Nintendo release schedule – Tomodachi Collection for Japan, other tidbits

Remember Tomodachi Collection 3DS? It was announced in August of last year, but dropped off the radar following the initial reveal. The game is still in development, according to an updated release schedule from Nintendo, and it’s still on track to launch this spring.

There are other interesting inclusions in the schedule. Nintendo lists the new Monolith Wii U game for Japan, but not North America and Europe. That’s rather strange. I have a feeling that Nintendo won’t be stingy with its localization like it was with Xenoblade, but the non-inclusion is peculiar.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf is coming to North America “early” this year. Europe is getting the game between April and June. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD is reconfirmed for release in all three major territories (North America, Europe, and Japan) this fall.

Take a look at the full release schedule above.
