Amazon UK/Germany as well along with GAME Spain recently put up listings for a Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker amiibo bundle. This package has now been officially confirmed for Europe.
The Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker amiibo bundle contains a copy of the game and a Toad figure, much like the package that came to Japan earlier this year. It’s coming to Denmark on July 24, and it should be out in other European territories around the same time (if not on the same day).
As of now, we haven’t heard of any plans to distribute a Captain Toad amiibo bundle in North America.

Brawler – Heihachi (Tekken)
Gunner – Isabelle
Gunner – MegaMan.EXE
Swordfighter – Zero
Also added Ryu and Roy’s color variations to the gallery below.
It’s official: Ryu and Roy are coming to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS.
While the characters themselves aren’t a surprise thanks to data that previously outed their existence, confirmations of both certainly are. Clips for the two characters leaked out in the early morning about an hour or two ago. Take a look at both below.
Unfortunately for Nintendo, the leaks don’t stop at characters. We have a first look at Ryu’s stage, as well as an Inkling Girl trophy. Supposedly, Dreamland 64 is coming to both versions of Smash Bros., and new music tracks include Rhythm Heaven’s Blue Birds and Monkey Watch.
The source of the leak apparently stems from an early patch that went live in Japan. All of this content may possibly be available for download starting tomorrow!
Thanks to Timz117 and dimweat for the tip.

Boss Revenge mode heading to Bloodstained as Kickstarter surpasses $5.5 million
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
As Kickstarter campaigns wind down, donations typically tend to slow down a bit. With Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, however, it’s been quite the opposite.
There’s only two or so hours remaining before the Bloodstained Kickstarter campaign ends. Even so, the game has been quickly clearing stretch goals over the past couple of days, and the (true) final one has now been reached.
Bloodstained has now generated $5.5 million on Kickstarter when combined with PayPal funds. That means the game will include a special Boss Revenge mode. This will feature the following:
– Control several different bosses
– Utilize their special attacks to wreak havok
– Explore a new BOSS REVENGE area
– Turn the tables and defeat “Hero” Bosses in your pursuit of humanity’s destruction
The Kickstarter for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night can be found here.
