Team Kirby Clash Deluxe update out now (version 1.1.0)
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 5 Comments
Team Kirby Clash Deluxe was a surprise release on the 3DS eShop this week. Nintendo made the title known during its Nintendo Direct a couple of days ago, and brought it out right after the presentation.
An update for Team Kirby Clash Deluxe is already available. Let me know if you’ve heard of these patch notes before: “Adjustments have been made to make for a better gaming experience.”
Even though Nintendo isn’t being upfront about the update on its website, the company’s Japanese Twitter page gives us a better idea. There were issues buying Gem Apples, though that should be fixed with today’s update.
The Snack World details
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 9 Comments
Level-5 first announced The Snack World back in 2015. During this week’s Nintendo Direct, it was finally given a Japanese release date of July 13. More details about the game are shared on the official website.
The basic gist of The Snack World is to find rare items slumbering deep inside dungeons. The protagonist is the player’s avatar whose looks can be customized.
This game will have an original scenario that’s different from the anime. However, anime characters like Chap, Mayone, and Peperon will also appear.
