Just like in North America, the third Japanese Splatfest in Splatoon 2 has ended. We now have the results for the event that had power going up against endurance.
Team Endurance ended up taking the event. Despite being less popular, there was a slight edge – just a single percentage point – in both Solo and Team battles. That’s ultimately what propelled them to victory by a score of 2-1.

Pokemon GO has been datamined once again. Based on what players have found, Gen III Pokemon could be added during Halloween later this month.
One of the big hints we have is Pokemon GO’s upcoming loading screen, which features Duskull and Dusclops, Shuppet and Banette and Sableye. It goes without saying that these creatures are associated with Gen III. Audio clips from this generation have also been spotted in the game’s files.

Back during the summer, French website Jeuxvideo interviewed Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma. Although it had some interesting comments, the discussion largely went unnoticed. We decided to follow up with a full translation since we felt that it was a pretty worthwhile interview.
Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and art director Satoru Takizawa were the participants this time around. The two were asked about the game’s difficulty in relation to The Master Trials, why Hero’s Path Mode wasn’t in place originally and was instead added as DLC, timeline talk, and even the possibility of Zelda II remake – plus more.
Continue on below for our full translation.
