Shantae: Half-Genie Hero has mostly wrapped up development. WayForward say it’s now “content complete” and is shifting attention to fixing bugs.

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero was most recently targeted for September 27. Unfortunately, it’s now being moved back “by about 6 weeks, give or take.”

WayForward wrote in a Kickstarter update today:

“First things first – we are going to have to adjust our Target Release Date, moving it back from our 9/27 Target Release date by about 6 weeks, give or take. We know this will disappoint some of you, but we feel that it’s necessary to take that extra time for bug fixing and adding additional polish. We know you want the final product to be excellent and so do we! Thanks for your patience and support as we approach the finish line!”

The full Shantae: Half-Genie Hero Kickstarter update can be read here.

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer is at its lowest price yet on the North American eShop. It started out at $40, but the game is now available for $20. This appears to be a permanent price drop. It also seems that you should receive a free 3DS theme with your purchase.

Thanks to Liam F for the tip.

Diffusion Million Arthur from Square Enix ended up on the Japanese 3DS eShop in October 2014. In two months, service for the free-to-play title will end.

Players will no longer be able to buy MiraCoins as of September 30. That will of course be followed up with the full closure on October 31. As for the reasoning behind Diffusion Million Arthur’s closure on 3DS, Square Enix feels that it will be difficult to continue providing a satisfactory experience to users.

Pokemon GO data miners are once again pouring through the game’s code in hope of finding new secrets. What’s been found today may suggest that a new feature is coming.

In Pokemon GO’s latest version, there are references to a buddy system. Pokemon GO Hub summarizes what we know thus far:

• Pokemon Buddy System is using the same server side distance calculation as the one used for Pokemon Eggs
• Walking your Pokemon Buddy will award you with candy. The amount of candy is yet to be determined.
• You can walk the same Pokemon Buddy multiple times, but there is likely a daily limitfor obtained candy
• You can walk with only one Buddy Pokemon at a time
• There are various looks of Buddy Pokemon
  • Medium size
  • Big size
  • Flying next to you
  • Rests on your shoulder

Based on these findings, we may see a buddy system added to Pokemon GO in an update soon. As always, we’ll keep you informed about future patches.
