Update 4: Bumped to the top. Added in trophies, possible Mii Fighter hat images, and music.


Update 3: Added in possible Mii Fighter hat/outfit.


Update 2: Added in a stage note. That might be it folks! And I personally see that as a good thing.


Update: Thus far, it’s looking like there are no new characters in the update. Cloud and the Midgar stage seem to be added with the patch. Possibly another stage as well.


Data miners are up to their usual tricks when it comes to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS. It appears that content from the latest patch has started to leak, which isn’t too surprising given that the new presentation is taking place tomorrow. We won’t be spoiling anything on the front page or our social media accounts, but you can keep track of updates as they happen after the break.

Yo-kai Sangokushi is the latest Yo-kai Watch game, and it’s another spin-off / crossover title. Announced earlier this year, Level-5 revealed today that the crossover between Yo-kai Watch and Romance of the Three Kingdoms will be released for Nintendo 3DS in Japan in 2016.

All copies of the game will come with “Komasan Sun Ce” Military Commander Legendary Medal, while first-print copies will also include a “Komasan Sun Ce” figure strap.

Several new special stages have come to Pokemon Shuffle. First of all, a special Mewtwo commemorative stage has been added to the game. Previously, Mewtwo was only available in an Expert stage that required you to beat 150 regular stages with an S rank. In this special stage, which will be available until January 19th, items cost nothing, so Mewtwo shouldn’t be too hard to catch.

Next, Regigigas will be available until December 28th. You will have an easier time catching this Pokemon if you have Regirock, Registeel and Regice in your team.

Speaking of which, all three of those are making a return to the game. Regirock will be available until December 18th. It will be followed by Registeel and then Regice.

Finally, the Mega Garchomp competition makes a return. If you haven’t gotten a Garchompite the first time around, now’s your chance. The top 12,000 players in Europe, 18,000 in North America and 50,000 in Japan will receive a Garchompite. If you make it to the top 1,200 in Europe, 1,800 in North America or 5,000 in Japan, you will also receive a Mega Speedup. The top 20,000 in Europe, 30,000 in North America and 50,000 in Japan will receive an Attack Power Up. Everyone else who participates will receive a Disruption Delay. If you already have a Garchompite and place in the top spots, you will receive a Jewel instead.

Following CoroCoro’s coverage, the Mythical Pokemon Volcanion has been officially revealed. The creature was shown in a new trailer today, which you can watch below.

Here’s an official overview of Volcanion:

“Unlike any Pokémon discovered before it, this Pokémon is both Fire and Water type. It uses fire and water to create steam within its body, expelling explosive shock waves and boiling steam from the arms on its back. The power is said to be great enough to blow away an entire mountain, gouging out the earth and changing the shape of the land.”

Volcanion can’t be encountered through regular gameplay. We’ll be hearing more about the Pokemon soon.

Assassination Classroom: Assassin Training Plan is in development for 3DS, Bandai Namco announced today.

Players become students of Class 3-E in the game. They’ll be spending time in school from entrance to graduation while attending school events, trying to kill Koro-sensei, and taking tests. It’ll be possible to train with Nagisa Shiota, take on missions with Karma Akabane, and enjoy communication among classmates.

Assassination Classroom: Assassin Training Plan is due out in Japan on March 24 for 5,700 yen. First-print copies will come with four 3DS themes and an in-game item.

You can view the first screenshots from Assassination Classroom: Assassin Training Plan below. Access the official site here.

Let’s Talk #33: What do you want to see from next week’s Smash Bros. presentation?

On Tuesday, Nintendo will be holding another Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS presentation. We know that this will be the final broadcast for these Smash Bros. titles, and we’ll be hearing more about Cloud. Nintendo has teased other information for the event, and we’ll almost certainly hear about the Smash Ballot. It should be pretty big given that this is the final Smash Bros. presentation!

So what are your last minute hopes for the stream? Is there any character you’re particularly pulling for? Is there a new stage you’d like to be added? Sound off in the comments below!
