Alongside some new videos, Capcom also revealed some details about the DLC that The Great Ace Attorney is getting.

The DLC will come in weekly episodes called “issues” of “Randst Magazine”, priced at 300 yen each. If you know your Holmes lore, you’ll know that this is a reference to Strand Magazine, a magazine in which Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories were originally published before they were released as books and anthologies.

Each “issue” of Randst Magazine will feature some short episodic content along with some making-of / behind the scenes content like artwork and music. If you buy the game before July 19th, you’ll get the first issue for free.

The Great Ace Attorney will be released in Japan on July 9th. A Western release date has not yet been announced.

A new week, a new challenge! To add to Pokémon Shuffle’s many events and challenges, there is now a chance to get a Manectite for your Manectric with the new Mega Manectric challenge!

Similar to previous challenges with Lucario, Blastoise, and others, this Mega Manectric event will be a timed one that has you competing with other Pokémon Shuffle players in your region for a chance to be ranked to receive your Manectite, which can’t be obtained by normal means. To qualify for the Manectite, you must be one of the top 20k in Europe, 40k in North America, and 50k in Japan. In addition to this, if you are in the top 10k in Europe, 20k in North America, or 50k in Japan, you will receive a Mega Start, while the top 3k in Europe, 6k in North America, and 15k in Japan will obtain a Mega Speedup along with the previously mentioned.

As usual with these events, if you don’t rank, you will still be awarded for trying with a Jewel. Don’t forget to hit that Check In button to update your game and gain access to the event! The Mega Manectric stage will last until July 6th. Good luck!

Let’s Talk is on a one week break so that I can give the spotlight to a very important site topic. The feature will be back in full force next week!


With each passing anniversary on Nintendo Everything, I’ve thought about doing this forever. I can’t properly express how much I love the site, and how it’s become extremely embedded in my daily life.

There’s very little that I won’t do for Nintendo Everything – whether that means putting it ahead of my personal life, sleep, health… you name it. For nearly eight years, that’s the way things have been. That’s largely because I love being in a position to write about Nintendo in some form. I also take great happiness in knowing that I’m able to share updates about the company with you all.

Everything sounds fantastic, right? Well, in reality, that isn’t entirely the case. I think I may have been in denial a bit in terms of how long Nintendo Everything can continue on. Okay, that probably sounds way too dramatic. Let me try to explain what’s been on my mind and why this post is even necessary.

Over the past year or two, I’ve been taking a serious look at Nintendo Everything’s (and my own) financial situation. I need to be completely honest here and admit that it’s not the best. It’s why I’m putting up this post today, and why I’d like to have a discussion about the site’s future.

Running a site, as rewarding as it is, can be very taxing. The financial aspect alone has been extremely stressful for me. Few people have known about this – maybe just a handful.

Nintendo Everything generates revenue through ads. Unfortunately, this is not at all the best/consistent source of income. The ads themselves cannot at all be relied upon. Companies act irregularly in terms of when they’re interested in advertising. The first half of the year is often filled with dead periods for ads. Throw in the fact that some people use Adblock, and the situation becomes a bit of a mess. Truthfully, the site isn’t exactly bringing in what it needs to right now.

Those are some of the reasons why I’m concerned about Nintendo Everything’s future. We’re not in an absolutely dreadful situation, but we’re not in a good one either. It’s very tough for the middle-of-the-road sites to survive. We’re not backed by any major corporation, we’re not part of a network, and I run everything independently.

At the end of the day, I don’t want anything to change. I don’t want us to have to team up with anyone else, sell the site, shut down, or anything along the lines. I just want to be in a position to continue doing what I’ve been doing for the past eight years or so.

So where does Nintendo Everything go from here? That’s what I’d like to talk to you all about today. I would really appreciate if we could have a discussion in the comments below about what I’ve tried to explain. Maybe you guys have some ideas about how I can go about things to improve the site’s situation. My ears (eyes?) are wide open, and I’ll be looking at everything you all have to say. Let’s turn this ship around!
