Mario Sports Superstars details – two unlockable characters, amiibo cards count and functionality
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Nintendo shared new details about Mario Sports Superstars, which was just confirmed for a March 10 launch in Europe.
To recap, soccer (football in Europe), tennis, golf, baseball and horse racing are included. Single-player tournaments will be included, along with local and online multiplayer modes.
Here’s a rundown of the different sports and features:
“With five fully-fledged sports games included, Mario Sports Superstars offers something for everyone. Football fans will compete in full-on 11-a-side matches, and will need to master both team tactics and individual skills in order to be victorious. Fans of the Mario Golf and Mario Tennis series will be familiar with the classic gameplay on offer in the golf and tennis games here, developed by Camelot Software Planning. Baseball fans will need to work on their batting and pitching techniques, as heavy-hitters such as Bowser are lining up to knock it out of the park in the first Mario-themed baseball title to be released in Europe in over 10 years. In Horse Racing, aspiring jockeys must saddle up, jump over obstacles and gallop to the finish line first to be crowned as champion. Collecting carrots along the way will replenish your stamina, while collecting stars will enable you to use the special Star Dash technique, greatly improving your chances of victory. Players can also show their caring side by visiting their favourite horses in the Stable. By petting, feeding and grooming a horse, players can build a special bond with it which will work to their advantage on the racing track.

Transferring MissingNo. to Pokemon Sun/Moon with Pokemon Bank messes with Pokemon nicknames
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
MissingNo. isn’t a real Pokemon, but that hasn’t stopped players from attempting to transfer it over to Pokemon Sun/Moon following the new update’s release. When attempting to move the glitched creature, it seems that Pokemon take the name of the one immediately next to it.
Keep in mind that Pokemon nicknames can’t be changed after they’ve been moved from one older game to another. If you mess around with MissingNo., you might be stuck with an undesired name.
If you try to Transport Pokemon in a box with Missingno., the names of the Pokemon get shifted over by one. pic.twitter.com/zpsMuMZSh8

You can now unlock a new cut-scene in Pokemon Sun/Moon through Pokemon Bank usage
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
The long-awaited update to Pokemon Bank (and Poke Transporter) arrived last night. Once it’s been updated, it’ll be fully compatible with Pokemon Sun/Moon.
Here’s something interesting about Pokemon Bank. If you bring over a Solrock to Pokemon Sun or Lunatone to Pokemon Moon, you can interact with a certain character in the Haina Desert. Fans had dug up the event previously, but this is the first time that it can be encountered under normal circumstances.
These are the steps needed to activate the scene:
Transfer Solrock to Pokemon Sun or Lunatone to Pokemon Moon.
Put Solrock/Lunatone in your party.
Fly to Ruins of Abundance on Ula’ula Island.
Head south to enter Haina Desert.
Head to the western exit, then immediately back east (where you came from).
Head to the southern exit.
Keep heading south until you see the old man with a red shirt.
Speak to him for an interesting cutscene!
Head past the break for a video of the event in question.
