Bandai Namco’s latest video for Dragon Ball: Fusions gives us a look at time trial challenges. Check it out below.

A number of new Nintendo Selects debuted in North America today. On Wii U, we have Zelda: Wind Waker HD, Nintendo Land, and LEGO City: Undercover. The 3DS line has added Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Tomodachi Life, nintendogs + cats: Golden Retriever & New Friends, and LEGO City: Undercover.

All of these titles have now dropped to $20 officially at retail, and the new prices are now reflected on the eShop as well. As a bonus, Nintendo Land can now be purchased digitally again in North America. Nintendo removed the game for unknown reasons in late 2013.

Dragon Quest series creator Yuji Horii appeared at CEDEC 2016 today, and while giving a presentation, shared an update on Dragon Quest XI.

Development on the RPG’s scenario is now full complete. Currently, Square Enix is implementing maps, scenarios, and other such elements. It’s now at the stage where you can get an impression of them, but the details are still being filled out.

Yesterday, Horii met with Square Enix’s Yosuke Saito for a five-to-six-hour business meeting. The check of an episode took three hours, and various other ideas came into discussion. The response speed of the 3DS’ 3D mode was specifically being checked, which will be applied to the 3DS version’s 2D mode and PlayStation 4 version. Battle checks were also done for the PlayStation 4 (and NX?) version.

Finally, Horii officially confirmed that Dragon Quest XI will have the “Spell of Restoration”, which was used during the series’ early days as a password save system. In the new game, it’s a very “30th anniversary-ish thing,” Horii said. Horii also said that Dragon Quest XI will be including a casino.
