Good news for Dragon Ball fans: Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden, the latest DBZ game on Nintendo 3DS, has been rated by the Australian Classification Board and received a PG rating. This all but confirms a release of the game in PAL regions. It’s not an official announcement just yet, but thankfully E3 is right around the corner where Bandai Namco might do just that.

We’ve received two new screenshots for Atlus’ and Nintendo’s upcoming collaboration title Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem (or as it’s known in Japan, Illusory Revelations #FE).

The first one comes from Atlus’ Twitter account and shows a female character using a bow during combat. The second one is a bit more interesting – it’s basically an improved version of a scene we saw in the game’s trailer. Director Mitsuru Hirata mentions that, compared to what we saw in the trailer, ground textures have been improved and more objects have been added. I’ve included a screenshot from the trailer for comparison’s sake – the new image is the one without the UI.

Illusory Revelations #FE will be released in Japan in Q4 2015. A Western release is set for next year.

Rhythm Heaven is out this week in Japan and we’ve got a couple of new details about the game. First of all, the game features a multiplayer mode where 2 to 4 people can play together. Best of all, it supports Download Play, which means that only one copy of the game per multiplayer session is required. Via Streetpass you’ll be able to share your play data with other players. The game will also have Spotpass functionality.

We’ve also got a couple new screenshots of the game. Check them out in the gallery below:

A Western release date for Rhythm Heaven: The Best Plus has not yet been announced. Who knows, maybe we’ll hear something at E3 next week?

Nintendo published a new trailer for the most recent piece of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate DLC, featuring Isabelle and Mr. Resetti from Animal Crossing. Check it out below:

Last week, we reported on Tappingo coming to Europe soon, with the exception of Germany, where the game will not be released likely in part due to the cost of having to acquire an age rating for Germany in addition to the PEGI rating required for the rest of Europe. However, situations like that might soon be a thing of the past. GoNintendo reports that the Nintendo eShop, in addition to other platforms, will join the IARC (International Age Rating Coalition), which allows to developers to more easily obtain appropriate age ratings for various regions simply be filling out a form. In an increasingly globalized marketplace, this is certainly a welcome option.

It might be a while before this has a tangible benefit for Nintendo platforms, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. We’ll keep you updated on further developments.
