It’s been a long wait for Rune Factory 4 in Europe, but the game appears to be arriving next week. The 3DS eShop currently lists a December 11 release date – that’d be next Thursday. It’s technically not confirmed, though I’d say that date is very likely at the moment.

Smash Bros. not to blame for Wii U error code 160-0103
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 9 Comments
There’s been a lot of talk lately about Wii U error code “160-0103”. There’s also been a lot of discussion about how Super Smash Bros. is primarily causing the issue.
Blaming Smash Bros. for error code 160-0103 is actually the wrong thing to be doing. A post over on Reddit mentions that there have been plenty of other Wii U games that have caused the same problem, ranging from Super Mario 3D World to Batman: Arkham Origins.
The point is Smash Bros. is just one of many games associated with error code 160-0103. There isn’t an issue with the title itself. We can’t confirm this, but the trouble could be due to a faulty internal flash chip or worn flash chip.

Actor hired to wear Donkey Kong costume at 2013 L.A. Zoo event files lawsuit against Nintendo
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 15 Comments
Last year, Nintendo held an event at the Los Angeles Zoo to celebrate the launch of Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. The company went as far as to hire an actor – Parker Mills – to wear a Donkey Kong costume.
Mills has now filed a lawsuit against Nintendo, claiming that he was denied breaks and was not provided with the required ice pack to cool him down as he talked to zoo guests. The actor’s attorneys say that he suffered an aortic dissection and was forced to undergo surgery to implant a permanent heart defibrillator.
Mills’ lawsuit ultimately alleges, as reported by the LA Times, “that the company ambassador who was hired to escort him and oversee and control his activities failed to provide the proper oversight.”
Nintendo has not yet shared an official comment about the situation.
