Rumour: Twilight Princess HD contains new dungeon unlocked via amiibo, Hero Mode and more
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Wii U | 88 Comments
Update: The paragraph containing the amiibo info has been removed from the product listing. Looks like Nintendo gave Amazon a slap on the wrist.
The HD remake of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will be out in less than two months, however we still don’t know a lot about this version’s new features. A product listing on Amazon France may have just revealed some new details though.
Most importantly, the product listing sheds some light on the game’s amiibo features. Scanning any amiibo from the Legend of Zelda series will allow you to replenish your hearts, arrows and presumably other consumables. Scanning the Wolf Link amiibo, however, unlocks a new dungeon called “The Twilight Cave” – and remember, data recorded on that amiibo can be transferred over to the new Legend of Zelda game on Wii U.
Hero Mode, by now somewhat of a staple of the series, will also be back. You don’t have to unlock it this time – it can be selected right from the start.
Just like in Wind Waker HD, you can also access your inventory directly through the Gamepad’s touch screen, allowing you to select items without pausing the game.
Although product listings on Amazon have traditionally been a pretty reliable source of info, I would still advise you not to take this as 100% confirmed.

Bravely Second demo coming to Europe, story & gameplay summary
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Nintendo of Europe just published some new info about Bravely Second: End Layer, the sequel to the acclaimed 3DS RPG Bravely Default: Where the Fairy Flies, which will be released in Europe on February 26th.
Most importantly, perhaps, is the fact that a demo for the game will be released on February 11th. Just like in Bravely Default, save data from the demo can be transferred over to the full game in order to unlock in-game bonuses.
Story-wise, the game will feature characters from the first game such as Magnolia, Edea and Tiz, but will also include several new playable characters. Among those are the “Three Cavaliers” – Yew Geneolgia, Janne Angard, and Nikolai Nikolanikov, who set out to rescue the kidnapped Agnès Oblige at the start of the game.
In terms of gameplay, the previous game’s Brave and Default system will also be available in Bravely Second. Be reckless and gain additional turns in combat now with Brave, or save them up for later with Default – the choice is yours. A new feature in Bravely Second lets you chain together multiple battles after winning one in a single turn – you can gain more experience and better rewards that way, but dying means you lose all your accumulated rewards.
As in Bravely Default, you have multiple Jobs at your disposal. These are basically your character’s classes, and you can freely assign any of them. Some return from Bravely Default and some are brand new, such as the baked goods-using Patissier or the feline-affine Catmancer.

Birthday month discounts coming to Nintendo Account in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Nintendo, News | 7 Comments
Nintendo Account is, as the name implies, Nintendo’s new, unified account system. Announced for early this year in the West, the program had somewhat of a surprise launch in Japan in December. Personalized discounts were one of Nintendo Account’s announced features – however, so far users with Japanese accounts were only able to take advantage of global discounts, not much different to sales on the eShop.
However, that is changing with a new feature coming this month. Users who link their Nintendo Network ID to their Nintendo Account before the 24th of their respective birthday month and opt in to receive promotional e-mails from Nintendo will receive special discounts on the 24th of their birthday month. This means that we should learn what this month’s discounts are on January 24th.
Right now we don’t know if birthday month discounts will also be available to European and North American users once Nintendo Account launches there. Nintendo is likely to share more details on the system’s Western launch in the coming weeks.
