Update: Now sold out! Didn’t last too long, but a bit longer than expected.


I don’t see this lasting long, but the Rosalina amiibo is currently in stock on Target.com. You can place an order here. We’ll keep track of the stock situation and will update this post when the amiibo becomes unavailable!

Japanese publication Game Watch attended a location test for Pokken Tournament at the Namco Lazona Kawasaki arcade. Plenty of information was provided in the site’s report (a mix of old/new), and Gematsu translated a ton of details from the article. We’ve rounded all of the tidbits below.

– Button layout on the controller similar to ones employed in older systems like the Super Nintendo
– Controller features more modern ergonomic philosophies in terms of how its handles are designed
– d-pad, four face buttons, A, B, X, Y, Start button on the controller, plus L and R triggers

Controls:

D-Pad: Character movement. Hitting a direction twice will perform a short step.
Y Button: Weak attack.
X Button: Strong attack.
B Button: Jump.
A Button: Pokemon Move.
L Button: Summon Support Pokemon.
R Button: Guard.
L+R Buttons: Burst Mode. Press again during Burst Mode for a Burst Attack. (More details below.)
Y+B Buttons: Grab.
X+A Buttons: Block Attack. (More details below.)

The new Super Mario amiibo series seems to have disappeared from Amazon. Toad, Yoshi, Bowser, and Peach were all up for pre-order just a few days ago, but their product pages have since been removed. Pre-orders haven’t been cancelled, so there’s no need to worry just yet!

Update: A new location has been found for Apex 2015:



Apex 2015 could be over before having ever been started. A series of unexpected events may have, sadly, lead to the cancellation of the tournament.

Things began when an emergency door was opened at the hotel where Apex 2015 is being hosted. After fire marshals inspected the area, it was determined that event rooms were unsuitable. It’s also been revealed that the parking garage partially collapsed due to a recent storm in New Jersey.

The status of Apex 2015 is unclear at the moment. However, it sounds like we’re due for an official update later in the day.
