Nintendo, HAL reveal new BoxBoy! game
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 8 Comments
Nintendo and HAL Laboratory have revealed a sequel to the 3DS eShop hit BoxBoy!, which is actually out in Japan right now. The game is BoxBoy: Mou Hito Hako (roughly BoxBoy! One More Box).
Here’s the official trailer:
In the second game of the BoxBoy! series, players once again control Qbby, who can unleash boxes just like in the first entry. You’ll need to head to the goal while passing through obstacles. Qbby is powered up in this title, as he can now dish out two boxes at a time. Nintendo says that the stages are also undauntedly powered up, and await Qbby with new gimmicks.
Medals collected in the different levels provide costumes, musics, and comics. Those with save data from the first BoxBoy! can also use costumes from that game.
BoxBoy: Mou Hito Hako is available now via the Japanese eShop for 680 yen. 712 blocks of free space on an SD card are required for the download.

Zen Studios says it’s still supporting Wii U, but no news on The Force Awakens Pack currently
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Zen Studios has bringing out new content for its pinball platforms pretty regularly. This includes Zen Pinball 2, which has been available on Wii U since 2013. DLC has definitely been slowing down for Nintendo’s console though, and there are still many tables we’re waiting on that have been out on other systems for quite some time.
Zen Studios actually announced yet another table today – one based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The company’s Steven Hopper says support is still planned for Wii U, but he has nothing to share about a release date.
Here’s his full comment:
“Regarding Wii U, we’re definitely still supporting the system, but at this time we have not revealed plans for The Force Awakens Pack on Wii U. We’ll be sure to alert the Wii U community as that changes.”
