 Gal Deco overview:

It’s a more sparkly version of the original .96 Gal, but this one comes with a Splash Wall sub and a Kraken special to strike a perfect balance between defense and attack.

Some footage has come in of the Fire Emblem Fates and BoxBoy! 3DS themes. Take a look at the video below for a look at all three.
