As is practically tradition at this point, dataminers have gone to work on Pokemon GO’s latest update. There aren’t any massive findings – especially since new features like trading were just announced yesterday – but there are some interesting tidbits.

Here’s the full rundown:

The second Gyroidite Scavenger Hunt event is now live in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. It’ll run until June 30th. Your goal is to find as many wedding-themed Gyroidite as you can. Appropriately, you can then use them to craft wedding-themed items. There are also new Timed Goals available for the duration of the event.

Fire Emblem Heroes is teasing its next Summoning Focus with the silhouettes you see above. Appropriately for the season, the new Heroes will be Summer-themed. The Summoning Focus will be available from June 21st until July 24th.

Also, the Oliver Grand Hero Battle is back. It’ll run from today until June 28th. There are also new quests available for it.

Nintendo has said time and time again that the 3DS isn’t going anywhere. In an interview with IGN, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime reiterated this once again.

Reggie stated that there are still “new games” planned for 3DS. Nintendo will be announcing these titles “over the next few months”.

Niantic has revealed brand new functionality coming to Pokemon GO. New features involving friends, gifting, and trading are all on the way.

Here’s the full rundown from Niantic:

Fire Emblem Heroes has started its latest event. Tempest Trials+: Feudal of the Fangs is now live.

The 5-star hero Canas: Wisdom Seeker and two Sacred Seals (Earth Dance 1 and Res Tactic 1) can be earned as rewards. Clear maps to raise your score and earn rewards. You can also receive Refining Stones by completing daily quests.

We’ll also briefly mention that Special Maps: Rival Domains has seen its regularly weekly update. Bonuses can be earned for defeating foes with cavalry allies.

Niantic has outlined some of the upcoming events planned for Pokemon GO.

First up, during the weekends of special live events, the mobile title will be hosting Professor Willow’s Global Challenge. Here players will be tasked with completing Research Tasks, with players given “amazing bonuses” if goals are met.

At E3 this week, Forbes caught up with Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime for a lengthy chat. The two sides spoke about Nintendo Labo, Switch’s lifespan, third-parties, mobile, and collaborations.

We have these excerpts from the interview below. You can read the full discussion here.

A couple of new quests are now available in Fire Emblem Heroes. A set of quests for Tap Battle will be available for the duration of the current run of the Illusory Dungeon. Two notable rewards for these quests are new accessories: the Swim Goggles and Askran Hairpin.

Also, new Arena quests are available. As with previous times quests like these were available, they come in three difficulty tiers, so as soon as you clear the Normal tier of quests, the Hard tier becomes available, and then there’s a set of Lunatic difficulty quests after that. These quests will reset in six days, and then they’ll be available for another week after that.
