North American WarioWare Gold boxart appears, shows new character
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
WarioWare’s North American boxart is in. The packaging image was apparently posted on the Russian Nintendo Facebook page, but was removed shortly after.
It’s always neat to look at boxarts, but this one is particularly noteworthy. We’re able to get a good look at a new character that Nintendo has yet to mention. Right by Ashley, we’re able to see a girl with a bow in her hair. The question is, who is she?
Thanks to Justin for the tip.

Tennis World Tour launches in a barely-complete state
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Tennis World Tour likely could have used some additional time in the over. According to Bigben Interactive president, the game was just 20% finished weeks before release. However, a major delay wasn’t possible due to marketing having already been in place and wanting a release in time for the French Open.
Where do we go from here? Well, Flac says that a refined version is planned for 2019. A new game is also lined up for 2020 – 2021.
As for Tennis World Tour in its current state, Flac noted that it will meet expectations having shipped 500,000 to distributors and already achieving a profit. Bigben also hopes to increase its Meta score and be in the 80s in the next few years.
