3DS

Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure has a bunch of collaborations with other popular franchises. We previously heard about partnerships with series like Yo-kai Watch and Monster Hunter, and this week Bandai Namco confirmed a few more with the likes of Kirby and Assassination Classroom. Famitsu shares a few extra details in its latest issue.

Here’s the breakdown:

– From Kirby: Kirby and King Dedede. Contrary to their cute looks, they also have powerful performances.
– From Studio Ghibli: Mauchu from the Taiko no Tatsujin 15th anniversary animation.
– From Assassination Classroom: Korosensei. He has a Taiko Magic named “Healing Time” which recovers ally HP.
– From Kanasama Minarai: Himitsu no Kokotama: Rakitama. It can recover ally HP.
– From Ace Attorney: Phoenix Wright – Defense type character who reduces damage taken by other ally characters.

These characters will be specifically available in the game’s RPG-like Mystery Adventure mode. Here, players can travel around different areas and battle various enemies. Bandai Namco is packing in more than 100 monsters.

If you’re planning on picking up Monster Hunter Generations in July, you may want to reserve it at GameStop. The retailer will be giving out a 3DS theme to those who pre-order. This offer is valid both in-store and online.

Aside from the game itself, Nintendo and Capcom are also planning a special New 3DS XL. That can be pre-ordered at Best Buy here or GameStop here.

Puzzle & Dragons X’s Japanese launch is fast approaching, and Famitsu published another feature on the title this week. The latest coverage includes details on game features, monsters, and more.

Here’s the rundown:

News from this month’s issue of V Jump has started to emerge. The magazine has an update on Dragon Ball: Fusions, and confirms that the title is coming out on August 4 in Japan. Fusions has not yet been announced for other territories.

V Jump also reveals a new fusion between Gohan and Trunks known as “Gohanks”. This is a collaboration of sorts between Fusions and another Dragon Ball game, Dragon Ball Heroes. There are two versions of Gohanks, and it’s possible to have both fusion versions in each game.

Here are the details:

– To have Dragon Ball Heroes Gohanks in Dragon Ball Fusions: when playing Heroes, a QR code to unlock him in Fusions will appear, so scan it in Fusions
– To have Dragon Ball Fusions Gohanks in Dragon Ball Heroes: the first print incentive for Fusions contains a code card that can be inputted in Dragon Ball Heroes

You can see the latest V Jump scans below. They’re unfortunately a bit hard to see, but they do show the Gohanks fusion and a look at the boxart and a New 3DS bundle.

One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum is in development for 3DS, according to the latest issue of Jump.

Specifics on the game are mostly unknown at the moment. It’s confirmed to be a 2D battle action game, and features a mode where you sail around the world and build a team of your favorite pirates. By defeating rivals, your prize money will steadily increase. Combos and simple controls are also included.

There’s no word yet as to when One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum will be available.
