The Japanese launch of Cardfight!! Vanguard: Ride to Victory has been less than smooth. Users have been complaining of game crashes and other issues.

Furyu is, thankfully, working on a fix. The company is planning on publishing an update in the near future, but an exact date for its release has not yet been determined.

Nintendo Everything reader Cameron Thomas has brought an interesting retailer finding to our attention. UK outlet ShopTo is listing the “Animal Crossing Limited Edition Console Bundle 3DS” on its website with a release date of June 14 – the same day Animal Crossing: New Leaf launches in Europe.

ShopTo mentions that Animal Crossing is pre-installed on the  system. A small box shot of the Japanese 3DS Animal Crossing bundle is included on the product page, too.

Could Nintendo be gearing up for a western Animal Crossing 3DS bundle announcement? One would assume that it’s the same product that Japan received last year. Perhaps we’ll hear something during this week’s Nintendo Direct…

Update: Nintendo of America has confirmed a Nintendo Direct as well. You’ll be able to watch it here.

A new Nintendo Direct broadcast will air in just a couple of days. The presentation will focus entirely on the 3DS, it seems. If there’s any Wii U content, it’ll be minimal.

The Nintendo Direct will be streamed at 10 AM ET / 7 AM ET / 3 PM UK time. If Nintendo of America/Japan confirm similar presentations, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate is running on a modified version of the Bluepoint Engine, the game’s developer has revealed. Armature Studio shared the tidbit on Twitter when asked by a fan a few days ago.

Bluepoint Engine has powered titles such as Blast Factor and God of War Collection. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale also takes advantage of the technology.

Majeso appears to be shipping Crash City Mayhem in North America, and the game could just be a few weeks away from launching.

We’ve come across a listing on GameFly that lists a plausible May 14 date. The retailer also posted the North American boxart for Crash City Mayhem. Take a look:

Crash City Mayhem originally launched in Japan in January 2012 as Runabout 3D. Ghostlight confirmed plans to distribute the title in Europe last July, but we haven’t heard anything since.
