Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures appears to be getting a budget release, which is probably for the best. Retailers such as Amazon and Best Buy are listing a $39.99 price point for all versions of the game – including the 3DS edition.
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures should be out this fall. When Namco Bandai shares a more specific date, we’ll be sure to let you know.
Capcom will hold a Monster Hunter Festa event sometime in the future to promote Monster Hunter 4. No specific dates have been announced at this time.
The last Monster Hunter Festa took place two years ago for the release of Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. Capcom ended up cancelling it midway through due to the earthquake and tsunami that affected Japan.
The first season of Eggbusters has come to a close! This episode is really long. Like, real-life-TV length. So get a bucket of popcorn and take a seat at your computer, because there’s a lot to digest, from party tricks to exploration glitches, and even some you may have heard of. Thank you all very much for watching and supporting (especially you guys on NE instead of just Youtube), and I hope you look forward to the return of this shin-dig sometime in the future!

Mutant Mudds Deluxe will be available on the North American Wii U eShop on June 13.
WayForward hasn’t shared any new updates about Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse since revealing the game in Nintendo Power’s final issue. That was over a half a year ago.
Since then, WayForward has continued working on the project diligently “and the team has been plowing it away.”
Now when might we be hearing something new about Pirate’s Curse? Soon, apparently.
WayForward’s Matt Bozon told Nintendo Force this month:
“The new Shantae (Pirate’s Curse) is a huge endeavor and the team has been plowing it away. We have incredible talent on board and will be able to share more details shortly!”
There hasn’t been a mainline Fire Emblem game on a Nintendo console since Radiant Dawn for Wii. Keeping the franchise’s console origins in mind, could we see a new entry for Wii U?
Intelligent Systems wouldn’t say. The studio would only tell ONM:
“I’m glad you seem to be interested in an HD Fire Emblem, but unfortunately at the current time I can’t make any comments about any future games. Thank you for your understanding.”
Intelligent Systems’ Kouhei Maeda was similarly quiet when asked about a new Advance Wars:
“Whether or not we have plans to bring out a new entry in the Advance Wars series is a secret.”
Writing on Twitter, Renegade Kid co-founder shared the specific control schemes that Mutant Mudds Deluxe. You’ll be able to play with the GamePad, Wiimote (or Wii Remote Plus), or Wii U Pro Controller. That should be enough to suit your gaming needs!
Many have asked for controller specifics: Mutant Mudds Deluxe supports GamePad, Wii Remote/Wii Remote Plus, and Wii U Pro Controller.

Nintendo has a deal in place with SEGA for three Sonic titles. Two have been revealed thus far: Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. These games, along with a third unannounced project, are allegedly launching this year.
In a press release covering the recent Sonic Lost World news, Nintendo of Germany stated:
“Today, they (Sega) revealed further details of the second of three titles, which the two companies will release exclusively on Wii U and 3DS. All three games will be released this year.”
I’m having a difficult time believing this. Mario & Sonic seems like a game suited for 2014, and we have yet to see the third Sonic game. Stranger things have happened, though!
