Details stemming from yesterday’s Xenoblade Chronicles X website update have now been translated. You can find them rounded up below.

– Take the “Doll License Certification Exam” once you reach a certain point in the story
– After you pass, you can obtain “Dolls”
– After the “Flight Pack” is developed, you can fly Dolls through the sky
– Dolls can accomplish an enormous variety of things
– Light, Medium, and Heavy Doll types
– Light: Low HP, high Accuracy and Evasion; excellent mobility in battle; low fuel capacity, but gets good mileage while flying; the price makes it a good choice for beginner pilots.
– Medium: Balanced in all areas, and easy to handle; excellent armor on all parts, making it difficult for them to be destroyed; mid-range priced Dolls recommended for pilots with battle experience.
– Heavy: Very high HP and Defense; able to make frequent use of high-powered weaponry due to its high fuel capacity; their heavy frames make them slow in battle, and they get poor mileage while flying; price, but appreciated by veterans and romantic pilots.
– Dolls perform auto attacks in battle with the Hand Weapons equipped to either hand
– Dolls use weapons equipped to other parts to use arts
– Hand Weapons(L/R)…Rods, Swords, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, etc
– Dolls can equip up to 8 weapons to use arts
– Back Weapons(L/R)…Railguns, Missiles, Grenade Launchers, etc. Use high-powered arts
– Shoulder Weapons(L/R)…Missiles, Chainguns, Laser Weapons, etc. Can use arts more powerful than Back Weapons.
– Arm Weapons(L/R)…Shields, Vulcans, etc. Tend to come with arts with extra effects.
– Spare Weapons(L/R)…Beam Sabers, Hand Grenades, etc. Have distinctly short Recast times.
– Just like fighting on-foot, you can expend 3000 TP to activate the “OC Gear”
– Can’t use fuel while in OC Gear
– When using arts, there’s a fixed chance you’ll enter “Cockpit Mode”
– All arts are instantly Recast after Cockpit Mode activates, allowing you to reuse them immediately
– Can “Catch” enemies who are suffering from “Break”
– This prevents them from moving for a fixed period of time
– All attacks against enemies in Catch are guaranteed to hit, and the damage inflicted against them is increased
– Dolls use up fuel while flying around, and when using arts in battle
– Fuel recovers slowly when you disembark from the Doll, but you can also refuel them at NLA
– Use the console at the BLADE Home to change your Doll’s equipment, name, coloring, etc.

Head past the break for details about the different Doll series.

Yesterday, various reports surfaced about issues with Super Smash Bros. for Wii U after players downloaded the game’s new Mewtwo DLC. Nintendo is already on the case though, and a patch is in the works to address all problems.

Issues come about when experiencing the single-player modes, and it’s apparently not just limited to 10-Man Smash in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. You may encounter a bug after trying out Classic, All-Star, Stadium, Trophy Rush, or Smash Run (for 3DS). If you play these modes after downloading the Mewtwo DLC and attempt to connect online, you may be unable to do so.

For the time being, Nintendo advises Mewtwo owners to avoid the aforementioned modes until the new patch has been released. Note that regular Smash, Smash Tour (for Wii U) and online play are unaffected by the latest bug.

Well, that didn’t take long. A glitch has already been found concerning Mewtwo that can be done on the 3DS version of Super Smash Bros., giving Mewtwo a custom moveset, YouTube user Mankalor shows.

For those of you that have already received Mewtwo, I’m sure you may have heard or noticed by now that he doesn’t have any official custom moves, so what’s done to achieve a custom moveset is Mewtwo seemingly inherits moves from a Mii fighter that’s transferred from the Wii U version of the game. Check out the crazy video below and watch what happens when you give Mewtwo moves he’s not meant to have!
