This music can be heard in both North America and Europe!


XSEED has acquired the domain name “LordOfMagna.com”. It was registered on December 11.

Lord of Magna could very well be the localized name of Marvelous’ 3DS title Forbidden Magna. Given that XSEED is a subsidiary of Marvelous, I’d say it’s very likely that the game will be brought over to North America sometime this year.

We found out in late November that a pair of Tetris games were scheduled to be removed from the European 3DS eShop at the end of 2014. As soon as January 1 rolled on in, Nintendo pulled the Game Boy version of Tetris as well as Tetris Axis from the digital store.

It’s now clear that the removal of these two titles wasn’t just limited to Europe. Tetris for Game Boy as well as Tetris Axis are nowhere to be seen on the North American 3DS eShop. There was no prior warning for those living in the states, sadly!

Ackk Studios released a bit of new footage from Y2K showing new location East Mainstreet. The studio shared some screenshots as well – view them below.
