Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 16 Comments
Miitomo will launch in Japan on March 17, Nintendo has announced. Pre-registration will close at 12:00 Japan time.
A specific start time (in actual hours) has not been determined just yet. Once it’s live, there will be notifications on the Nintendo Twitter account and also to pre-registered email addresses.
Previously, Nintendo confirmed plans to bring out Miitomo in March, but had not provided a specific date until today. It’s unclear when other regions will be receiving the app, though it should be sometime this month.
February 2016 NPD: Fire Emblem Fates sales breakdown by version, Project X Zone 2
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 16 Comments
We have a few more bits of information regarding Fire Emblem Fates’ debut sales in the United States, along with data for a crossover 3DS title.
Nintendo confirmed earlier today that Fates sold close to 400,000 copies between Birthright and Conquest in February, with digital sales included. NPD leaker creamsugar puts the games at a combined 315,000 units sold – less than Nintendo’s amount since eShop sales aren’t accounted for here. Birthright sold the most with 44 percent (roughly 138,600), followed by Conquest at 41 percent (roughly 129,150) and the special edition at 15 percent (roughly 47,250).
Moving on, debut sales are in for Project X Zone 2. The game sold 18,000 copies in the United States last month – not counting any eShop sales.
Note that Fire Emblem Fates and Project X Zone 2 did not have a full month of sales since they launched during the middle of February. NPD’s February reporting period ended on February 27.
Thanks to Brian for the tip.

Nintendo has issued a response to the latest NPD sales report. There’s even more good news regarding Fire Emblem Fates’ performance in the U.S. last month as well as the classic Pokemon re-releases on the eShop.
First, Nintendo says that Fire Emblem Fates sold nearly 400,000 copies when combining physical and digital versions. “This far outpaces 2013’s Fire Emblem Awakening game, the series’ previous record-holder in the United States,” according to the company.
In other news, Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow on the 3DS eShop broke the first-week sales record. Super Smash Bros. for 3DS previously held this achievement.
Head past the break to read Nintendo’s February 2016 NPD response in full.

Update: Canada – Monster Hunter Generations pre-orders live on Amazon
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Update 2 (3/10): Bumped to the top again. Monster Hunter Generations is now up on Amazon Canada
Update: Bumped to the top. Amazon has been updated with the proper 20% pre-order discount.
Original (3/7): Amazon has started taking pre-orders for Monster Hunter Generations. To reserve the game, head on over here. We’ll update this post as Generations becomes available at other retailers.
Note that the 20% Prime discount is not live yet. If you’re interested in Monster Hunter Generations though, you may want to reserve it now. There’s been a glitch with a bunch of Amazon games lately, where games that didn’t receive the discount ended up being 40% off instead. This won’t be reflected right away, but it should show up before Generations launches.
Disney Infinity 3.0 getting a Finding Dory Play Set
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 5 Comments
Disney Infinity 3.0 has a few new Play Sets planned for 2016. One of these, as leaked by the back of a Kraft Mac & Cheese box of all things, is one for Finding Dory. We don’t have any details just yet, but this certainly makes sense given how it’ll tie in nicely with the upcoming movie.
