Family Fishing is heading to the North American 3DS eShop on November 19, Aksys Games and Arc System Works have announced.

Here’s an overview of the title:

Fish like a Boss! – Traverse exotic locales in search of the wily boss fish! Build up your Special Attack gauge bar to turn the tide of battle and make tricky catches with ease! Aim for the big boss with high bounty points or catch them all to win!

Blow ‘em Away! – Each fish has assigned points. Will you slowly collect points by catching smaller and more common fish? Or will you risk it all on that rare catch of a lifetime? Throw smoke bombs to disrupt your opponents and seize the advantage!

Upgrade Your Gear! – Collect points and upgrade your fishing rods and lures to go fin to fin with the toughest fish around! The big boss fish won’t rollover without a fight. Gear up to make sure he goes down!

A European release date for Family Fishing hasn’t been determined yet, but it likely won’t be too far behind the North American launch.

Earlier today we made mention of the North American Star Fox Zero teaser site. There isn’t too much that can be found there, but a couple of interesting references have been found.

Take a look at this excerpt from the very bottom of the page:

Game, system and amiibo sold separately. Compatibility and functionality of amiibo may vary by game. Visit amiibo.com for specific details on how each amiibo works.

Broadband Internet access required for online features. For more info, go to support.nintendo.com.

Shigeru Miyamoto has previously teased amiibo support for Star Fox Zero, so its inclusion wouldn’t be overly surprising. Online play was tentatively ruled out at E3, but Miyamoto left the door open to the possibility.
