Some new Paper Mario: Color Splash has been appearing today following the release of several new media previews. In one video, we’re able to see the return of a certain familiar enemy. If you’ve played practically any Mario game, the appearance shouldn’t be surprising, though it’s slightly different than we’re used to. In any case, you can find the video after the break – just to be extra careful with spoilers.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U / 3DS may have had one Square Enix character in Cloud, but Sora from Kingdom Hearts – another much-requested addition – was left off the roster. Fans are now looking to remedy that with a new skin.

Using Shulk as a base, it’s now possible to play as Sora in the Wii U version of Smash Bros. via modding. You can nab the download here. And for a closer look, watch the video below.
