Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 2 Comments
505 Games took to the official Terraria forums recently and provided an update about the game on both Wii U and 3DS.
The next Terraria console update is wrapping up, and could be ready around May. It’s expected that the 3DS patch will drop at around the same time. As for what the update entails, 505 Games noted the following:
3DS Update: will likely hit at a similar time frame as the console timing above. We have not shared what all we are including for this one – but the plan is for this to cover fixes to the most pressing issues as well as bringing the first post-launch new content to the 3DS version of Terraria! We will share more details at a later date.
There’s also some news about Terraria for Wii U. It sounds like this version of the game could come out at the end of May digitally (followed by the retail version).
505 said the following regarding Terraria on Nintendo’s console:
Wii U Terraria: This has taken longer than anticipated, however, we are on the brink of submission to Nintendo and this is expected to be available digitally at the end of May.

Update: Nothing – First Pokemon Sun/Moon footage to air on a Japanese show next week
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 31 Comments
Update (4/2): Bumped to the top. Nothing new was shown, sadly. Masuda was in attendance, but they only went over the trailer that was shown during the Pokemon Direct in February. This was technically the first TV airing of the video, but it’s disappointing nonetheless!
Original (3/26): It was already made clear that we’d be getting a proper look at Pokemon Sun/Moon in the near future thanks to CoroCoro’s upcoming issue. However, we now have confirmation that gameplay will be shared very soon.
Next week’s episode of the Japanese variety show Pokenchi (Gathering at the Pokemon House) is confirmed to show the first TV aired footage of the new games. Game Freak director Junichi Masuda should also be in attendance to talk about Sun/Moon.
Pokenchi’s upcoming episode airs on April 3 in Japan.

Nintendo UK on the #3DSAdventures campaign
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Nintendo UK has kicked off a new marketing campaign that focuses on adventure games for 3DS. Hyrule Warriors Legends, Bravely Second, and Fire Emblem Fates are just some of the titles that are featured.
Chandra Nair, marketing manager of Nintendo UK, spoke with MCV this week about the initiviate. He says it’ll be a “stellar year for RPG adventure fans” on the 3DS. And as far as the system in general, Nair believes “RPG adventure fans will look back on Nintendo 3DS as having one of the best line-ups of all time.”
Nair’s words in full:
“It might be late in the Nintendo 3DS’ life cycle, but 2016 looks like it’ll be another stellar year for RPG adventure fans with an unparalleled and exclusive line-up spanning from January through to December. I think in years to come RPG adventure fans will look back on Nintendo 3DS as having one of the best line-ups of all time. And we’re celebrating it right now.”
