The Legend of Legacy appears to be coming west. During the latest Shin Megami Tensei Network podcast, Atlus PR manager John Hardin apparently let it slip that the RPG is being localized.

Hardin said:

We did announce The Legend of Legacy is coming over here, and we have another one in the can too that I can’t talk about just yet. But another really niche Japanese game that actually isn’t out yet, we’re bringing that over for the 3DS later this year. What could it be?

Regarding the other mystery 3DS title, it’s possible that Hardin may have been referring to Stella Glow. Some people are speculating that he may have forgotten which of those two 3DS games Atlus had already announced. Stella Glow was confirmed for the west just over a month ago, while The Legend of Legacy still hasn’t been officially announced for North America and Europe. That could be changing soon.

Nintendo has started reprinting the Villager amiibo in Japan. I’m marking this as a rumor to be safe, but it’s looking like a few, small changes were made to the figure.

As pointed out by My Amiibo News:

The original Villager’s eyes appear more elongated and are placed evenly between the hairline and the nose. The reprint shows changes in the eye shape and placement. Its eyes look somewhat rounder and are placed lower on the face, hugging the nose a lot more.

How do you guys feel about the changes? Which version do you prefer?

A couple of weeks ago, we heard rumblings about The Simpsons and Portal possibly coming to LEGO Dimensions in some fashion. Listings on Walmart have now made this practically official.

The Simpsons and Portal are being featured in LEGO Dimensions as new Level Packs. Walmart also reveals the existence of Jurassic World and Scooby Doo Team Packs, as well as a few Chima Fun Packs (Cragger, Eris, and Laval).

LEGO Dimensions arrives in late September. Warner Bros. will be making official announcements about the game leading up to launch.
