Shigeru Miyamoto is celebrating his 61st birthday today. Miyamoto, the creator of Mario, Zelda, and plenty of other Nintendo franchises, was born on November 16, 1952.
With that, Happy Birthday, Shigeru Miyamoto!
Bravely Default is now simply called… Bravely Default in Europe. Nintendo was originally planning a “Where the Fairy Flies” subtitle, but it has since been dropped.
Review copies starting to make their way around confirm that Bravely Default does not contain a subtitle of any kind in Europe. That should be the case for North America as well.
Pokemon X/Y players in Japan will soon have the opportunity to obtain Wobbuffet. The creature will be available through the Pokemon Tretta arcade game.
Here’s the full rundown of the upcoming Wobbuffet event, courtesy of Serebii:
A new Pokémon X & Y event has been announced for Japan. This event ties in with the Pokémon Tretta arcade game. In the new set, there is a specific Wobbuffet Tretta (either Normal or Super Class) and, if you take it to either the World Hobby Fair on January 19th, 25th, 26th/February 2nd/9th or to the Pokémon Card Battle Festa on December 15th/23rd, you have the opportunity to use that Tretta in a special machine. When you do so, this sends out the signal for you to download Wobbuffet onto Pokémon X & Y. Once done, the Tretta is replaced by a blank Tretta puck and cannot be used in the arcade game again.
“Ubisoft has a long-standing relationship with Nintendo. Most recently this has been reinforced by our varied and high-quality line-up for Wii U, with big titles including Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, Just Dance 2014, Rayman Legends, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist already released and Watch Dogs on the way.”
– Ubisoft representative
The above doesn’t seem indicative of either a lack of support or a plethora of it coming forward– it’s just a standard PR response with very little going on under the hood.
Nintendo has listed another title for release on the North American Wii U eShop next week. Frontier Developments will launch Coaster Crazy Deluxe on November 21. No word on pricing as of yet.
