Along with this image, director Masahiro Sakurai used Miiverse to fill everyone in on a few neat additions to Little Mac’s moveset. Sakurai posted:

Pic of the day. Little Mac’s side smash attack is his straight right punch…but it can transform into an uppercut if you tilt diagonally upward, or a body hook if you tilt diagonally downward. The body hook is the most devastating of these moves and it doesn’t blast the opponents away.

The trick in activating these punches is to avoid tilting the controls diagonally from the get go–instead, tilt up or down right after the smash attack starts kicking in. You can also tilt up or down while you’re powering up.

Along with this screenshot, director Masahiro Sakurai posted the following comment to Miiverse:

Pic of the day. So far, which attack can blast away enemies the most dynamically… Is it King Dedede’s fully charged Jet Hammer? Nah, it can’t beat the K.O. uppercut. You can damage yourself by overcharging this attack, so watch out.

No real surprises here! The European boxart for Kirby Triple Deluxe is pretty much the same as its North American and Japanese counterparts.

We’ve seen Mario Kart 8’s North American pack front previously, but Amazon now has a better shot of it available. And yep – looks like the red box really is happening.

On another random note, Amazon has stopped taking pre-orders for Mario Kart 8. No clue why that is, but hopefully they’ll resume again shortly.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
