Last November, Nintendo released black and white Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundles in Japan. The company has now confirmed that both editions will soon be discontinued. There’s no set date for this, but it’s expected that production will be ending in the near future. It makes sense given that Super Mario Maker bundles will be taking their place next month!

Kotaku UK recently asked Mighty No. 9 creator Keiji Inafune if he’s the game’s best player currently. To this, he noted:

“It’s not an option to make a game that I can play! It’s best to make a game that I really have to make an effort to play. My staff, though, are really good.”

Mighty No. 9 has no training mode or anything of the sort, and as Inafune puts it: “Everybody, even beginners, has to deal with what’s thrown at them!” What the developers have instead done is incorporated a learning curve.

As Inafune explained:

“There are systems built in that train players, in a way, to be quicker and more skilful by the end. This is what we do with dashing. We want players to take risks in the game, yes, but we do balance that.”

Inafune also elaborated on Mighty No. 9’s dash system, which allows players to build up combos if they’re quick, effective and manage to not die.

“It’s a system that really challenges players. And we want even expert players who are really good at the game to be challenged. When they think they can master it, there are mechanisms that make them realise they have to think twice.”

A preview of FAST Racing Neo from Nintendo World Report provides additional details about Shin’en’s upcoming racer. Read on below for a summary of the latest information.

– Sunhara Plains is among the game’s courses
– This level has flame torches everywhere and being hit by one of these is brutal
– Daitoshi Station is another track, set in space
– There is an open area where you have to fly between various asteroids and there is a very little room for error
– At another point in that same course, asteroids are also trying to crush you and that stuns players
– Storm Coast and Kamagori City are other new tracks
– Storm Coast makes hefty use of the switching mechanics and took place in the pouring rain
– Kamagori City is very short
– Every lap here is over in roughly 35 seconds
– Kamagori City has an old Nanostray boss in the background
– Other references can be found in the final version
– The stages shown so far aren’t how the final cups will be
– The design is nearly done, but there will be a lot of internal testing before submitting the game for release
– The full game will also feature a variety of modes including the Championships, Multi Player, Online Play and a harsher Hero Mode
– No smaller challenge levels like the previous game, but there will be other options will keep players engaged

In addition to showing off a mysterious new Pokemon, the latest issue of CoroCoro also has some new info regarding Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon. In this game, you can break through dungeon walls with Mega Evolution, allowing you to create new paths.

Another new feature are items called Lapis. They are items that give you temporary boosts while you’re in a dungeon, but disappear when you leave the dungeon.

Higher quality scans will likely pop up sometime this week. We will keep you posted.
