Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Videos, Wii U | 6 Comments
Splatoon has been a huge success, especially in Japan, and with that came the inevitable deluge of all kinds of merchandise – including a Splatoon-themed “candy kit” which allows you to make your own gummy candies in the shape of various Splatoon characters. Unless you live in Japan you won’t be able to eat these delicious (?) Inklinks themselves, so a video will have to do:

The Voice heading to Wii this November
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Videos, Wii | 6 Comments
Yes, you read that right: The Voice, based on the popular show of the same name, is being released on Wii, and not Wii U, in the UK this November (though you can obviously still play it on your Wii U thanks to the system’s Wii backwards compatibility).
The game will feature several modes taken from the TV show and a selection of 30 songs, including “Ruby” by Kaiser Chiefs, “Don’t Stop Me Now” by Queen, “Kiss Me” by Olly Murs and “Karma Charmeleon” by Culture Club.
The game will be available as either a stand-alone package with just the game for £34.99 or bundled with 2 microphones for £44.99.
Finally, take a look at the video below, which shows off some of the songs:

Pokemon Sun & Moon file size
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS eShop, News | 25 Comments
Two days ago, we reported on the file size of the upcoming Pokemon Sun & Moon demo, which is about 400 MB or 3100 blocks. However, the official Japanese website for Sun & Moon, which is where that info came from, also revealed the file size for the full game via a warning that having both the demo and the full game downloaded would exceed the capacity of the standard-issue 4 GB SD card. The full game will take up 3.2 GB or about 26,200 blocks on your 3DS’ SD card. For comparison, Pokemon X & Y take up 1.7 GB and Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire take up 1.8 GB. Quite the jump up – the increased graphical detail in the overworld likely contributed a lot to that.
Overall, this makes Pokemon Sun & Moon the 4th largest game on the 3DS, behind Bravely Default, Bravely Second and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D.

Puyo Puyo Chronicle: details on the story and characters + new screenshots
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 0 comments
The latest entry in the Puyo Puyo series, Puyo Puyo Chronicle, was recently announced in Japan. Today, SEGA published some details on the game’s story and characters.
Arle and Carbunble’s day-to-day life in Primp Town is suddenly interrupted when a mysterious book falls from the sky that transports the two of them to a strange new world. Together with a girl called Allie, Arle and Carbuncle go on a journey through that new world to find a way back to their own.
Allie calls Arle a hero – the reason for that is that a prophecy exists in that world which speaks of a girl with a ponytail wearing a white and blue-colored outfit, accompanied by a yellow creature who one day arrive from another world to save this one. Of course, this pretty much exactly applies to Arle and Carbuncle.
On their journey, the three of them venture into a place called Grimp Forest where there is supposedly a girl wearing a Puyo on her head. That girl turns out to be Amitie – who, like Arle and Carbuncle, is from Primp Town and who is not supposed to be in this strange new world. Draco Centaur, Arle’s rival, is also encountered by the group and joins them after being defeated – it seems like there are several familiar faces in this new world.
Finally, take a look at some new screenshots:
