Thought you’d never see a Monster Hunter game outside of Japan again? Well, think again, because it has just been confirmed that Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, an enhanced version of the Wii’s Monster Hunter Tri, will see a western release on both the Wii U and 3DS consoles. The Wii U version will feature online multiplayer with the ability to transfer save data between the two versions. Finally the 3DS has transfarring!

The 3DS version, known as Monster Hunter Tri G in Japan, was initially released in Japan a year ago, but both versions of the game should be available in the US and Europe in March 2013.

You may have come across some speculation on certain publications that Game Boy Advance games could become an official platform for the 3DS Virtual Console. Essentially, the rumor came about when Dr. Mario was shown on Nintendo of Australia’s website as a GBA game that would be released soon on the eShop.

This was, in reality, nothing more than an error. The Dr. Mario entry was intended to be for the Game Boy version, which is already out on the eShop.

Nintendo of Australia said in a statement:

“Nintendo Australia would like to confirm the recent update to the website highlighting Game Boy Advance titles are available on Nintendo eShop was posted in error. Nintendo Australia can confirm there are no current plans for Game Boy Advance games to be released on Virtual Console for Nintendo 3DS. We would also like to confirm Dr. Mario is available as a Game Boy title on Virtual Console via Nintendo eShop. We would like to apologise for any confusion this has caused. Game Boy Advance games on the Nintendo 3DS of course remain for all Ambassadors, this hasn’t changed.”

No, this isn’t Wii U news, but it’s big news nonetheless!

According to the latest CoroCoro, Pokemon: Mysterious Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labrynth is in the works for the 3DS. The fully-3D game has you playing as a character who turns into Pikachu after falling into a dream. Oshawott, Axew, Snivy and Tepig will be available as partner Pokemon. Fans can expect Unova Pokemon to make an appearance, including Gurdurr, Hydreigon and Virizion.

Dunsparce hands out quest requests. Cofagrigus runs a store. Also confirmed is that Rampardos runs the Treasure Store. Kecleon is back as well and he’ll run a general goods store.

Take a look at the first “scans” of Pokemon: Mysterious Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labrynth above.

Platforming Fans: You have a new game to buy. I’m not kidding either.

MegaMan 2 was a game I grew up on. I never beat it as a kid- it would be ten years until that accomplishment- but I played it more than any other NES title I owned, plowing through the harrowing platforming puzzles, dodging beams of light on FlashMan’s stage, and cursing (as good as any 6 year old could, anyhow) at the frustrating spikes scattered about BubbleMan’s underwater fortress. By age 8 I had beaten every robot master thirty times over, and though I never defeated Wily himself, I got as close as anyone else my age.

I was- and still consider myself to be- a very skilled platformer.

It is with great consideration, then, that I concede (temporary) defeat in front of the latest game I have had the pleasure of reviewing. That game is ‘Fractured Soul’, a dual-screen platformer from the makers of nothing you’ve likely heard of. If you want to know more about the developer, you can read my interview with them here. If you want to know more about my concession to ‘Fractured Soul’?

Simply hit the break and I’ll tell you all about it.
