In the Japanese magazine CoroCoro, a new manga has started for ARMS. The newest issue has the debut chapter. It looks more along the lines of a gag manga, but it’s pretty interesting nonetheless.
CoroCoro even has a few sample pages that can be viewed online. It’s accessible right here.
Miitomo has been updated with new content. Players can nab the latest items in the Miitomo Drop stage, “Welcome to Japan! Japanese Traditions #2”.

The latest episode of Nintendo’s Japanese show Nyannyan Neko Mario Time has now gone live. We’ve included it below.
A bunch of new games are heading to the Japanese New 3DS Virtual Console – twelve specifically. View trailers for the various titles below.

2K Sports has a bit of a dilemma on its hands. Kyrie Irving was named the cover athlete for the standard version of NBA 2K18 as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers. But as ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports, Irving has been traded to the Boston Celtics (and I’m now dying a bit on the inside as a Knicks fan).
It’s not entirely clear how 2K will approach the situation, but logic dictates that the cover will be updated with Irving in a Celtics uniform. Kotaku reached out to the company, and we’ll report back if they provide a statement.
Just to reiterate, the news only affects NBA 2K18’s standard cover. Other versions feature Shaquille O’Neal
Nintendo has confirmed the launch timing of the Pokken Tournament DX demo in North America. It’ll be live at 9 PM PT, or 12 AM ET. Nintendo confirmed earlier today that the demo will be out in Europe on Thursday.
