Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns — Meet Kasumi, the second bachelorette
Posted on 7 years ago by Fernando in 3DS, News | 0 comments
XSEED Games have published on their Facebook account the introduction of another bachelorette that will be a marriage possibility in the coming Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns.
This time the bacholerette is Kasumi, the refined teacher from Tsuyukusa Town. Check out her introduction below:
Greetings. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. My name is Kasumi.
…
…
Excuse me. I am not much for “small talk.”
Introduce myself? Very well.
I teach basic learning, such as reading and writing, to children at a nearby schoolhouse. However, my place of birth is far from Tsuyukusa. My father is a scholar, and I received a classical education from a governess. This included ancient literature and poetry—of which I am fond—as well as painting and martial arts.
I am not…accustomed to holding conversations with the opposite sex. I much prefer female company or even solitude, and I typically spend my time off working on my calligraphy or practicing with the naginata and the bow. These activities encourage reflection, mindfulness, and self-discipline. Talking with men encourages nothing of the sort.
I do not much care for sweets and will usually pass any I receive along to Komari or Yuzuki, who are more than happy to oblige me by receiving them. Other than desserts, I enjoy many of Tsuyukusa’s traditional dishes. I am rather fond of living here, even though I am separated from my mother and father. It is a peaceful town full of friendly people.
Now, if you will excuse me, I must be going.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
Nintendo has brought out a small update for Super Mario Run, bringing the game up to version 1.1.1. It’s small in nature, as it only appears to implement bug fixes. You’ll need 167 MB for the download.
It goes without saying that Super Mario Run’s update is only for iOS users. The mobile title has yet to launch on Android, although that’ll be changing next month.

Fire Emblem Heroes “Choose your Legends” vote – results incoming
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 5 Comments
The Fire Emblem Heroes “Choose your Legends” vote wrapped up last week. Since then, fans have been wondering when we’ll be hearing about the results. It won’t be much longer, thankfully.
Nintendo said on the Japanese Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account that the results will be shared on Thursday. It’s Wednesday already in Japan, so we can basically expect to hear something within the next day or so.
Plenty of Fire Emblem aficionados participated in the vote. Nintendo said last Wednesday that 1.2 million votes were recorded.
