3DS

Update: Now gone. Only lasted a few minutes.


Original: Amazon France is taking pre-orders for the Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition. You can reserve it here.

Despite the page saying otherwise, Amazon France will ship to the US. However, unlike Switch, 3DS is region-locked. You’ll need a European system to actually play the game. Or perhaps you’re interested in the extras.

This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

Ever Oasis (3DS) – 9/9/8/8
Hey! Pikmin (3DS) – 8/8/8/9
Farpoint (PS4) – 8/8/8/8
Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas (NSW) – 8/7/7/7
Hakoniwa Company Works (PS4) – 7/7/6/7
Super Dungeon Bros. (PS4) – 6/7/7/7

The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu has revealed that Atlus’ Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux for 3DS will launch in Japan on October 26th this year. The game will be released in Europe and North America in 2018.

Atlus will also hold a livestream on Niconico on July 9 at 19:30 JST to reveal some new information about the game and show some gameplay footage.

A new Pokemon scan has emerged for Takara Tomy A.R.T.S battle products promoting an Ultra Beast line. That wouldn’t be noteworthy in most instances, but a mystery addition is to the right of Silvally in the image above. Some are speculating that this could be a brand new addition or form for the series that will be featured in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon.

News about Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon has been absent since the original announcement last month. With E3 out of the way and the two games a few months out, hopefully we’ll hear more soon.
