Mario & Luigi: Dream Team’s patch is now live in Japan, and apparently in overseas territories as well (can anyone confirm)? It’s not a major update, but it does address a few bugs. You can find the rundown of fixes here.

Mighty No. 9’s Kickstarter campaign originally required $2.5 million to guarantee console versions. That figure has since been reduced. So long as funds reach $2.2 million, Mighty No. 9 will officially head to the Wii U, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

Also worth noting, the making-of documentary stretch goal has also decreased by $250,000 to $1.75 million.

Over $1.5 million has been raised for Mighty No. 9 thus far in just a few days. 27 days remain in the campaign, so I think it’d be safe to assume at this point that the title will in fact come to consoles.

Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse is coming to the 3DS later this year. In addition, WayForward has just revealed a second brand new entry in the franchise slated for Wii U, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 36, and PC.

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero will be the first original series addition to appear on home consoles. The game is already a sure thing – WayForward just needs some help from fans to provide even more game content.

The studio is looking to raise $400,000 within the next month. Stretch goals include a “Risky Mode” at $500,000, various bonus chapters, and costume swap at $700,000.

Here’s the official Shantae: Half-Genie Hero story overview:

In our story, Shantae is roused from a deep sleep, suddenly alert. She plunges into the moonlit forest in search of answers. In nearby Scuttle Town she discovers a mysterious trapdoor, and beyond that, a luminous subterranean cavern. A familiar voice calls out, drawing Shantae to a beautiful fountain. Touching its waters she is immediately spirited away to the fabled Genie Realm. At her feet a magical seal swells as some powerful evil seeks escape. The chamber trembles with a deep, bellowing roar and everything goes white. Shantae sits upright, back in her bed. Was it just a dream? Or a vision of things to come?

Shantae fans should know what to expect with Half-Genie Hero. There will be plenty of hair-whipping, belly dancing, platforming, exploring, boss fights, and more.
