Level-5 Vision 2016 is about to begin. In about 10 minutes, Level-5 will be making all sorts of announcements, though it’s unclear how much will pertain to Nintendo platforms. We should hear more about Snack World at the very least, which was previously confirmed for 3DS.

You can watch Level-5 Vision 2016 as it happens below. If there are any Nintendo-related announcements, we’ll have them right here. It’ll be a 90-minute stream, followed by a fan event.

A guidebook will also be made available. The book will include a special code unlocking Super Saiyan Blue (or Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan) Vegeta as a partner character. The game also allows players to fuse faces with friends and save them to the 3DS.

Hit the break for today’s full scan.

This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

Etrian Odyssey V (3DS) – 8/9/9/9

Yo-kai Watch 2 is only available in Japan at the moment. This will change once both versions head to North America on September 30, but what about the rest of the world?

While there hasn’t been an announcement yet, it seemed like a certain bet that Nintendo would eventually bring Yo-kai Watch 2 to Europe and Australia. And thanks to a classification from the latter continent, it’s now all but confirmed. Ratings for Yo-kai Watch 2 have appeared in Australia. Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls were both added to the database today. Guess Nintendo will have something to say soon!

Thanks to Jose for the tip.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance originally came to 3DS in 2012. Even though it’s been four years since then, fans have stumbled upon a potentially interesting discovery.

OmegaErkz streamed a variety of areas from Kingdom Hearts 3D on YouTube yesterday – see below. At the 2:53:20 minute mark, there’s an unused location made up of 11 rooms (maps, areas) that seems to be based on Treasure Planet.

Although some may assume that it could be a demo version of the Captain Hook ship from past Kingdom Hearts titles, this looks quite different. It also doesn’t quite match up entirely with the ship from the movie. If that wasn’t enough, code from this group of assets has the title “tp”. Maps from other Kingdom Hearts releases has area codes such as “tt” for Twilight Town or “pl” for Pride Lands. Also remember that Square Enix has left over unused content in the past.

Here’s the full stream recording from OmegaErkz:
