The English translation of Iwata Asks: The Wonderful 101 is now live. It contains five pages of talk between Nintendo president Satoru Iwata and game director Hideki Kamiya. This one doesn’t have a ton of information about the game, but you can get some interesting insight into Kamiya’s past. Another interview will be published in the near future that is more focused on The Wonderful 101.

GameStop has announced the “Dark Edition Starter Pack” for Skylanders Swap Force. The package will be sold exclusively through the retailer, and pre-orders are going live today.

It includes:

• 1- Video Game
• 1- Portal of Power
• 5- Exclusive Dark Edition Skylanders Figures (Dark Washbuckler, Dark Blast Zone, Dark Stealth Elf, Dark Spyro and Dark Lockjaw)
• 1- Mega Character Poster
• 5- Sticker Sheets with secret codes
• 5- Trading Cards

And here’s the official overview of the Dark Edition:

While on a special mission, a team of Skylanders discovered a secret lair where Kaos was experimenting with a new discovery – Petrified Darkness – which he intended to use to take over all of Skylands! In the fight to stop Kaos, the lair exploded, releasing a cloud of pure Darkness. The Skylanders knew they could not let it escape, so they absorbed the dark energy, transforming them into dark versions of themselves. Fortunately, Spyro had learned to tame the darkness within him long ago. So with his help, these Skylanders now have also learned to control it – combining its power with their own to fight Kaos and the forces of evil.

You can pre-order Skylanders Swap Force Dark Edition here (Wii U/Wii, no 3DS). Pricing is set at $99.99.

It’s a bit laggy, but still watchable!

The UK games retailer market has experienced its worst month ever, according to a new MCV report.

July sales were down 40.4 percent from June, with boxed game sales coming in at just over a million. That’s a 33.3 decrease year-over-year. Stores took in just £23m through game sales last month.

New software was an issue, as were other factors such as the warm weather (and people choosing to stay outside) as well as the wait for more new consoles. Nintendo did say, however, that it was pleased with 3DS sales in July.

Here’s the full top ten game sales for the month of July 2013:

1: The Last of Us (Sony)
2: Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition (Microsoft)
3. Animal Crossing: New Leaf (Nintendo)
4. FIFA 13 (EA)
5. Far Cry 3 (Ubisoft)
6. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros (Nintendo)
7. Tomb Raider (Square Enix)
8. Assassin’s Creed III (Ubisoft)
9. Call of Duty: Black Ops II (Activision)
10. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Legendary (Bethesda)
