It’s been a very busy day for amiibo news. We’ve heard about new Animal Crossing figures plus Famicom R.O.B coming to North America, and we even saw a first look at the Ryu amiibo.
That’s not all though. Found it what seems to be a GameStop display is confirmation of another amiibo exclusive. In the United States, you’ll only be able to purchase Roy at GameStop.
Update: Rover and Kapp’n – Timmy & Tommy Nook amiibo on the way, will be Target exclusive in the U.S.

It was just a few days ago that we heard about another Puzzle & Dragons game for 3DS via CoroCoro. Thanks to a newly-emerged scan, the title is confirmed to be “Puzzle & Dragons X”.
The scan, pictured above, admittedly doesn’t show a ton. It looks like we have a first look at the main character who is capable of turning into a knight. Aside from that, a pair of monsters are depicted.
Puzzle & Dragons X is heading to the 3DS in Japan next year. More information about the project should be shared soon.

Some folks have been asking about how NIS America handled the Wii version of Rodea: The Sky Soldier in terms of packaging. As many of you know, that version of the game came with all pre-orders (plus first-print copies).
Rodea: The Sky Soldier’s Wii edition doesn’t have its own box. Instead, NIS America included it in the same Wii U case. A separate case would have been nice, but at least we did end up getting the Wii version in the end!
