Nintendo has opened the full North American website for Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash. You can find it here. As usual, the site houses a trailer, screenshots, and gameplay information.

Yesterday, Anna the Robber was added to Fire Emblem Fates as the latest piece of DLC. Players can recruit the Fire Emblem: Awakening character by clearing a particular map. For a look at the DLC, watch the video below.

Atlus issued a new Stella Glow trailer today focusing on Song Magic. View it below, along with a description of the game’s mechanic.

Song Magic. It’s one of the core mechanics in Stella Glow – only 5 people on the planet know how to use Song Magic, and coincidentally, all of them are Witches. Unfortunately, one of those 5 is hell-bent on wiping out all of humanity. THANKS, HILDA.

But the good news is that as the protagonist Alto, you’ll be able to recruit Witches to join your party and as the Song Stone meter gradually fills during the game’s battles, you’ll be able to use tide-turning song magic to debuff or damage enemies, or heal allies! It all depends on which Witch you use and well, your own particular brand of playstyle since the strategy RPG offers many, many ways to win in battle.

But as we’ve talked about earlier, spending portions of the game’s Free Time to tune a Witch’s heart will unlock more song magic (and increase your bond with them!) check out more about song magic in the latest trailer!

Some may be interested to know that the newly-launched 3DS NFC reader/writer accessory runs on two AA batteries. In the actual package, Nintendo has included these so you can begin using the peripheral right away. The 3DS NFC adapter doesn’t require a ton of power, so I imagine you won’t need to swap batteries too often!
