Namco Bandai didn’t make it entirely clear if the 3DS ports were included.

Could a new Mario & Luigi bundle be on the way to North America. Allegedly so. The silver system above was said to have been spotted at Walmart recently “in the back room”. It will supposedly go on sale on December 2.

I’ve been debating whether or not to post this given how the last time we thought Nintendo was going to announce a specially-designed system, it turned out to be fake. I suppose we’ll compromise by not including this in “The Digest” tab!

The second episode of Pokemon Origins is now available in English. It can now be seen through Pokemon TV.

Pokemon Origins is different than the typical Pokemon anime in that it connects directly to the Red/Blue video games.

High School DxD has been given a new release date in Japan. The company announced today that the 3DS game will be available on December 19. Pricing is set at 6,300 yen.

Today is the anniversary for not one, but two pieces of Nintendo hardware. GameCube launched on November 18 in the states. The Wii U was released one year ago today in North America as well. Congratulations to both!

Detune recently put up KORG M01D on the 3DS eShop. That’s not the only piece of software the company intends to bring to Nintendo’s portable.

Speaking with Nintendo Life, Detune’s Nobuyoshi Sano confirmed the existence of a brand new title, of which details are “top secret”. While Sano wouldn’t share any specifics, he did say that it has something to do with sound.

Sano commented:

Yes! We have yet to really get started, but yes we do have something planned! The details of the software are top secret, but I can say one thing — Detune will be making it, which means it will be something that has to do with sound. And we plan to make full use of the 3DS display! Stay tuned!
