Latest 3DS update fixes crashing issues with Pokemon Rumble World
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, 3DS eShop, News | 3 Comments
It’s not often that we hear about improved stability for a game when Nintendo launches new firmware, but that’s exactly what happened with yesterday’s 3DS update. Version 9.7.0-25 actually addresses crashing issues with Pokemon Rumble World while playing on New 3DS units. The Pokemon Company apologized for any trouble that may have been caused, and players are advised to grab the new upgrade.
Thanks to Anthony for the tip.
Europe getting a Splatoon Wii U bundle as well
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Nintendo isn’t limiting its new Splatoon Wii U bundle to North America. Over on Twitter, the company announced that the same package is bound for Europe as well.
Consumers will find a Wii U console and a copy of Splatoon in the bundle. However, it appears that the European version goes with a physical copy rather than a digital copy, as is the case in North America. There’s also no pre-installed copy of Nintendo Land, with Nintendo instead opting for a Wii Karaoke U trial.
The European Splatoon bundle also carries an unexpected release date. It won’t be available until June 19, which is several weeks after the actual game launches.
Nintendo’s latest tweet is as follows:
Inkredible! The #WiiU #Splatoon Premium Pack comes with a copy of the game and makes a splash on 19/06! pic.twitter.com/UrwhObYWb9

Thus far, we’ve seen Bravely Default and Bravely Second. There’s no question that the series will continue, and producer Tomoya Asano is already thinking about a third entry.
Speaking with Famitsu this week, Asano said:
“I don’t know what to say about that at this time [with Bravely Second releasing soon] but I already have some ideas for Bravely Third in my head. If Bravely Second sells well, I plan on presenting plans for it right away. Thank you for your continued support.”
