The “Treasure Box” edition of Fire Emblem Warriors in Japan comes with an 80-page art book which contains, among other things, concept art of the characters. The Fire Emblem Warriors Twitter account shared two such pieces today – Marth and Anna. Incidentally, this our first proper look at Anna in Fire Emblem Warriors. So far, we know she’s in the game as a sort of navigator and guide – but it’d be a shame if she wasn’t playable with a great outfit like this.

A new weapon is being added to Splatoon 2 tonight in North America, and tomorrow in Europe. The Splat Brella is the first of its kind of weapon to be available in the game. Previously, unlike with other weapon, you did not receive the Hero Brella Replica for beating all singleplayer stages with it. It’s likely that this will now work once the Splat Brella has been added. The Splat Brella comes with the Sprinkler sub-weapon and the Ink Storm special.

Nippon Ichi has reported its latest financial results. In the company’s report, it’s confirmed that Disgaea 5 Complete has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide.

This number was to be expected given what we previously knew about the game’s performance. While it started slowly in Japan, Disgaea 5 Complete had been off to a strong start in the west. NIS America president Takuro Yamashita said a few months ago that pre-orders were at 110,000 copies in the west. 78,000 units had been reserved in the US, along with 36,000 copies in Europe.

A few days ago, Capcom announced that Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is on the way to 3DS. Like the last few Ace Attorney games, it’s digital only in North America. Capcom is going all out in Japan, however.

Amazon provides a look at the Japanese boxart for Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney on 3DS. Unsurprisingly, it’s pretty identital to the DS original.

Aside from the standard game, Capcom is preparing the Ace Attorney 1 – 6 Premium Edition pack. Priced at 150,000 yen ($1,365), it contains all six main Ace Attorney games, an Ace Attorney 4 mini soundtrack CD, an original box, a set of 15 postcards, a box for those postcards signed by art director Takuro Fuse, a sheet signed by Ace Attorney designer Shu Takumi and a 7 gram pure gold memorial plate. The bundle is exclusive to E-Capcom.

Thanks to Fan for the tip.
