A new guest is arriving in StreetPass Mii Plaza. That’s right! Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime is starting to go out to 3DS owners, at least in North America.

The special Mii is being distributed in celebration of E3 / National StreetPass week. In case you’re wondering, it shows that Reggie’s been playing Hyrule Warriors Legends recently.

Thanks to Duarte N for the tip.

Geoff Keighley, the man behind The Game Awards, made it pretty clear that we’d be seeing the show return this year. We didn’t know when it’d take place, but December was always a safe bet based on prior events.

A banner shown outside the doors of E3 now reveals a specific date. The Game Awards 2016 will take place on December 1. This summer, we’ll be getting more details.

Keighley will also be hosting a new gaming awards initiative later in the year. The Kids’ Game Awards are set for October, and Nintendo is on the advisory board.

Nintendo brought the 2DS to Japan earlier this year as a means of promoting the re-release of the Pokemon classics: Yellow, Red, Blue, and Green. They’ve been on sale as limited items since, and now their production is ending. As they’re the only 2DS systems available, the system as a whole won’t be sold any longer in Japan.

It’s taken awhile, but Mighty No. 9 will finally be launching this month. Things unfortunately did not go smooth for the game, as it was pushed back quite a few times.

Creator Keiji Inafune once again apologized for the delays while speaking with 4Gamer. He told the site:

“We deeply apologize to the fans and backers for having taken much longer than expected. I learned again how difficult it can be to make a game. (The reason of delay) was not because we were shorthanded, but due to how we were going to sell it, and then biting more than we can chew after declaring that it will be released for all the hardware. But it was a good [learning] experience.”
