Nintendo has just announced that Yo-Kai Watch will be released in Europe on April 29th. With this, the game will finally be available in all regions.

If you’re in Europe and just can’t wait two more months, you can actually just import the game from Australia. Yo-Kai Watch was released there last year and Europe and Australia are part of the same region as far as games are concerned, so the 3DS’ region lock won’t affect it.

It’s been over half a decade since Mega Man received a new release, but the iconic character still lives on by making the rounds with appearances in places such as Super Smash Bros. Finally though, a new product is here. Mega Man Legacy Collection brings together the first six titles of The Blue Bomber’s adventure into one spot, with added challenges, a museum to look at concept art from each game, and a music player to listen to some of the series’ most memorable tracks. This package serves as a way to honor Mega Man’s legacy and impact since his arrival into video games, and is one hardcore fans of the series will certainly enjoy.

Mega Man Legacy Collection’s launch is nearly here. We’re posting one more gameplay video below that contains 10 minutes of footage.

Nintendo has come out with the latest 3DS firmware update. Version 10.6.0-31 is now available in all territories.

As for what’s behind the update, you all can probably guess the purpose. The lone note from Nintendo: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”.

A new commercial has arrived for the Japanese 3DS game Haikyuu!!: Cross Team Match. You can view it below.

Our latest look at Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games provides some footage of the title’s Extra Golf mode. Take a look at it below.

Update: This is also listed by Synnex (Nintendo distributor for North America).


Disney Art Academy could be in the works, based on a newly-discovered retailer listing. MacMall has reason to believe that the title is coming to 3DS.

Most of Nintendo’s Art Academy releases have been pretty traditional. But following Pokemon Art Academy, this would be the series’ second spin-off – assuming there’s truth to MacMall’s listing. We’ll let you know if we hear anything official.
