Max Factory has revealed three more Nintendo figmas currently in production. Zero Suit Samus (Metroid: Other M), Link (Zelda: A Link Between Worlds) and Cordelia (Fire Emblem: Awakening) will get new releases down the road. Samus and Link are both “regular” figmas while Cordelia will be a scaled figure.
Thanks to NutOfDeath for the tip.
Dr. Mario is seeing a release on the Wii U Virtual Console… eventually. Nintendo of Europe has a dedicated page up for the game, but with a “TBD” release date. I assume we’ll be seeing it on the eShop sooner rather than later though!

Original: ONM is teasing a new Wii U title for its next issue. While the magazine itself didn’t offer much in the way of hints, editor Matthew Castle has ruled out one possibility.
Castle confirmed on Twitter that the mystery game isn’t related to Sonic Boom. He said:
@Joshawott It isn't Sonic, no, but what it is may no longer be relevant. Contents subject to change, as always.

The comment “what it is may no longer be relevant” is a bit interesting. Perhaps an attempt to lower expectations? Could it be some other Wii U title we recently heard about such as Art of Balance? Or maybe we’ll be hearing about the game before the next issue of ONM is out?
Have you ever bought a game based on nothing but the title? I sure have and that’s why I’m now writing about Jesus: Ky?fu no Bio Monster (or to use the fan-translated name – Jesus: Tale of the Dreadful Bio-Monster). Don’t go into Jesus expecting some kind of insane Japanese take on Christianity, though, as it’s more about researchers fighting space monsters and anime girls rocking out on synthesizers – or sometimes both at the same time. It’s hardly the most exciting game to play, but it still manages to be crazy in its own way.
