Fire Emblem: Awakening should be available to those who pre-ordered the title from GameStop starting tomorrow. The retailer posted a message on its Facebook page making note of the date, but didn’t indicate if you’ll be able to head to a local store without a pre-registration.

In other Fire Emblem news, the special blue 3DS bundle will be available by Friday.

GameStop’s notice reads:

“Official Update Regarding Fire Emblem: We expect Fire Emblem Awakening to be available to our pre-order customers by tomorrow, February 6th. The Blue Fire Emblem 3DS system is expected to be in U.S. GameStop stores by this Friday, February 8th.”

Japanese retailer Rakuten listed Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 earlier today, leading to speculation that the Wii U title would be going multiplatform. This week’s Famitsu confirms the news.

In addition to all of the content made available on Wii U, the PS3/360 release will include 25 “Ninja Trials” along with new costumes.

It’s a bit peculiar seeing Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge on new platforms. While it’s technically a Team Ninja title, Nintendo originally published the game in both North America and Europe. Tecmo Koei should be handling distribution duties for the new versions in Japan.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Skylanders is “mixing it up” with the newest game in the award-winning, top-selling franchise. Skylanders SWAP Force builds upon the success of the franchise’s signature gameplay and collectible toy experience and adds a dimension to the “toys to life” innovation. The game introduces an all-new play pattern — dynamic swapability — that lets gamers reconfigure 16 SWAP Force inter-action figures into more than 250
unique characters by swapping the top and bottom halves of the toys. Now, Portal Masters can mix and match characters’ powers and moves and experience an unprecedented level choice than ever before seen in a Skylanders game. Fans also can play Skylanders SWAP Force with their entire collection of characters from Skylanders Spyro’s AdventureTM and Skylanders GiantsTM.

Skylanders SWAP Force features new abilities – such as flying, climbing, digging, bouncing, or teleporting – which can be used in previously unexplored areas of Skylands centered on these play mechanics. Additionally, the game features 16 new standard figures, eight new LightCore™ characters and 16 new versions of fan favorite Skylanders from previous games. Now kids will have more than 100 characters from which to choose. The game’s high-resolution graphics brings detailed characters and richer environments to life, immersing players in the game like never before.

Nintendo teamed up with Ubisoft in Europe to launch a ZombiU Wii U bundle, but NOA decided not to follow the same path. Now, however, one retailer is listing a similar product… for Canada.

Located on Best Buy’s site here is a new “Limited Edition” Wii U 32GB ZombiU Deluxe Set. Pricing is set at $399.99, and a February 17 release date is listed.

It’d be nice if Nintendo made this bundle available throughout North America!
