Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam has been out in Europe since earlier this month, and in just a few weeks, it’ll be launching in the states as well. That means Nintendo of America is starting to get its promotional efforts going, in part with a teaser website located here. I’m sure it’ll be filled with all sorts of content very soon!

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

This week’s Japanese sales numbers include two big milestones for Nintendo. One is all about hardware, and another applies to one specific game.

First, 3DS has sold over 20 million units in Japan. It’s also important to mention that Splatoon has now sold over 1 million copies in the territory. The game likely already reached that number with digital copies included, though Famitsu’s data officially confirms the figure with physical units. It’s a nice way for Nintendo to close out the year!

The Hyrule Gold Edition New 3DS XL will finally be launching in Japan next month. When it hits store shelves, the system will come with a little bonus.

Nintendo has revealed that a download code will be included for a classic Link costume usable with a fairy in Hyrule Warriors Legends. Note, however, that the game itself is not included.

We’ll probably be seeing this costume/DLC when Hyrule Warriors Legends heads west in March. It’s also unlikely that it will be exclusive to the bundle in Japan.
