Above are the rewards for those who reached Gold/Platinum on Club Nintendo this year.

Gold status members can choose from the Club Nintendo Original Calender, Super Mario Kart, Metroid II: Return of Samus, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again, or The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. These rewards are available to Platinum members as well, along with Platinum Mario Playing Cards and Limited Edition Platinum Poster Set.

The Gold/Platinum rewards page was temporarily removed for some odd reason, but it should be back soon.

Update: It’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle for PlayStation 3. A trailer can be seen here. And so our coverage of this mystery ends on Nintendo Everything!

As it turns out, there’s more teasing to be had for Namco Bandai’s All Star Battle.

Yet another update has arrived on the project’s official site. It now says “0 day” with all images filled in.

Could this be the final update? Will we be receiving an announcement soon?

Out of Nintendo’s entire stable of franchises, Hiroyuki Takahashi has said that he’d be most interested in working on Donkey Kong.

The Camelot president told Nintendo Gamer in its July issue that the series “would prove really interesting” since its “games are full of surprises.” He pointed to Donkey Kong 64 specifically in his response.

Speaking of Donkey Kong 64, Takahashi noted that he “would love to make a sequel to it.”

Perhaps this could happen… one day. Camelot does have a pretty close relationship with Nintendo, though the company has mostly stuck to Mario Tennis and Golden Sun titles in recent years.

Scan the QR code above with your to add Denise Richards to your Mii collection. This does seem random on Nintendo’s part, but I guess there are some folks out there who’d be interested in bringing the actress to their 3DS.

Even six months after the initial talk started, we’re still seeing people ask Shigeru Miyamoto about his eventual retirement. One investor at Nintendo’s most recent shareholders meeting asked how the company will carry on once Miyamoto departs.

Both Shigeru Miyamoto and Satoru Iwata weighed in on the situation.

Miyamoto said that he’s been taking on fewer responsibilities overall as younger employees serve as the “main roles” for series like Mario Kart and Super Mario. He later teased some of the vague ideas he has in mind for the future.

Iwata added that “Miyamoto still will be actively creating things but we are working for the transition of power to go to younger people at the same time.”

Head past the break for the entire commentary on the topic.
