The Japanese Kirby: Planet Robobot website was updated once again today. On the page, new concept art was posted. We have a look at images for the Haltmann Works Company and Susie in the gallery below.

Update: Several Youtube channels have saved and re-uploaded the original videos. This also gave us what are presumably the English names of these Pokemon. We’ve put them past the break.

Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon appear to have suffered from a potentially big leak. While not officially confirmed, now-removed video clips show what appear to be a bunch of new Pokemon. Since this does seem legitimate and falls under spoiler territory, we’ve posted the gallery showing the new creatures after the break.

In Japan, the Link’s Awakening Pack is already available for Hyrule Warriors (and presumably Hyrule Warriors Legends). Check out some footage of the DLC after the break (warning: auto-play).

Three special concerts will be hosted in Japan later this year in celebration of Zelda’s 30th anniversary. Performances will be held in Kyoto, Tokyo, and Nagoya on October 1, October 14, and December 14 respectively. The official site is located here.

Popular songs from the series will be performed in full orchestra under conductor Taizo Takemoto, and Zelda footage will be shown on the screen. The site also teases that a certain person involved with the series will appear (perhaps Eiji Aonuma or Shigeru Miyamoto?).

The concert tickets will have a Master Sheet (originally designed ticket with bonus goods of a set of pins). Additionally, exclusive original goods will only be sold only at these concerts.

Ticket sales will begin on June 30 at 12 PM. Master Sheet ticket sales will end earlier on July 5 at 11:59 PM, while S and A seat ticket sales will end on July 11 at 11:59 PM.

The latest issue of Famitsu has shared a listing of the top 30 best-selling games in Japan for the month of May 2016. You can check out the full results below.

Axiom Verge will be heading to Wii U very soon. But could there be a chance of a 3DS version as well? Possibly.

Creator Tom Happ says he’s investigating a potential 3DS port at the moment. However, there are some technical challenges that would need to be taken into consideration. For one thing, Axiom Verge was originally made to run at a 1280×720 (720p) resolution. Shader effects are also used which require more than what the 3DS offers. Happ did note that these aspects would not necessarily be insurmountable.

Nintendo has opened the North American teaser site for Dragon Quest VII. Access it here.

In other news, Amazon is accepting pre-orders for Dragon Quest VII again. You can get yours in here. Pre-orders were down for awhile, which even prompted some (rather silly) speculation that the game would only be download-only. Of course, we know that isn’t true!

Update: Now live on Android.
