3DS

Interested in taking another look at Super Mario Maker or Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer? Nintendo UK has you covered!

On its official Twitter account, Nintendo UK announced that both titles will be featured as part of a live stream taking place tomorrow. It’s unclear when this will be happening, but you’ll want to keep an eye on the Twitch page here.


Minecraft has graces most gaming systems, but it has yet to arrive on Nintendo platforms. That doesn’t mean developer Mojang is against the idea though.

“If I had my way, we’d be on everything,” COO Vu Bui told MCV. “We want to continue to be available to all players, and that means being on new platforms because everyone uses something different.”

MCV specifically asked if a Nintendo version of Minecraft could be possible. Regarding this, Bui said: “I’ve never heard a reason why we haven’t ended up on Wii U or 3DS. It just hasn’t happened yet.”

So how about it: is Minecraft something you guys would like to see on Wii U and 3DS?

Seems like Nintendo is fairly confident that the Animal Crossing spin-off Happy Home Designer will do well in Japan. The company announced today that the first shipment of the game will consist of 500,000 units. This includes both the regular version of the game as well as the one that will be bundled with the NFC reader. Both versions will come with one amiibo card.

Recently, both Splatoon and Fire Emblem Fates were basically sold out in Japan in their first couple of weeks on the market. It’ll be interesting to see how well Happy Home Designer does and if Nintendo calculated the demand appropriately this time.
