Yesterday, Nintendo of America announced the return of the Splatoon Testfire limited demo. Today, Nintendo announced that the Splatoon Testfire is also coming to Europe. Players can download the free Splatoon demo starting on August 18th. The Testfire period will end on September 1st.

Nintendo of Europe has not announced any further details so far, such as specific times when you will be able to actually play the demo, like in North America. It would be slightly unusual, but it is possible that you will be able to play the Splatoon demo as much as you want from August 18th till September 1st. We will keep you updated.

Update: A Style Savvy bundle is also on the way. Here’s the packaging for both:

Nintendo of Europe had some news for Yo-Kai Watch fans today: first of all, a Yo-Kai Watch 2DS bundle will be released on October 7th. The bundle contains a blue Nintendo 2DS pre-installed with Yo-Kai Watch.

Also, Nintendo confirmed that both versions of Yo-Kai Watch 2, Fleshy Souls and Bony Spirits will arrive in Europe in Spring 2017. As with the first game, other regions will get to play the game several months earlier, so European Yo-Kai Watch fans will once again need to be patient.

Well, we originally going to just include this in our weekly eShop update, but Nintendo doesn’t seem to want to send that out this week, so this is getting its own post.

MixedBag’s Futurium EP Deluxe has been out on Wii U for a while. The New Nintendo 3DS version of the game, meanwhile, took a bit longer to develop, but it’s looking like the wait will soon be over. MixedBag announced on Twitter that the New 3DS version has passed Nintendo’s internal lot check, meaning that as far as Nintendo is concerned, the game is ready to be released on their platforms. MixedBag also confirmed cross-buy with the Wii U version and that the game would run at 60 fps in 3D. A concrete release date is coming soon.
