Rather than focusing on gameplay, the latest Fire Emblem Fates video shows off a cut-scene from the Conquest version. Check it out below – just be wary of spoilers!

Earlier today, Level-5 published the first Yo-kai Sangokushi trailer. It not only showed the game in proper video form for the first time, but it also contained another nugget of information.

Yo-Kai Sangokushi will offer both online and local multiplayer. Up to four players will be able to participate in battles.

Towards the beginning of last month, we heard about a new “Star Fox Limited Edition Fox McCloud Stone Statue” sold by GameStop. Originally, it was supposed to be out on February 9. That date has passed, and statues haven’t been shipped.

Based on GameStop’s listing, the Fox McCloud figure should be available on February 22 – next Monday. If we hear about any further delays, we’ll be sure to let you know.

More information is in from this month’s NPD report. We have sales data from the United States for one of Nintendo’s systems as well as two games.

First, in terms of hardware, Wii U sold roughly 40,000 units. Debut sales for Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam and Final Fantasy Explorers also came in at 71,000 and 53,000 copies respectively.

With the games, it’s important to remember that digital sales are not included. They also launched pretty late in January, so they only have about a week of data.

During the New York Toy Fair 2016, Scott Neitlich from Jakks Pacific indicated that the company has more plans for its World of Nintendo line. Neitlich told VideoGameHeat that Splatoon figures are in the pipeline. That would be rather interesting, as we’ve yet to see any Jakks Pacific merchandise based on Splatoon as of yet.

Here is the brief statement from Neitlich:

Nintendo has announced another scheduled maintenance period after the one later today. Online play for both Wii U and 3DS will be unavailable during the following times:

– 9 PM PT (Monday) – 12 AM PT (Tuesday)
– 12 AM ET (Tuesday) – 3 AM ET (Tuesday)
– 5 AM in the UK (Tuesday) – 8 AM in the UK (Tuesday)
– 6 AM in Europe (Tuesday) – 9 AM in Europe (Tuesday)

Splatoon is such a huge hit, especially in Japan, that it doesn’t come as a huge surprise that Nintendo is taking advantage of the popularity of the IP. As such, a Splatoon manga will soon be released in Japan. It will be published in the bi-monthly manga magazine Bessatsu CoroCoro Comic starting in April.
