REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– The Year of Luigi is going strong. So far, Luigi has explored multiple haunted mansions in Luigiās Mansion: Dark Moon for Nintendo 3DS, partnered up with his brother in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, also for Nintendo 3DS, and taken the Wii U downloadable content world by storm in New Super Luigi U. On Aug. 25, New Super Luigi U will be available as a packaged-disc version for Wii U that will be sold in retail stores. The game joins the downloadable version available in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U.
The retail version of New Super Luigi U comes in a unique green case that will look excellent on any game shelf. Fans that purchase the retail version of New Super Luigi U for a suggested retail price of $29.99 do not need to own a copy of New Super Mario Bros. U to play. For Wii U users who already own a copy of New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U is still available as a download in the Nintendo eShop for $19.99.
Update (8/22): Now confirmed to be the red Ember.

Natsume is including different Ember plushies with Hometown Story pre-orders. GameStop will be giving out a green Ember. Natsume’s store is offering a yellow one. And it looks like Amazon will have its own Ember up for grabs, too.
Amazon is currently taking pre-orders for “Hometown Story with Ember the Dragon Plush”. With green and yellow colors already taken, Amazon should be providing either a blue or red plushie.
Natsume isn’t done supporting the Virtual Console. In a new Facebook update, the company confirmed it is “looking into other titles from our GBC and SNES catalogues.” Natsume hopes to have more news later this year.
