GungHo Online Entertainment has opened a website for the just-announced Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition. Access it here.

On the page, we have confirmation that Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is coming to Japan on April 29. You can get a small look at the boxart above.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is coming to the 3DS, GungHo Online Entertainment announced today. The new game was revealed just a short while ago during the company’s “New Games Presentation”.

Shigeru Miyamoto took the stage and stated that he began noticing Puzzle & Dragons after seeing Nintendo developers playing it. He was also struck by the work ethic of the people at GungHo.

Eventually, discussions led to last year’s 3DS title Puzzle & Dragons Z, though Nintendo wanted to do more. Since they felt Mario making a guest character wouldn’t be enough for the audience of that franchise, Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition was created.

Below are the first gameplay details:

– Puzzle PRG
– Begins in the Mushroom Kingdom
– Bowser has harvested the power of a mysterious “Drop” that suddenly appeared
– Princess Peach kidnapped once again
– Up to Mario to save her
– Mario will do battle in the style of Puzzle & Dragons puzzle battles, befriending other Mario series characters on the way
– Supports StreetPass
– Local multiplayer functionality

Check out some screengrabs from the debut trailer below. We’ll post the full video once it’s available.

Three Durarara!! characters will be showing up in Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker. Unfortunately though, these cameos probably won’t be appearing in the game’s western version.

Update: Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D Limited Edition now sold out on Best Buy! That was very quick!


Well, this is certainly strange! Even though Nintendo said yesterday that The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D Limited Edition would only available at Amazon, GameStop, and Fry’s, it’s currently up for pre-order on Best Buy.

You can place an order here. Be quick, as stock will likely sell out fast.

In a recent issue of Famitsu, it was confirmed that Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker will feature characters from Durarara!!, a Japanese light novel series. Celty Sturluson, Izaya Orihara, and Shizuo Heiwajima will all see cameo appearances.

Famitsu doesn’t go into much detail regarding their involvement, but they will partake in battle. We should learn more in the weeks ahead.

If you’re wondering what the connection is between Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker and Durarara!!, artist Suzuhito Yasuda worked on character designs for both projects.
