Miis have seen a long history of games and appearances ranging from party titles like Wii Play and Wii Sports to spinoff Mario titles such as Mario Kart and Mario Tennis. Now from a fancy island resort in 2013’s quirky Tomodachi Life to the fantasy wonderlands of an RPG, Miitopia sees Nintendo’s Mii avatars come front and center once again on the 3DS. Miitopia builds ground and gives Miis a more robust experience compared to the simulator nature of Tomodachi Life, but it falls short in many areas to really make this a game worth owning, even if it is just as fun and absurd as one would expect from a Mii driven title – for better or for worse.

Level-5 issued yet another commercial to promote The Snack World’s upcoming release in Japan. Get a look at the latest advert below.

The latest Pokemon Global Mission in Pokemon Sun/Moon tasked players with collectively playing 1,000 lotteries. That goal has already been reached, and rewards will be provided to participants.

All who contributed will receive 2,000 Festival Coins. Additionally, Pokemon Global Link members will earn 4,000. Global Link members who participate in the lottery will be provided with five Rare Candies and a Fast Ball.
