On its surface, Style Savvy: Trendsetters may not seem like a huge game. But it really is.
If you plan on downloading Trendsetters from the eShop, you’ll need a pretty big SD card. The game takes up 10,500 blocks, which is roughly 1.35GB.
In case you were wondering, those two figures do not take DLC into account.
Renegade Kid’s Mutant Mudds is a pure platform at heart. Before the final product was decided on, however, the studio was considering making the game similar to Metroid.
Co-founder Jools Watsham revealed on Twitter that “Mutant Mudds was ‘Metroidlike’, with power-up abilities being used as ‘keys’ to access new areas.” The title we know of today pretty much disregarded that gameplay, though it is somewhat represented in the secret levels.
With the old Wiimotes, the sync button was hidden away behind the battery cover. That has changed with the updated model – the Wii U branded Wiimotes.
As shown in the picture above, the sync button has been moved. That should make it more accessible to those who need to connect the controller to the console.

A new Bravely Default game is in the works, but it may not be what you expect.
This week’s Famitsu revealed a new free-to-play game for the PC, which will see a beta test shortly.
So why are we posting about it here? Because Square Enix is planning on having the 3DS title and new PC game connect in some way. The exact details on this aren’t yet available, but it will be interesting to see how the two connect.
More information about the PC game is posted here.

– For the six month period ending on September 30, 2012, Nintendo recorded global sales of ¥201bn (£1.58bn/$2.52bn/€1.94bn)
– This is down 6.8 percent on the same period for the year previous, recording a loss of ¥28bn (£220m/$350.7m/€270.2m)
– Nintendo is recovering from the ¥70.2bn loss it made for the first six months of the last financial year
– Net income per share stabilized from a loss of ¥549.53 for the first six months of last year to a loss of ¥218.93 for the period just ended

Nintendo statement:
“The Company continues to focus on selling Nintendo 3DS during the second half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013 and aims to expand its business by launching the Wii U system as the successor of Wii in the year-end sales season in the main regions of the world. The earnings forecast has been modified to reflect a yen appreciation stronger than expected at the beginning of the fiscal year, the actual sales result for the six-month period ended September 30, 2012 and a change in the outlook for the following six-month period from October 2012 through March 2013 by reviewing the mix of each hardware and software sales unit forecast. During the second half of this fiscal year, the assumed exchange rate of the yen to the U.S. dollar has remained at 80 yen per U.S. dollar, while that of the yen to the euro has been revised from 105 yen to 100 yen per euro.”
