Capcom sent out several screenshots from the just-announced Mega Man Legacy Collection. The full set can be seen below.

Capcom has announced Mega Man Legacy Collection, a new digital package that celebrates the Blue Bomber’s 8-bit history.

Mega Man Legacy Collection features the original six Mega Man games. It’ll also offer two new modes: Challenge Mode and Museum Mode.

According to Capcom, “Challenge Mode remixes gameplay segments from all six games, with plenty of scaling difficulty objectives for experienced players to conquer yet serving as a good starting point for new players, too.” In Museum Mode, players can view “a comprehensive collection of history, high-res art and original concept pieces”.

Mega Man Legacy Collection is out on 3DS this winter. Check out the debut trailer below. Lots of additional information is posted after the break.

Starting today until June 22nd, Giratina will be available for capture on Pokémon Shuffle. This event slightly differs from other challenges in the past, as this is the first ever Escalation Battle. What makes an Escalation Battle different from the other challenges – which have typically been timed events – is that as you beat the stage more and more, the difficulty raises, but with the difficulty rising, your chances of catching Giratina become greater and the rewards much better.

Once you reach Level 5 of the Giratina stage, you will be awarded with 1,000 coins. At Level 10, you’ll be awarded with a Disruption Delay. Level 30 provides a Mega Start, and at Level 50 a Mega Speedup.

To celebrate the launch of this new Escalation Battle, players from around the world will receive a Mega Speedup for free. All you have to do is boot up your game and hit Check In to download the new patch and obtain it!

Wee Man Studios has shared the first official screenshots as well as new details about Lifespeed with Nintendo Everything.

For those who haven’t heard of Lifespeed previously, it’s a futuristic flying racing game for 3DS. It’ll come with 11 playable characters, online leaderboards, and a story mode.

Speaking of the story mode, we have new information on that front. We’re told that cut-scenes happen after almost every race, and there’s even a bit of story that plays our during races themselves. The latter is on the subtle-side, so you’ll have to be careful not to miss it. There are also two alternative endings to the comic book storyline. What you’re able to see will depend on your actions on the race track.

Characters in Lifespeed come from different planets, have their own backstory, and personal rivalries. Personalities are reflected in their statistics, style of racing, and their communications during races. Wee Man Studios hopes that, in the future, they can weave in characters not featured in the story currently as well as introduce brand new characters.

Finally, we have some information about Lifespeed’s weapons. Players fly through rings in order to obtain power-ups and weapon pickups. By flying through a multiplier ring, you’ll receive a big speed increase for a short period of time. You also fly through a weapons ring to obtain a weapon, which include lasers, missiles, mines.

Players can only hold one weapon at a time in Lifespeed. Weapons need to be targeted at the enemy and will only work effectively if you get a strong lock on. Wee Man Studios says that using the weapons locking system effectively is something you’ll need to develop in order to be good at battling in Lifespeed.

Oh, and one more tidbit: it’s possible to perform a starfox-esq barrel roll using the shoulder buttons.

Lifespeed launches on the 3DS eShop this summer. View some screenshots below.

A few years ago, it seemed like The Binding of Isaac would never grace a Nintendo system. That’s because Nintendo seemed to find some of the game’s content questionable – specifically the religious aspects.

You may be interested to hear that The Binding of Isaac’s initial rejection didn’t come from Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. Speaking with Nintendo Force, creator Edmund McMillen revealed that Reggie “backed” the game in 2012, though former Nintendo indie head Dan Adelman truly pushed for it to happen.

The Binding of Isaac is finally coming to Nintendo platforms this summer. It’ll be on both Wii U and New 3DS via the eShop.
