Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Nintendo is preparing a brand new Animal Crossing: New Leaf update for the fall. It’s a significant one, as numerous features will be added. The primary addition is amiibo functionality, as you’ll be able to unlock new content by scanning figures and cards.
Another new feature was revealed on the Japanese Animal Crossing Twitter account tonight. After applying the patch, you’ll be able to take photos with what Nintendo is calling the “amiibo camera”. Unfortunately, that’s all we really know about it currently.

Natsume on parterning with Arc System Works for River City: Tokyo Rumble, open to more series localizations
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
It was due to Natsume’s relationship with Arc System Works that River City: Tokyo Rumble was able to head west. That game originally came to Japan a few years ago, but Natsume was finally able to publish it in English at the end of last month.
Speaking about the partnership with Arc System Works and how River City: Tokyo Rumble came to be overseas, Natsu,e producer Taka Maekawa told Siliconera:
“Our partnership with Arc System Works started almost a year and a half ago through a good friend of mine in Japan. It all started with Gotcha Racing and Brave Tank Hero for the Nintendo 3DS, then continued with Super Strike Beach Volleyball and River City: Tokyo Rumble this year. With River City, I contacted Arc System Works as soon as I saw the news that Million’s title rights (who were the right holders of Tecnos Japan titles) had been transferred to Arc System Works.”
Siliconera also asked if Natsume would be open to localizing more River City games, such as the medieval spinoff for 3DS and River City Ransom SP. To this, Maekawa said:
“Of course! We are definitely open for any opportunities with other titles in the Kunio series!”

Pokemon Sun/Moon has a new Ice Stone
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Over on the Spanish Pokemon Sun/Moon website, a screenshot has been discovered showing a new Ice Stone. It’s currently unclear what it’ll be used for. One probable guess is that it can be used to evolve Alolan Vulpix to evolve into Alolan Ninetails. GameXplain also speculates that it could be a replacement for the Ice Rock needed to obtain Glaceon.
