At the Tokyo Game Show earlier today, Capcom hosted three Nintendo-centric stage shows. Monster Hunter Stories, Ace Attorney, and Megami Meguri were each featured at the expo. Recordings for each can be found below.

It’s been a three year wait since the original Japanese release, but Dragon Quest VII finally landed in North America and Europe on 3DS yesterday. However, Nintendo is also hard at work localizing another Dragon Quest game. Next year, we’ll be seeing Dragon Quest VIII on 3DS.

At the PAX panel for Dragon Quest VII a couple of weeks ago, Nintendo showed some footage from the English version of Dragon Quest VIII. Fans were treated to the intro, which confirmed voice acting just like the PlayStation 2 version as both the king and Yangus spoke. Also, it seems that there will not be orchestrated music like Dragon Quest VII’s localized 3DS release.

GameStop is offering an exclusive pre-order bonus for Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice. If you reserve it at the retailer, you’ll receive the poster pictured above. The offer is valid both online and in-store.

Those who pre-order or pick up Sonic Boom upon release will also be entitled to the “Launch Edition”. The package includes three episodes of the Sonic Boom animated series on a bonus DVD.

During a stage show at TGS, Capcom showed a special 15th anniversary video for Ace Attorney which takes a look back at the series. It’s now been published online, and we have it below.

The Great Ace Attorney 2 is in development, Capcom revealed today. News about the project was just shared during a stage show at TGS for Ace Attorney’s 15th anniversary.

Here’s the first trailer:

The Great Ace Attorney launched in Japan last year. However, it has yet to make its way to North America and Europe.

Capcom has not yet said when The Great Ace Attorney 2 will be available, but 2017 is a likely target. It’s also unclear which platform(s) the game will be on.

During TGS, SEGA has been holding various live streams for upcoming games. Puyo Puyo Chronicle is one title that was featured, and live gameplay was shown. We have the recording below.

Ahead of launch next month, Nintendo opened the teaser site for Paper Mario: Color Splash. You can visit it here. For now the page has a couple of videos, some screenshots, and a bit of information, but the full-blown site should eventually offer much more.

In a recent issue of Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream, producer Yosuke Hayashi was asked about the inclusion of Marin in Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends. The character made it in as part of the Link’s Awakening DLC Pack.

Hayashi touched on why Marin uses a bell, her appearance, and movements. Head past the break for our full translation.
