Update: Rumor has come in early – potential new Paper Mario game. See this post.

This is sort of a new one! We have an announcement about a rumor coming sometime next week (update: Monday, see added forth tweet below).

Emily Rogers, Liam Robertson, and ShockingAlberto from NeoGAF have supposedly managed to dig up information regarding a new Wii U title. This is a Nintendo-published game as opposed to a third-party release. There’s apparently a decent amount of evidence behind the rumor, as 4-5 sources have provided information.

Rogers shared these messages on Twitter:

Knowing Emily, I don’t think she would be putting these tweets out there if she didn’t feel confident in her sources. Still, it’s important to keep in mind that this will be a rumor at the end of the day instead of something that’s being claimed as actual fact. We’ll see what happens come next week!

Severed, the newest game from Guacamelee! developer DrinkBox Studios, is currently just a PlayStation Vita game. But could it planned for additional platforms, including one from Nintendo?

Yesterday, Severed was rated for 3DS in Brazil along with mobile platforms (and Vita). Perhaps this is a sign that DrinkBox is thinking about a potential 3DS version. Then again, Severed’s rating also includes 3DS – so maybe it’s just a mistake. Only time will tell!

This is absolutely bizarre and random. But it’s also kind of amazing.

“Sir Kirby” has modded Super Smash Bros. Brawl so that Hyrule Temple can be played in the game. Someone told him to do it… so he went ahead and made it happen!

Here are some photos:
