An update is now available for Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker. It’s version 1.1, but you may have some trouble downloading it. Dennis reviewed the game for us, yet he couldn’t find any sign of the patch last night. Hopefully you’ll come across it when booting up the game with Wi-Fi enabled!

Thanks to Axl_abe for the tip.

Update (5/6): It’s unfortunately looking like numbers going around for Target’s amiibo stock are inaccurate. There’s a much more in-depth explanation on Reddit, but anything you heard yesterday was incorrect. We may see half of what was originally reported (ex: a store getting 16 units instead of 32), but even that isn’t confirmed.

In brighter news, it sounds like Amazon wants to get things right with upcoming pre-orders. Figures will be limited to one per customer, and reservations will be going live “during normal business hours (pacific time)”.

Did you miss out on Target’s incredibly brief online pre-order periods for the Jigglypuff amiibo? Well, we may have some good news for you!

It’s not officially confirmed, but one Reddit user has started informing users on the site about in-store inventory for Jigglypuff. This person’s own store is on track to have 24 units (along with 4 for Robin, 4 for Lucina, 12 silver Marios, 12 for Pac-Man, 8 for Charizard, 8 for Wario, and 4 of each Splatoon figure). Most locations seem to be getting anywhere from 12 to 32 units.

Numbers will vary by store, but Jigglypuff is definitely looking like it will be one of the more well-stocked amiibo at Target. That’s surely a good thing given how this figure will only be sold at Target in the United States.

Yooka-Laylee’s Kickstarter success is no secret. The campaign reached its $270,000 target in under an hour, and has gone on to raise over $2.1 million.

The strong support demonstrated for Yooka-Laylee is leading to a couple of records. First, the title reached $1 million in funding faster than any other game on Kickstarter. It’s also on track to be the most-successful game campaign in the UK.

Developer Playtonic confirmed on Twitter a few minutes ago:

The Yooka-Laylee Kickstarter is located here. Amazingly enough, there are 41 days left before it ends!
