We last heard about The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD when it was made official during the November 2015 Nintendo Direct. A couple of months later, Nintendo is now ready to show more of the game.

Famitsu has a four-page feature on Twilight Princess HD this week. It remains to be seen what’s actually included since early magazine leaks lack concrete information. We should be getting new screenshots at the very least! Scans will hit the site tomorrow morning.

The Pokemon news continues! A new video promoting the franchise’s 20th anniversary can be seen below.

One important point from the video mentions monthly Mythical Pokemon distributions. This will start in February, and features the likes of Mew, Darkrai, Arceus, and much more. You’ll be able to obtain these Pokemon in X/Y as well as Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

We’ve mentioned before that big gaming franchises are celebrating big anniversaries this year. Pokemon, for instance, is 20 years old in 2016. An official logo was sent out today commemorating the occasion.

Also revealed is that Pokemon will be seeing its first ever Super Bowl commercial on February 7. This will “encourage fans to Train On,” The Pokemon Company says.

It doesn’t look like North America will be receiving the special 2DS bundles featuring Pokemon, but a New 3DS package is planned instead. Red and Blue will be pre-installed, and two cover plates plus a download code for a home menu theme will be included.

Nintendo also announced two new sets of Pokemon cover plates. One featuring artwork from Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon and a design decked out in artwork of classic Pokemon will be available on February 27 alongside the 2DS bundles.

A few hours ago, Famitsu unveiled Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages. Leaks from the magazine provide a few more details about the project.

We mentioned earlier today that Lulucoco Town, Tsuyukusa Village, and Wes Town are in the game. The first one is tropical based, the second features a Japanese style, and the third one has a western theme. Famitsu seems to have character details about Wes Town this week. We’re waiting to hear about marriage candidates as this information has not yet leaked. Reports also mention “cute pets and animals”, though we’ll need to wait for tomorrow’s scans to see them for ourselves.

Just like in the past, players can choose their gender and appearance. This extends to skin color, hair color, facial expressions, and more.

One new element in Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages is a “Farm Circle” system. This allows players to increase efficiency by placing certain buildings and facilities in the farm.

Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages is 80 percent complete. It’ll be released early summer in Japan.
