Nintendo Life published a new interview with Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino. Hino had much to say about Layton’s Mystery Journey, including how he wants to make “Mystery Journey” a new series, supporting Switch in the future, and a possible new movie.
We’ve rounded up some of the more interesting comments from Hino below. You can read the full interview here.
The Splatoon Twitter account has revealed another new song by the in-universe band “Wet Floor”. The song, “Endolphin Surge”, will be used as BGM in Splatoon 2.
The next 8 combatants have been revealed for the Voting Gauntlet and all of them are clerics. You will be able to choose from Elise, Sakura, Maria, Lachesis, Lissa, Priscilla, Clarine and Mist. To prepare for this event there will be 2 new summoning focuses starting today, both include 4 of these 8 healers. So if you’re looking for a specific cleric this would be your chance to grab one.
By entering the code MATSUBUSA, you will be given 5 Mega Stones for your copy of Pokemon Sun or Moon. The stones include Sceptilite, Blazikenite, Swampertite, Banettite and Cameruptite. There is no indicator for how long the event will last, so it might be better to download sooner than later.
Update: The code seems to now be available in Europe too, so the article has been updated to reflect that.
The latest Pokemon battle competition is now live in Pokemon Sun and Moon. The Tiny Tourney uses a double battle format and your Pokemon must be under 1.0 meter (3’03”). Transferred Pokemon can be used. All participants will receive Galladite, Gardevoirite, and Lopunnite. Battles will go from June 23rd – June 25th.
Gamexplain has just uploaded a full video playthrough of the Hey! Pikmin demo. Check it out below.
