A batch of new 3DS themes were made available in Japan yesterday, but a few more have launched today. There are two based on Fire Emblem Fates and another one featuring Animal Crossing. Pricing for each is set at 200 yen.

View some videos for the different themes below.

To promote the launch of the New 3DS in Japan, Nintendo brought in singer/model Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. She’s now back once again for an Animal Crossing: New Leaf commercial that will be airing in Japan. You can check it out below.

A live stream was recently held for the Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher) trading card game. We now have the full archive, which can be seen below.

Nintendo uploaded a new video to its North American YouTube page for The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes. Director Hiromosa Shikata, Katsuya Eguchi, and Tim O’Leary showed off more gameplay. Watch the video below.

Yesterday, some news emerged about a potential F-Zero game for Wii U. Nintendo of Europe asked Criterion to work on a pitch for a new entry in the franchise for Nintendo’s console back in 2011, but the studio declined since it was busy bringing Need for Speed: Most Wanted to a number of platforms.

Alex Ward, who was formerly with Criterion, commented on the situation via Twitter yesterday. It seems that talks weren’t far along, which would make sense based on yesterday’s initial report). Ward also indicated that he personally isn’t interested in working on someone else’s IP.

The Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher) card game is out now in Japan. Some of you may be wondering about how it’s actually played. Thanks to some details translated by Siliconera, we have the full rundown. A summary of information can be found below.

– Cards have illustrations from various artists
– The big number on the bottom-left shows its strength with a support power number to the right
– The card also has other information on the class unit, range, and skills
– Play with 50-card decks
– 1-on-1 battles
– Begin by choosing your “protagonist”
– Then you’ll fight it out with the help of other cards from your respective decks
– Need to defeat the other player’s protagonist
– Both players will draw a card that becomes their supporting character
– Add the strength from the original card and the support power of the other
– You can then see which side has the higher attack
– If your number is the same or higher than the opponent’s, it counts as a successful attack
– Both players have two sides to their respective fields: the frontline area and the back row area
– Cards with higher strength do better in the frontline
– In the frontline, they can take out enemies directly in front of them
– Those with higher ranged numbers can attack from the back row, and are difficult to hit
– Everything is turn-based
– Both players obtain more cards to attack with over time
– Cards come with all kinds of skills
– Cards can also work with other cards using their skills
– The “bond” shared between the character cards is one of the key features of the card game
