Update: Patch notes added after the break.


The newest update for Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS is out now. Both games have the latest version available – 1.1.0.

On Wii U, the update download comes in at 286 MB. The 3DS update takes up 2,096 blocks of space.

Today’s update brings about a bunch of content. For instance, there’s now Tournament Mode and YouTube replay uploads on Wii U, plus new stages and Mii Fighter costumes for both versions.

Intropy Games is releasing Astral Breakers on the North American Wii U eShop next week, the studio confirmed today.

Astral Breakers is a cooperative/competitive action-puzzle game. The goal is to break colorful spheres, which in turn drops useless spheres into your opponent’s territory.

Astral Breakers allows for competitive play in Versus mode. In SuperNova survival mode, two players can team up against the CPU.

It’s possible to draw your own characters in the game. As it’s based on a Zodiac theme, you can use the GamePad to plot your own constellations. Constellations take on different properties when you bring them into battle. Their name, how they are drawn, their drop pattern and drop intensity (amount of garbage dropped on an opponent) will cause variations. Constellations are typically more lethal if they’re a complex drawing. Astral Breakers will also come with 12 existing Zodiac constellations.

Look for Astral Breakers on the Wii U eShop next Thursday.
