At the Tokyo Game Show last month, Capcom announced that an anime is planned for Monster Hunter Stories. This will debut in Japan sometime next year.

A new piece of information about the anime has since surfaced. Specifically, it’s now confirmed that David Production is behind the show. This team is perhaps best known for working on the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders anime.

At the end of the Ace Attorney 6’s Tokyo Game Show trailer, we got a glimpse of Apollo Justice at the very end. It turns out he’ll have quite a big role in the game. As revealed in this week’s issue of Famitsu, Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice are featured in Ace Attorney 6 as dual protagonists.

Famitsu also says that the game is set in both Japan and “Kurain Kingdom.” Prosecutor Payne (Gaspen Payne) will meet Phoenix here. In Famitsu’s article, it’s mentioned that the country features an undefeated prosecutor as well.

LEGO Jurassic World launched back in June. Since then, it has sold roughly four million units, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. It’s not known how much LEGO Jurassic World sold on Wii U and 3DS specifically, but Warner Bros. must be happy with the game’s sales overall.

Some of you may recall that PEGI rated Slender: The Arrival for Wii U nearly a year ago. But sadly, nothing ever came from that listing. It’s curious then that Slender: The Arrival has once again received a rating, this time from German classification board USK.

If there weren’t any plans to bring Slender: The Arrival to Wii U, it wouldn’t make much sense to have the game rated – twice now. It is strange though that the first classification was found last year and yet a Wii U release still hasn’t happened. Perhaps the inclusion on USK’s website is a sign that we’ll finally be seeing the game on the eShop soon?

NWPlayer123, a person known within the gaming scene for data mining various games such as Splatoon, posted a brief chat she had with another person who has been snooping around the Wii U eShop. Supposedly, Nintendo recently added in a new title ID for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It’s not quite clear if this would be referring to a simple re-release of the Wii game or an HD version (though the latter is mentioned in the conversation).

It’s not possible to download anything from the eShop. Only the home icon was recovered – it’s actually the image above, but smaller.

It’s true that this could have been a test or an error on Nintendo’s part. I’d personally assume that if it was intentional, there are only plans to bring the original Wii game over much like Super Mario Galaxy 2 and other titles.

Later this week, XSEED Games will be hosting an event, and a number of announcements will be made. It will apparently be taking place on Wednesday. We’re not sure how much Nintendo news there will be, though hopefully we’ll hear about a Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale release date at the very least.
