Big John Games released a new trailer for Cube Creator 3D. Watch it below.

Cube Creator 3D launches on the North American 3DS eShop next Thursday.

We’re still waiting on the March 2015 NPD chart, but Nintendo has already delivered its response for the month.

Several statistics were highlighted in the new press release. According to the company, sales for Nintendo hardware systems thus far in 2015 “have increased by nearly 60 percent over sales during the same time frame in 2014.”

Other than that, we know that Mario Party 10 sold close to 290,000 copies in its first two weeks on the U.S. market, cumulative Smash Bros. Wii U and Mario Kart 8 sales are at 1.6 million and 1.9 million units respectively, and more.

Head past the break for today’s full announcement and sales data.

Update (4/16): We now have complete confirmation of the release date:



Cube Creator 3D is coming to the North American 3DS eShop later this month. On Twitter, developer Big John Games confirmed a release date of April 23.

The studio’s tweet is as follows:


Cube Creator 3D should head to Europe at some point in the future. There’s no set date at the moment, however.

Pre-loading functionality has been out on Wii U for quite awhile now, but we’ve yet to see the feature be fully utilized on 3DS. In Japan, Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. is the first 3DS game to take advantage of pre-loading. But what about the west?

Nintendo’s website indicates that Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons Super Mario Bros. Edition will in fact allow for pre-loading. Consumers can purchase a code, and we assume it can then be used to grab most of the game’s data before launch.

3DS owners in Europe can head to a local Nintendo Zone to obtain a new theme in honor of International StreetPass Week. Sadly, I don’t believe it’s being offered in North America!

Update (4/16): Pre-orders open on Best Buy and GameStop.


Amazon opened Mario Maker pre-orders for a very brief period during E3 week last year. After just a couple of days, the retailer’s listing was pulled.

Amazon’s Mario Maker listing is finally back up and running – likely because Nintendo announced a September launch month last week. If you’d like to reserve it, you can do so here.

Donkey Kong 64 has launched on the North American Wii U eShop today. We’ll throw one last reminder your way with 20 more minutes of footage!
