Other than some concept art, the Super Mario World interview on Nintendo’s Japanese website with some of its original developers also reveals some fascinating tidbits about the game. One especially interesting part is about Mario and Yoshi – specifically, what exactly is Mario doing with his hand just before Yoshi sticks his tongue out?

Due to the graphical limitations of the SNES, it was never really clear if Mario points at something and tells Yoshi to go get it – or if he hits him on the head, which causes Yoshi to stick his tongue out in surprise. Turns out it was originally the latter, but it was officially changed to the former via some official artwork (though it’s still ambiguous with the in-game sprites). Here’s what Shigefumi Hino, who was the Character Graphic Designer on Super Mario World and who created Yoshi, had to say about it:

In a recent interview about the SNES Classic Edition developer interview they covered Super Mario World. In the interview we got some images of some original sprite work and a very noseless Yoshi. There are also a few other notable sprites including the red magic balloon and the different Hammer Bros. I can’t tell if Yoshi looks more adorable or horrifying in its original sprites.

Nintendo is readying another new update for ARMS. All signs point to it being available tomorrow in Japan, which should be the evening of September 28 (today) in North America.

Nintendo is being pretty darn cryptic about the update, but we’re not expecting it to be as big as the 3.0 patch. Still, it sounds like a stage is involved here. Nintendo basically said “that stage” for matches will be open to the public.

We’ll keep an eye out for additional details as they’re made available.

The illustrious Dragon Ball franchise by the brilliant mind of Akira Toriyama still goes strong today over 30 years later thanks to its unforgettable characters, world, and expansions into realms of other media such as films, video games, and more, including its brand new anime follow-up Dragon Ball Super. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 takes the core concept and canon of the series and adds a twist to it, giving players a “what if” scenario by having them right the wrongs of altered history as a Time Patroller – a character which you’ll create before starting the game to serve as your primary avatar on your journey through time. Unlike other titles that have you reliving the show, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 feels like a fresh take on the series.
