Well, there you have it: The first ever NEBC game is Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In order to participate in the discussion, you should pick up the game within the next few days. Your options to obtain the game are as follows:
Wii Virtual Console Copy ($8 on the Wii Shop Channel)
Deadline for email submissions this week: April 12th
Well, this is the first week of the NEBC ever, so we’re going to take it very slow: Simply obtain the first star piece in the game, and stop there. We’ll all know more about what that means when we start the game I hope!
Since we can’t easily divide by chapters (like you could with a book) we’re better off aiming low and finishing quickly rather than having to scramble and accidentally leaving folks behind. Once we have a better handle on how the game is paced, we’ll adjust our weekly goals.
Also, please do not send us emails discussing portions of the game beyond where the book club is. We want to avoid spoilers and we don’t want to feel unable to answer your questions/respond to your comments, so if you’ve gotten ahead of everyone (which is fine!) do your best to only talk about the parts that we’ve all agreed upon. :]

During Nintendo Direct’s February broadcast, Nintendo teased an exclusive Animal Crossing: New Leaf feature for both North America and Europe. The company has now made the mystery inclusion public through the newly-translated Iwata Asks interview.
New Leaf allows players to collect houses through StreetPass and view them in the Happy Home Showcase. According to an editor’s note posted in the the Iwata Asks discussion, Nintendo plans to distribute its own homes in this area. Nothing mind-blowing, but a neat little feature for sure.
