Nintendo is launching Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions on October 6. For those who want to prepare for the release digitally, the pre-load option has gone live on the eShop. You’ll need 4,389 blocks / 548.625MB of free space.

Pre-loading allows users to buy game in advance and download most of the required data. Nintendo will then issue an update on release day, allowing fans to begin playing almost immediately.

Thanks to Alexander M for the tip.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

At the Tokyo Game Show earlier today, the primary winners announced for the Japan Game Awards 2017. Nintendo was a big winner at the event, especially due to Zelda: Breath of the Wild taking home the Grand Award.

Zelda: Breath of the Wild was also selected for the Award of Excellence along with Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon. The Pokemon games also won the Global Award for Japanese products.

Here’s the full roundup of awards:

Atlus has a new Etrian Odyssey V trailer focusing on the Harbinger class. We have the video along with a brief introduction below.

Wielding both a giant scythe and the mysterious energy known as miasma, Harbingers are reapers of destruction ready to protect you at a moment’s notice. Besides being able to dish out the damage by cutting down swaths of enemies, Harbingers can harness the powers of miasma to help the party or hurt enemies. Using TP, they can summon powerful miasma armor with passive support or status ailment abilities (like curse, paralyze, etc…). Be warned though, wearing the armor will drain a little bit of HP. They might be an unconventional class, but can be a force to be reckoned with in the right hands.

A trio of retailers are planning a special bonus for Pokemon Gold / Pokemon Silver on the Virtual Console. Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop are all providing the theme pictured above. The offer applies to both versions of the game.
