Pokémon Shuffle has been delivering new events every week since its launch, allowing players to catch the likes of Mew, Kyogre, and Rotom. This week is no different.

If you go to Check In on Pokémon Shuffle, you’ll be given the chance to face Mega Lucario. This one’s a little bit different, as once you defeat Mega Lucario, you’ll be awarded with the Lucarionite and a Jewel. There is one catch, however: Only the top 20,000 players in the west and 50,000 in Japan will be able to receive the Lucarionite for their Lucario (Lucario can be obtained through the special EX stages). As of this writing, we don’t know if the Lucarionite will be given by any other means, so Check In as soon as you can!

The Mega Lucario event will run for one week only.

Inti Creates’ eShop hit Azure Striker Gunvolt has just reached 100,000, the official Twitter for the game just tweeted.

This is certainly a much deserved milestone for this fantastic platformer. Have you played Azure Striker Gunvolt yet? A demo was just released a few weeks ago and is now available for download in the 3DS eShop. A sequel for the game is currently in the works.

When Sega announced their line of remastered “Classics” for the 3DS, the one I was really holding out for was Out Run. Being born in an era where arcades barely mattered, I’d only had a single chance to play the original arcade cabinet so my familiarity with the game mostly came from the fact that it has already been ported to just about every console in existence. While most of these ports captured the game’s relaxed feel and addictive gameplay, they did vary wildly in quality so I was curious to see how well this 3DS version stacked up. Is it faithful to Yu Suzuki’s original classic?

Well yeah, of course. The emulation experts at M2 always go to crazy lengths to get the small details accurate as possible while throwing in heaps of extra content and hidden bonuses. What really surprised me was how well Out Run holds up in the year 2015.

joindot’s Pazuru is heading to the European 3DS eShop on March 26, according to a listing found on the store. Pricing for the game is set at €5.99.

Pazuru originally came out in Japan last year. You can watch a trailer below.
