Work on Candle is complete, and the indie game is starting to debut on various platforms today. View a new trailer for the game below.
Candle is still scheduled for Wii U, but it’s unclear if Switch will affect those plans. I imagine we’ll find out in the months ahead.
Update: We have a release date for the Wii U version in Europe: November 24.
Original: Ohayou! Beginner’s Japanese is heading to the North American Wii U eShop next week. After that, Finger Fun Games has some additional plans for the game.
At some point in the future, Ohayou! Beginner’s Japanese should make its way to both Switch and 3DS. All versions will also be updated with vocabulary, grammar, and kanji.

Update: And sold out. Only lasted a few minutes!
Original: You can add Toys “R” Us to the lineup of retailers that is taking online orders for the NES Classic Edition today. It’s currently up on this page. We did see the NES Classic Edition sell out at both Best Buy and GameStop quickly, so it’ll likely be the same case here as well.
The New 3DS has been given three new color options in Europe: Orange + Black, Pearl White, and Pink + White. Check out a launch video below.
Nintendo is once again conducting Wii U and 3DS early next week. Certain network services such as online play and rankings will be impacted for a couple of hours on Monday in North America, and Tuesday in Europe.

– 7 PM ET (November 14) – 9 PM ET (November 14)
– 12 AM in the UK (November 15) – 2 AM in the UK (November 15)

To ring in the launch of the NES Classic Edition, a special event was held at Nintendo NY. We now have a few photos of the event straight from the big N. For a look at the fun last night, hit up the gallery below. You can also read their descriptions below.

If there’s one thing Monster Hunter is known for, it’s the various collaborations each game features. The latest issue of V Jump is now teasing a partnership with Detective Conan – otherwise known as Case Closed. According to the magazine, two pieces of armor based on the manga are planned, though no further details or images are included.
Today, Japanese TV show Game Center CX aired its final episode featuring Pokemon Red/Green. Check out the final episode below to see if Arino manages to catch them all:
Nintendo Badge Arcade was released one year ago in Europe and North America – to celebrate this, Nintendo is running a special celebration in both regions.
