Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada isn’t going to push Masahiro Sakurai into adding any of his characters on the roster for the next Smash Bros. games. Tales series producer Makoto Yoshizumi seems to be carrying the same mentality, though Yoshito Higuchi would apparently “love” to see a character or two included.

Yoshizumi has said that getting a Tales character into the new Smash Bros. may prove to be difficult since “a character can only appear in a Smash Bros game if he already appeared on a Nintendo console.” This rule limits the selection to a few titles such as Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, and Tales of Hearts.

Head past the break for all of Yoshizumi’s comments on Smash Bros.

Scribblenauts Unlimited will offer very similar experiences on Wii U and 3DS. According to Nintendo Power, both titles contain the same missions, worlds, upgraded dictionary, and open-ended gameplay.

So what sets the two apart? Nintendo Power says Scribblenauts Unlimited 3DS “will include StreetPass functionality that will allow you to see what objects other players have used to overcome the game’s challenges, as well as stereoscopic 3D enhancements for the cinematics.”

There’s one important element missing from the 3DS version though: the new object editor.

Nintendo Easter Eggs never cease to amaze me. This latest one, despite being a smaller nugget (and perhaps known for awhile), is still pretty darn neat.

Basically, the GameCube has a cameo appearance in Metroid Fusion. It’s embedded in at least one of the game’s exhaust fans.

Take a look below:

Can you spot it in the image? If not, head past the break to see its location!

GameStop is gearing up for a Pokemon Black/White distribution later this month. Players will be able to add Keldeo to their copy of the title.

The event will take place between August 27 and October 6. Keldeo will come in its ordinary form, but it can be changed to Resolute Form once traded to Pokémon Black/White 2. Along with this, Keldeo can learn Secret Sword when taken to the Moor of Icirrus.

Thanks to Lars Havnes for the tip.

Some European consumers have been experiencing screen scratching issues with the newly launched 3DS XL. The scratches have been appearing in the form of various dots on the top screen, occasionally forming lines.

When the original 3DS hit store shelves, users also complained of screen scratching on the top screen. In some cases, this continued even with with more recent 3DS units.

It’s currently unclear how big of an issue screen scratching could turn out to be for the 3DS XL.
