Originally, the Azure Striker Gunvolt anime OVA was planned for Winter 2016. That target won’t be met, but not by much. The team now hopes to have the anime ready in January.

When it’s ready, the Azure Striker Gunvolt anime OVA will be placed on the 3DS eShop. It will be distributed in North America, Europe, and Japan.

We’ll bring you the final release date as soon as we have it.

My Nintendo is giving users another opportunity to earn easy points.

A new page has opened up on Nintendo’s website here. Basically, it allows users to send an invitation to friends to check out the 3DS. Filling out the form will provide you with 20 Platinum Points.

Note that Nintendo is only handing out Platinum Points once. Even if you fill out the form a second time inviting another friend, you won’t be given any extra points.

Update (12/20): This update should now be live.

Original (12/19): A new Pokemon GO update is going live across iOS and Android. Users should find that version 1.21.0 / 0.51.1 can be downloaded shortly.

The update is pretty minor in nature, though it does address a bothersome bug. Niantic’s official patch notes are as follows:

– The bug that caused incorrect vibration notifications has been fixed.
– Day and night modes have changed to more accurately reflect the Trainer’s current time of day.
– Minor text fixes.
