Remember how Zen Pinball 2 was supposed to arrive on the Wii U eShop this month? Well, today’s the last “Nintendo Download” of December, and the game won’t be out in either North America and Europe.

So where is the game? Nintendo of Europe’s site actually lists a December 27 release – which would be today – but it doesn’t look like it’ll be ready for prime time.

Maybe next month…

A whole bunch of Japanese companies shared plans for 2013 in this week’s Famitsu. The feature was mostly filled with teases and hints for the future.

The Wii U version of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate doesn’t feature keyboard support. It’s possible to use an on-screen HUD, but you can’t plug in a USB device and type away.

This could change in the future. At Jump Festa 2013 this past weekend, some of the game’s staffers hinted that Ultimate could be getting keyboard down the line. It’d be rather nice to have this feature available through an update by the time the localized version hits store shelves.


As part of its send-off festivities, Nintendo Power compiled a list of the top 285 Nintendo games of all time. The magazine specifically chose the number since 285 issues were produced since its inception in 1988.

We have the entire lineup of games below – yes, all 285 games! Head past the break for the listing.


From the pages of the latest issue of Famitsu, Tecmo Koei shared information regarding the first downloadable content in Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2. Amiba, Han, and Nameless Asura will all be joining the game as playable characters. Apparently there’s a risqué costume for Rin on the way as well.
