New Mii Fighter costumes were added to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS as part of today’s new DLC. Check out the official trailer for the outfits below.

A brand new update is now up for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS following its maintenance, and with it comes a new batch of DLC.

We’ve known for a while now that the brand new Super Mario Maker stage would be making its way to Super Smash Bros. as downloadable content, but also included in today’s update is a stage making its return from Super Smash Bros. Brawl – the Pirate Ship stage.

Along with the brand new Pirate Ship stage – which is available as DLC exclusively on Wii U – the Duck Hunt stage from the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. is now making its way over to the 3DS version.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper update without more Mii Fighter costumes. Included in the brand new update and DLC are seven brand new Mii Fighter costumes, which are:

  • Business Suit
  • Fox Set (StarFox) (Gunner)
  • Captain Falcon’s Outfit (Brawler)
  • Toad (Brawler)
  • Viridi Set – Kid Icarus (Sword Fighter)
  • Hunter Set – Monster Hunter (Sword Fighter)

As usual with the Mii Fighter costumes, you can buy them individually or as a bundle for a discounted price.

Here’s the breakdown:

Super Mario Maker stage

3DS – $2.49
Wii U – $2.49
3DS/Wii U – $3.49

Pirate Ship stage

Wii U – $1.99

Mii Fighters

3DS – $0.75
Wii U – $0.75
3DS/Wii U – $1.15

Be sure to download the new update if it isn’t done automatically when you boot up the game to gain access to all of today’s new content.

A couple of Japanese Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash commercials have hit Nintendo’s YouTube page. Both are below.

In the Japanese version of Yo-Kai Watch, a number of the Yokai names feature puns. That’s made things slightly difficult to localize. However, Level-5 (handling the localization instead of Nintendo) has still managed to come up with a ton of puns for the English release for the different characters. Take a look at Polygon’s video below for a few examples.

Extensive gameplay from the English version of Yo-kai Watch is now available. Take a look at the video below for off-screen footage with audio.
