Yet another Xenoblade Chronicles X video has been published, showing English voice acting. You can view it below. Just beware of some spoilers!

Update (10/7): Bumped to the top. The dream of more characters might be dead. Nintendo has updated the website, and it now says three characters instead of five.


Original (10/6): Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash’s full site has gone live. Access it here.

On the page, Nintendo mentions that the game “features five new characters alongside returning fan favorites.” Based on what we’ve previously seen, we know of three entirely new roster additions. That should mean there are two others we don’t know about currently.

Finally, we’ve rounded up the various clips from Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash’s site. Find five minutes of footage below (warning: shows some of the secret characters, though I suppose they really aren’t at this point).

The latest look at Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash is an online match featuring amiibo. Check it out below.

Last week, Nintendo kicked off Splatoon’s seventh Splatfest in North America and Japan. The same event has now gone live in Europe, but with a different topic.

The two sides battling it out this time around are zombies and ghosts. Players will have until 19:00 CET / 18:00 GMT tomorrow to participate. Once the event finishes, we’ll have the results shortly after.

The Play Nintendo YouTube page has kicked off a new Yoshi’s Woolly World “Adventure Guide”. The third episode, published today, can be seen below.

Yuji Naka has created a few titles at Prope, including Ivy the Kiwi? and Rodea: The Sky Soldier. Both have been standalone games, but that doesn’t mean Naka isn’t interested in making sequels – quite the opposite actually.

Speaking with Hardcore Gamer, Naka expressed interest in returning to Ivy the Kiwi? if given the opportunity. The same also goes for Rodea. At the same time, he’s also thinking about completely new ideas.

Naka said:

“Ivy the Kiwi and Rodea are two titles that have a special part in my heart, so I would love to try creating sequels if I am given the opportunity. I constantly have ideas for new titles. Though I cannot say them here, please look forward to the day I can show them to the public.”

Naka further expressed interest in revisiting Rodea when asked if he’d like to see a comic series based on the game:

“If I am given the opportunity, I would love to have Rodea as a comic book series. I also personally want to see more of Rodea’s adventures.”
