Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 6 Comments
Splatoon’s fifth North American Splatfest will take place next weekend, Nintendo has revealed.
In the new competition, art and science will face off. Here’s the official notice from the Splatoon Tumblr:
“The next Splatfest draws near! Next week, we pit art against science! Now, we here at the Squid Research Lab know that you’re a talented bunch of artists. We’ve seen what you can do in art contests, on Miiverse and, not to mention, all the rad fan art uploaded to Tumblr! It seems at first glance that art will have no problem taking it all. BUT! When you think about all the greats hanging out on the science side (Bill Nye! Neil deGrasse Tyson! Beakman!), it’s not hard to see how science could win this one!”
This new Splatfest will kick off on September 18 at 9 PM PT (12 AM ET on September 19). It will last through the following day.

There’s a simple code that can be used to unlock the CRT mode. On the level’s loading screen, simply hold down on the d-pad and press B and A together. That’s it!

Genei Ibun Roku #FE launching this December in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in News, Wii U | 6 Comments
The game formerly known as Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem now has an official release date for Japan. Nintendo has just announced that the Wii U exclusive title will be making its way to store shelves on December 26th this year.
The game will come in three different formats: Standard, the “Fortissimo Edition”, and a Wii U bundle. Standard edition gives you just the game for normal retail price, while the Fortissimo Edition will give tons of extra goodies typically found in ATLUS releases — this includes an art book, a soundtrack, codes for costume DLC, as well as a special boxart. The Wii U bundle has everything included in the Fortissimo Edition, plus, of course, the console, added stickers, and DLC for three extra quests. Additionally, those who purchase the Fortissimo Edition or Wii U bundle will be able to obtain tickets for a concert taking place in Japan on May 15.
No official date yet on when Genei Ibun Roku #FE will be coming west, but it is slated for 2016 in Europe and North America.
Below you can find photos on all the contents contained in the aforementioned Genei Ibun Roku #FE editions.
