A big rumor surfaced this week about Nintendo potentially creating a SNES Mini for release later this year. Whether or not that actually happens remains to be seen. But with the NES Classic Edition / NES Mini being such a big hit, the possibility is certainly there.

Are there any far out games you’d like to see though? What would be your dream lineup? Let us know in the comments below.

Bravely Second: End Layer is celebrating its second anniversary today. On the series’ official Japanese Twitter page, Square Enix confirms that worldwide sales have surpassed 700,000 units. Fans were also thanked for their support of the series.
Bravely Second was the second entry in the overall “Bravely” franchise. No new core games have been announced, but it almost looks like Square Enix is taking some inspiration from it with the upcoming Switch RPG Project Octopath Traveler.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s credits for beating all twelve cups are pretty similar to what was included on Wii U. However, there are some extra scenes, and some name additions – such as Tatsumi Kimishima at the end. Watch the full credits below.
