Wii U

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! Final Fantasy XV, Final Fantasy Explorers, Persona 5, Tales of Zestiria, and Bravely Second are the new top five.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between November 20 and November 26.

Take a look at the CD art for NES Remix Pack above. Given the nature of the package, it makes sense to pay homage to the NES!

A few more images and details about Splatoon hit the Japanese Twitter account last week. Continue on below for the latest content pertaining to the game.

This is another device made by the Octupus Army Corps. Shooting the propellers of this fan-like device with ink will cause the platform’s motor to run. Moving the propellers too fast will sometimes cause enemies to dive onto the platform. You must be cautious when using these platforms.

One of our researchers got their hands on what appears to be blue prints for the Octopus Army’s weapons.

Digital Foundry’s latest technical analysis is dedicated to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS. The site put together a comparison of the two games as well as some frame rate tests – all of which can be found below.

Digital Foundry ultimately concludes, “the fourth entry in the Smash Bros. series is a true technical milestone for both of the Kyoto giant’s leading platforms.” The Wii U version manages to provide a consistent 60 frames per second experience in 1080p, while the 3DS version also takes advantage of its hardware and almost never falters, even when 3D is enabled.
