Dataminers have found some interesting tidbits inside the game data from Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World. Notably, a Corrin costume has been discovered that Yoshi will wear when using the unreleased Corrin amiibo.

Though Corrin was added to Super Smash Bros for Wii U and 3DS last year, we still don’t know when we’ll see the remaining amiibo figures corresponding with the last characters added. The inclusion of a Corrin costume inside Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World indicates that at least Nintendo is already preparing the amiibo functionalities ahead of their launch, which could be soon.

The launch of forma.8, the latest game from Futuridium EP Deluxe developer MixedBag Games, was targeted for February after a development of almost three years.

And now they have just confirmed that forma.8 will definitely meet that launch window, coming out on Wii U sometime next month. Having passed both Nintendo of America and Europe processes, it’s only a matter of time before they divulge the day it will launch on Wii U.

A port of forma.8 for 3DS is also planned for a future date.

Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma is giving a lot of information about Breath of the Wild lately. In an interview with French site Gameblog, Aonuma was able to clear up some uncertainty surrounding HD Rumble.

Even though there has been some speculation about the new game including this feature, Aonuma confirms that HD Rumble won’t be supported. His words, roughly translated, are as follows:

“Of course, if the game had been created exclusively for the Switch, we could benefit from the unique capabilities of the machine, including HD Rumble. It is quite extraordinary, for example, you can try to guess how many balls are hidden in the controller … That’s something I would have liked to use.”

In the same interview, Aonuma reconfirms that both versions of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Switch and Wii U – will offer the same exact gameplay experience.

Nintendo will be joining the lineup of sponsors for the 2017 Kids’ Choice Awards. It’s unclear what exactly that role entails, but the show does at least have backing from the big N.

You may have forgotten, but there was a neat little Nintendo segment at the Kids’ Choice Awards last year. Mario and Luigi showed up to present once of the winners, and a live-action Mario sequence was created.
