Update: Added in one more score.
This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:
Kirby Triple Deluxe (3DS) – 9/9/8/9
Houkago Colorful Step Undoubu! (PSP) – 7/7/6/5
Only one score as of now. If any additional reviews leak, we’ll update this post.
Update: Poke Transporter is 218 blocks, or 27.5MB.
Pokemon Bank takes up a very small amount of space on an SD card. You’ll need to reserve just 239 blocks of free space. That amounts to about 30MB.
Game Informer has put up an insightful interview with Retro Studios CEO Michael Kelbaugh and Nintendo producer Kensuke Tanabe. The two spoke about how the game’s delay benefited development, revealed Monster Games’ involvement with the project, talked about the possibility of a 3DS version, and more. Tanabe also teased, “we may consider not just the Donkey Kong Country series but a broader range of possibilities for Retro’s next project.”
You can find the full interview breakdown below. Game Informer’s entire piece is located here.
A few weeks ago, GameStop discounted the Wii U version of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate to $20. That same price has now been put into effect for the 3DS version. You can place an order online here.
GameStop is also running a deal for the Skylanders Swap Force Wii U bundle. You can pick one up for $249.99. View the product page here. GameStop also has the original Wii U 32GB Deluxe Set for $250, though it can only be found in store.
