Unified developer portal launched by Nintendo
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Nintendo, News | 6 Comments
Nintendo’s new Developer Portal just went online – this website serves as a hub for everyone wanting to develop games for Nintendo platforms (i.e. Wii U and 3DS, there’s no NX info on the site, as expected). The Developer Portal welcomes developers of all sizes – from big companies to one-person indie devs. Previously, Nintendo had separate programs for “big” developers and for indies. The website and program are currently available in both English and Japanese.
The website offers developers help on all the steps involved with releasing a game on Nintendo platforms – development tools such as Unity, self-publishing, PR and so on.

Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Splatoon’s final Splatfest is coming up and Nintendo are celebrating it in a variety of ways. European Wii U owners will soon be able to prove whether or not they’re as good as Callie and Marie. Wii Karaoke U, a karaoke game that’s free to download on the European Wii U eShop, will add three Squid Sisters songs on July 28th: “City of Colour”, “Ink Me Up” and “Calamari Inkantation”.
If you don’t want to pay actual money to try to your hand at these songs, remember that you can get a 1 hour Wii Karaoke U ticket on My Nintendo for 100 Platinum Points once per month.

Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 12 Comments
Originally we were supposed to get new Pokemon Sun & Moon information tomorrow – however, some leaks happened today and it looks like they force The Pokemon Company’s hand. Either way, take a look at this brand new Japanese trailer:
This confirms the leaked Pokemon and also reveals their typings:
Tapu Koko: Electric / Fairy
Charjabug: Bug / Electric
Vikavolt (confirmed to be Charjabug’s evolution): Bug / Electric
Drampa: Normal / Dragon
Bruxfish: Water / Psychic
Cutiefly: Bug / Fairy
Togedamaru: Electric / Steel
Finally, the trailer reveals that, like 10% Zygarde, 50% Zygarde (the one originally found in X & Y) has an ability that lets it transform into 100% Zygarde in a pinch.
