This Marth amiibo seemingly given two swords due to manufacturing error
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 35 Comments
Because of low stock, Marth has quickly become one of the rarest amiibo. But now we’ve apparently seen one Marth figure that could be the rarest of them all.
Marth typically holds just one sword. However, GameSpot was sent photos of an apparent amiibo that features two swords, due to a manufacturing error.
We can’t officially confirm the validity of the photos, so we’ll go ahead and label this a rumor just to be safe. Though GameSpot does say that it has seen three videos showing the defective Marth with his two swords. Assuming it’s true, this is definitely a sweet-looking Marth!

A small Mutant Mudds Easter egg has been discovered in Xeodrifter. One area of the game has a picture of Max shooting at an enemy along with the text, “Max woz here!”. It’s a nice little inclusion from Renegade Kid!
It’s also worth mentioning that there’s another Easter egg in Xeodrifter, according to Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham:
@NintendoTweet There are a couple of small Easter eggs in the game. 🙂

Long lines form for Youkai Watch 2: Shinuchi launch in Japan
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 9 Comments
Youkai Watch is very, very big in Japan. So it should come as no surprise that the series’ latest entry, Youkai Watch 2: Shinuchi, is already causing a craze.
Famitsu took a few photos outside Biccamera in Toshima, Tokyo’s Ikebukuro district. Youkai Watch 2: Shinuchi went on sale starting at 8 AM at most stores, though Famitsu arrived an hour earlier. The line started out with 50 people, but quickly grew to 100 by the time the game went on sale.

Mario Party 10 receives Australian rating

Mario Party 10 has now been classified in Australia. I’m not sure if this was mentioned before, but it now looks like we have official confirmation that NDCUBE is the main developer of the project. They’ve led the way on the past few Mario Party games, so that shouldn’t be a big shock to most!
