Pokemon Shuffle update: Mega Swampert competition & Tornadus
Posted on 9 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Pokemon Shuffle was updated with some new content today.
First of all, a new Mega Stone competition has started. This one pits you against Mega Swampert and you will need to place high enough to obtain the Swampertite. To get it, you will need to place in the top 12,000 in Europe, 18,000 in North America or 50,000 in Japan. You will get a Mega Speedup on top of that if you place in the top 2,300 in Europe, 3,600 in North America or 10,000 in Japan. Placing in the top 16,000 in Europe, 24,000 in North America or 70,000 in Japan means you miss the Swampertite, but instead you’ll get an Attack Power Up and Disruption Delay. If you place outside those ranks, you get a Jewel instead. The competition runs until January 12th.
Also, Tornadus is available once more, so now’s your chance to catch it again if you missed it the first time. This stage will also be available until January 12th.

Kimishima comments briefly on Splatoon, sales, NX, and more
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Switch, Wii U | 70 Comments
Sankei West recently spoke with Tatsumi Kimishima. During their talk, Nintendo’s new president talked a bit about Splatoon, sales, mobile, My Nintendo, and NX.
The first topic discussed during the interview was Splatoon. After Sankei mentions that it’s selling well, Kimishima said that painting colors as a way of battle and the characters allow it to be accepted by a family audience. He added that, in the future, it’s possible to extend it widely like Super Mario Bros.

PictoParty not releasing in Europe on Thursday after all, should be later this month
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
PictoParty was expected out in Europe this week. In fact, Nintendo listed the game in its weekly download PR published earlier today. But developer Retroid Interactive has since said that PictoParty won’t be hitting the European Wii U eShop due to a bug found within the game.
We are truly sad to announce that #PictoParty won't be released on Thursday. This is due to a bug we found in the game. #PleaseUnderstand
— Retroid Interactive (@retroidofficial) January 4, 2016
Hope we didn't disappoint you, we strive to deliver the best quality possible, this version wasn't. The game will be released late January.

When PictoParty does launch on the European Wii U eShop later this month, it should be accompanied by a patch.
