Early Japanese sales of Pokemon X/Y stemmed from college student business – not kids.

Media Create points out in its latest report that children are occupied with school exams. However, X and Y have been a huge hit with older players, or more specifically, people in college.

Pokemon X/Y’s sales should take an interesting turn over the next few weeks as the younger demographic will have a better opportunity to purchase the games.

Batman: Arkham Origins’ release on Nintendo platforms has been pushed back a couple of weeks in Europe. The Wii U version, as well as Batman: Arkham Origins – Blackgate on 3DS, will now ship on November 8.

In the US, Batman: Arkham Origins will be cheaper on Wii U due to the lack of online multiplayer. But in Europe, a similar discount hasn’t been announced.

DualShockers has managed to obtain the full lineup of deal’s for GameStop’s Black Friday shopping event next month. For Nintendo fans, what’s most notable is the inclusion of two unannounced 3DS bundles.

Included in GameStop’s flyer are Zelda and Luigi’s Mansion bundles. The former contains a gold 3DS XL and a digital copy of A Link Between Worlds while the latter is comprised of a blue 3DS system and a pre-installed copy of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Pricing is set at $219.99 and $169.99 respectively.

Nintendo did announce the specially-designed Zelda 3DS system for Europe earlier this week, but it had yet to be confirmed for the US. Neither bundle mentioned in GameStop’s ad has been officially announced for North America just yet. However, you can expect that to change sometime within the next few weeks.

A bug in Pokemon X/Y was uncovered earlier this week, and it’s a pretty significant one. Ultimately, the glitch – encountered when saving at certain points in Lumiose City – could destroy players’ games.

Thankfully, Nintendo is aware of the issue. The company is working with Game Freak to prepare and release a patch. Expect an update to hit the eShop in a few days.

As far as saving goes, Nintendo has provided an image advising players where they should avoid doing so for the time being:
