Update: Deal is dead on Amazon, but you may be able to find the game in-store at Target for the same price.

Amazon has Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Wii U Edition for one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for the game thus far. You can purchase the fighter for just $10 – it’s certainly worth that much.

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is somewhat special on Wii U. It features costumes from Nintendo’s franchises along with a unique mode which incorporates power-ups from the Mario series.

Zelda: A Link Between Worlds has shown improvement since its showing at E3 2013. Some aspects have been changed/added as well.

Here’s a quick comparison of an E3 2013 screenshot and an October image released last week:

The Quebec government will be assisting Warner Bros. Games Montreal in expanding its staff count. Over the next five years, the studio will be adding on 100 new employees.

This is just the latest case of Quebec lending its support to the gaming industry. It was only a few days ago that Ubisoft announced a staff increase of its own after receiving a $9.9 million contribution and tax credit from the government.

So strange. So fantastic.



If you enjoy EarthBound, this is the episode for you. Most of it was regular “Here’s a Podcast” nonsense, but the last 45 minutes were dedicated to discussing that esoteric and beloved 1994 game from designer Shigesato Itoi, and I think it was an extremely fitting tribute. WWP includes Kerbal Space Program, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies, and Harvest Moon/Rune Factory 4; listener mail includes some stuff I cant’t remember.

A whole bunch of photos from Pokemon X/Y have come in over the past few days showing a slew of new Pokemon, different areas in the game, and more. We’ve collected a ton of images we’ve come across, and we’ve rounded them up in a single gallery for your convenience.

Head past the break for all of the photos. Note that some of the images could be spoiler-sensitive for some.

New Square Enix president Yosuke Matsuda recently sounded off on the need for the company to “reform with urgency”. Matsuda was speaking with Japanese site Infoseek when he shared the news.

Matsuda’s comments read (as translated by (Siliconera):

“The business model is at a turning-point. Up until now, the profit of home-console games have been decided by price times the number [sold]. Development and sales were divided, and the game developers only needed to concentrate on their work. That’s where the strengths of our company laid within.

“At the very beginning, the game business started out with ‘how can we get people to insert coins’. Afterwards, consoles became popular, and our company grew as game design and billing [methods] were divided. Presently, online games are prosperous, which again, has the theme of ‘how can we charge the people,’ as developers and sales have become inseparable. And the devices they can be played on has spread vastly. It’s truly a paradigm shift.
