Like some other Zelda amiibo, the Wolf Link figure isn’t the easiest thing to purchase at a standard price. That could be changing soon, however.
A new listing on Nintendo of America’s CPSIA page indicates that the Wolf Link amiibo experienced a new manufacturing run this month. More units may very well be distributed at retailers very soon.
Europe is catching up with a new Wii U Virtual Console game this week. Having previously been published in North America, Bonk’s Revenge will be out this week in Europe. Nintendo’s website lists it for release tomorrow.
Here’s an overview:
“The hard-headed hero is back for more in the second instalment of the Bonk series. Taking place in the Monster Kingdom, Bonk the Caveman must travel far and wide to find and defeat King Drool III.
Bonk’s™ Revenge is a side-scrolling action game in which you headbutt your enemies while you make your way to the end of each stage. Double or even triple your attack power by eating the slabs of meat that appear through the stages.
There are eight different hidden Bonus Stages, and the Dinosaur Train that appears after you defeat a boss will change depending on how many Smileys you’ve collected. With new actions available such as the Triangle Jump and the ability to climb trees, as well as seven variety-packed stages, Bonk’s™ Revenge will keep you playing again and again.”
Pokemon Duel players now have access to some new content. The game was updated with the Dark Gym Cup just a short while ago.
With the cup, all Dark-type Movement 1 and 2 figures have an increase of 1 for movement and Fighting-types get an Attack increase of 20 for each attack. The Darkrai Figure is also provided as a prize.
The cup lasts until May 6 at 04:59 UTC with Booster Redemptions until June.
Switch, Wii U, and 3DS will be undergoing more maintenance tonight. Certain network services such as online play and rankings may be affected for a little over an hour.
The schedule is as follows:
– 6:45 PM PT (May 31) – 8 PM PT (May 31)
– 9:45 PM ET (May 31) – 11 PM ET (May 31)
– 2:45 AM in the UK (June 1) – 4 AM in the UK (June 1)
– 3:45 AM in Europe (June 1) – 5 AM in Europe (June 1)
A new Magikarp Jump update is available and just like the previous updates it is labeled to fix bugs. This particular update makes it so players can no longer abuse the Extra League 3 glitch where the player could obtain the rewards from the league multiple times instead of just once.
A new Pokemon game has been announced for mobile devices called PokéLand and seems to be part of the Pokemon Rumble series. The game’s alpha is available for Japanese Android players to try out until June 9th. There are 134 Pokemon in the game and the goal is to climb 15 floors through the Champion Tower. Data from the alpha will be deleted upon release of the game.
Kemco is bringing another RPG to Wii U with next week’s Revenant Saga on the Japanese eShop. It may very well be released in the west as well, but you can view the official trailer below.
