During a Nintendo press event that is currently ongoing, several RPGs were showcased. One of these was Dragon Quest VII.

According to Nintendo, Dragon Quest VII is “basically a brand new game” on 3DS. It’ll feature entirely new writing for its western release. Additionally, random encounters have been removed, and you’ll see enemies on the map. A story summary feature and StreetPass feature that lets you gain tablets will also be included.

Circle Entertainment posted two concrete pieces of news on its Twitter account today. One concerns a title we haven’t heard before, while the other is about a release in one particular region.

Toy Defense is now confirmed to be coming to 3DS. It’s already done, and it’ll be launching soon. This is likely the tower defense game that hit mobile platforms several months ago.

Circle Entertainment also confirmed today that The Legend of Dark Witch 2 is approved in Europe, and should be available next month. It’s accompanied by several 3DS themes.

Lastly, we also have a small tease Circle Entertainment. The publisher mentioned is will release a “Japanese adventure story game”, which is already approved by Nintendo in North America.

A new Japanese adventure story game has been approved lotcheck by NOA, hope to see NOE approve it soon.:p

Another set of amiibo are due out towards the end of this week. Nintendo will release Lucas in addition to the latest Animal Crossing figures and cards. In the image above, you can see in-store stock estimates for the different amiibo.

For the most part you shouldn’t have too much trouble locating the different amiibo. Online is also an option, and they’ve been pretty well-stocked at places like Amazon thus far!
