Indie studio Nnooo is set to release their previously announced endless shooter, “Blast ‘Em Bunnies”, on the 3DS eShop on March 10th. The game will cost $/€4.99. The game will also launch for PS4, Vita, and Xbox One around the same time.

Nnooo’s description of the game from their press release reads:

Blast ‘Em Bunnies pits you the player as a cute, cartoon bunny called Bang Bang who must defend your rabbit burrow, against an onslaught of evil bunnies. These bunnies have captured your offspring and one of them, the evil Throatslitter, is holding them hostage. Just how long can you and your little ‘uns survive? Grab your carrot rifle, watermelon machine gun, turnip mortar or runner bean laser and take them down! Shoot coins to collect them and spend them on new weapons, upgrades and ammo including sticky raspberries, heat seeking chilli seeds, shredding leek lasers or bouncing, splitting, exploding pumpkin bombs!

The game will launch with purchasable extra content, such as arenas and skins. Details are below:

5 Arena Packs: US$/€ 1.99 each. Each one contains a new arena, day/night system and 3 new music tracks
5 Skin Packs: US$/€ 2.99 each. Each one contains 21 new skins (3 for each bunny type)

“Malo” is back with his latest Twilight Princess HD on the Japanese Zelda Twitter page. Today, the character talks a bit more about Hero Mode.

Here’s our translation:

“…It’s Malo. In Hero Mode, the world becomes horizontally reversed… You also take twice the damage… You look so glad aren’t you… then stack it up with Ganondorf’s amiibo… You’ll take 4 times more damage then. …You look really glad now. So you have such a hobby eh…”
