Splatoon Update

Kicking off a steady stream of free content additions throughout the summer, Splatoon has a new weapon and map: the nostalgia-packed N-Zap ’85 rapid-fire shooter and the Port Mackerel map, both available now. The N-ZAP ’85 is a shooter with excellent ink efficiency and rapid-fire capability. Its attack power isn’t all that, but it’s fabulous at quickly charging up the Echolocator special weapon. Combined with Splat Bombs, this set caters to fighters who like to cover a lot of ground in battle. For more information, visit http://splatoon.nintendo.com.

Pac-Attack is launching on the North American Wii U eShop as the latest Virtual Console title, Nintendo’s website confirms. The classic game will be priced at $7.99.

Here’s a brief overview:

Pac-Man makes a rare appearance outside of a maze environment in Pac-Attack, a fun and quirky puzzle game! This unique entry in the genre puts its own twist on established conventions and adds one of gaming’s most iconic characters to the mix. The goal is simple: keep your screen clear of falling blocks and ghosts. You can clear blocks by lining them up horizontally, causing them to disappear. Clearing the ghosts, though, requires the help of a hungry Pac-Man (who just happens to swing by every so often for a snack). It’s up to you to get all of the ghosts lined up for him, because Pac-Man will keep eating them until he is stopped by a block or he runs out of ghosts. In addition, his range of movement on the playing field is limited to horizontal or downward—thus adding further strategy. There are three game modes to choose from: 1P Normal, 2P Versus, and the challenging 1P Puzzle.

Shin’en shared fresh screenshots from FAST Racing Neo today, but that’s only the start of the studio’s plans to promote the game. The company has confirmed that the first footage will debut later this month. Previously, we heard about a video coming sometime during the summer.

Shin’en has also reiterated some of FAST Racing Neo’s details. It’ll run at 60 frames per second at 720p resolution, and there will be support for 1-4 local multiplayer as well as online multiplayer with rankings.
