How about this for a Smash Bros. glitch? Whatever is going on here causes items to become Maxim Tomatos. The items themselves function normally, but their appearance can’t be anything but a tomato.

YouTube user Leron Tolmachev says of the glitch:

This issue is currently occurring on my girlfriend’s 3DS XL. I have tried her copy of Smash Bros. in my 2DS, and it works fine, I’ve tried my copy of Smash Bros. in her 3DS and the issue only occurs on her 3DS XL with the 1.0.4 patch installed. If we uninstall the patch, the issue goes away, but reinstalling the patch causes the issue to return. I’ve factory reset the 3DS XL and formatted the SD card, but the issue persists.

Definitely one of the strangest glitches I’ve seen in a long while!

Nintendo kicked off a beta version of its new Creator’s Program on YouTube last week. If you missed out on the news, it’s essentially a program that allows YouTube users to earn a percentage of revenue from certain Nintendo-related content.

Nintendo said on its website that videos are processed in “two to three days.” However, there are reports that many YouTube users have not yet seen approval on their first round of creations. Nintendo at least seems to be aware of the problem – which was caused by a high volume of applications – and will look to process videos “as quickly as possible.”

The full statement reads:

Thank you very much for participating in the Nintendo Creators Program. Due to your enthusiasm for the program, we’re receiving a higher volume of applications to register channels & videos than expected. It is taking longer than we anticipated to confirm the applications. We appreciate your patience as we work through them as quickly as possible.

There are a few things that you can do to help expedite the process. Please check the following points before you register your channels and/or videos. Please note that we are not able to register channels and videos that are not in line with our Terms of Service.

Nintendo appears to be cooking up a couple of special Mario amiibo. “Children’s Product Certificates” for gold and silver figures have been spotted on the company’s website. That would make this official, though we haven’t heard anything out of Nintendo – so we’ll mark this a rumor for now.

Dengeki recently held another live stream recording for Bravely Second. Producer Tomoya Asano and shared more on the game’s “Barter Sub-Scenario” system. You can find that information below (thanks Siliconera).

– In the Barter Sub-Scenario, Edea takes on the lead role, where you’ll encounter Asterisk Holders from Bravely Default
– Edea talks to 2 Asterisk Holders and listens to their dispute in each scenario
– Edea then must choose one to side with
– Fight against the Asterisk Holder you don’t side with, and you’ll get their Asterisk, or job
– The one you do choose to side with, you’ll get to see more from their story
– Won’t have to fight them, but you won’t get their job
– Asano doesn’t specify whether we can get their jobs later on in the game
– This is a form of “ultimate decision making”
– The Barter Sub-Scenario will bring back many Asterisk Holders
– Edea’s Japanese voice actress Mai Aizawa says that these are the parts where she has a good amount of voiceover work
– Ex: Thief Asterisk Holder Jackal asks Edea to help him, the man that has been helping out the thirsty
– The Red Mage Asterisk Holder Fiore DeRosa then asks Edea to defeat Jackal, for the sake of the future and mankind
– While it doesn’t show why exactly the two have been arguing, they say that there’s actually quite a lot of story development behind these Barter Sub-Scenarios
– No right/wrong answer for who you should side with
– There will be something nice for those who start the game with Bravely Default save data
– Details on this coming in the near future

Disney Interactive is the latest company to have reported its latest financial results.

In the first quarter of the 2015 fiscal year, Disney Interactive’s revenue dropped 5 percent. Operating income increased significantly by 36 percent.

Disney Interactive saw a sales decrease of $19 million from last year to $384 million because of lower than expected sales of Infinity accessories and back catalog. Starter packs did help offset some of the losses, and marketing/per unit costs for Infinity 2.0 were higher.

Despite having been in a fire though, the 3DS above is still functioning! There are some parts that are broken though – the volume slider is melted closed, and the SD card slot is sealed shut. Everything else is still working believe it or not.

Below are some additional photos of the 3DS system:
