Update: Play-Asia is taking pre-orders here.
We’ve seen real-life renditions of Splatoon weapons before, but there’s one that is being made into a new product. HVM has added in a listing for a Splattershot squirt gun, which will be sold in Japan starting on July 18 for 2,700 yen. It looks a bit similar to Target’s purchase bonus from last year!

Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS version 1.1.5 now live
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 27 Comments
Update: Official patch notes:
– Game balance adjusted
– Adjustments have also been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience
* Replays stored up with the previous version (version 1.1.4) are not compatible
* Version 1.1.5 is required to play online
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS has been undergoing a bit of maintenance tonight. Alongside that, a new patch has been made available: version 1.1.5.
As the small increase in version number indicates, this is not a major update. When the official patch notes are published in English, it should include the following: “Adjustments have also been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.”
Today’s 3DS update requires 2,634 blocks (329MB) of free space on an SD card. The Wii U version takes up 160MB if you downloaded version 1.1.4, and 3.1GB if you haven’t grabbed the previous updates.
