New Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure characters have landed at retailers. The new characters include Hex, Dino-Rang and Wrecking Ball.

Kids can bring the new characters to life in the Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure video game or at the Skylanders Spyro’s Universe web world available at the following URL: http://universe.skylanders.com/.

Hex adds to the female roster and is from the undead elemental class. Her Wall of Bones upgrade keeps her safe when baddies come after her. She’s also really good at evading enemies with her ranged attacks.

Dino-rang, a funny looking green dude from the earth elemental class, hurls boomerangs at his enemies. His boomerangs start out as stone but can quickly turn into volcanic glass when kids upgrade him. His Obsidian Armor is the ultimate in fashion-meets-function.

Finally, Wrecking Ball is a hungry blue party animal from the magic elemental class. He enjoys taking down villains by using his Tongue Whap to do some quick damage. He also has a Power Belch, allowing him to release the ultimate burp attack.

Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure is now available at retailers for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PC and 3DS.

Reggie Fils-Aime will be making an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight. He’ll be bringing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword to the show, according to the Nintendo of America Twitter account.

“Catch tonight’s episode of Late Night with @JimmyFallon and #SkywardSword.”

Reggie will probably be asked about the Wii U as well, and he’ll probably say absolutely nothing.

In any case, you can catch Reggie on the show tonight at 12:35 AM.

Remember how Nintendo of Europe sneakily announced 3D Classics: Kirby’s Adventure? Well, now we have the first footage, courtesy of the 3DS eShop. Unfortunately, we still have yet to hear if this game will be released in North America/Japan. My gut says it will, but you never know…

Gradually, Zelda games have seen the princess take on a more prominent role. Spirit Tracks even allowed players to control her through Phantoms.

What about the future, though? Could Zelda eventually star in a game of her own? The short answer: Nintendo isn’t sure, though they could be open to the idea in the future.

Aonuma provided the following response when asked about the possibility:

“The way we present Zelda is always a topic when we think about creating a game. Normally she would be kidnapped and someone would save her in the end. But this time (with Skyward Sword) we decided to give Zelda more personality and provide more information about her. Of course, in presenting the character in more detail, it can be questioned whether or not she should have her own game. Perhaps it is an idea we can think about in the future, but for now I do not know.”

Thanks to Tim for the tip/translation!
