Those in Japan can now pre-load Super Mario Maker for 3DS from the eShop. To do so, at least 2,909 blocks (363.625 MB) of free space is required on an SD card. The size may vary slightly in other regions, but probably by very little if at all.
At the moment, Super Mario Maker for 3DS isn’t up for pre-load in North America. We’ll let you know when that changes, and it should be soon.

Marvelous just prepared a new update for Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns. When version 1.3 is applied, players will find two new marriage candidates: Stephanie and Woofio.
Here’s some footage of the two:
Other than the additions of Stephanie and Woofio, new events with the secret marriage candidate Inari have been added. Miscellaneous game balance adjustments are implemented as well.
The Edge Joystick is one of two new peripherals Emio created for the NES Classic Edition. Unfortunately, reports are coming in that the accessory isn’t working with Nintendo’s device. It’s compatible with the Wii and Wii U, but in terms of the NES Classic Edition, buyers are out of luck. Best Buy is apparently recalling The Edge Joystick, asking consumers to return it.
Emio does at least seem to be aware of the situation, and is hoping to rectify things. The incompatibility is due to a missing adapter not included in the box. If you’re one of these people affected, Emio is advising consumers on Facebook to send an email to [email protected].
Konami has prepared another Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball Heroes trailer, this time clocking in at five minutes. Watch it below.
A new video from Game Informer shows off the Tribalstack Tropics level in Yooka-Laylee. Several minutes of footage is below.
A couple of new 3DS themes are out now in Japan. Here’s the lineup:

– DanMachi (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?)
– Funi Funi Marshmallow

There is no denying that the Pokémon franchise is somewhat of a rarity in the gaming industry. To have a series so well-beloved by new and old fans alike for twenty years, it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to assume that something like Pokémon would have petered out long ago. It’s still going strong even after such a long time has passed. However, along with two decades worth of games comes a desire to innovate and to avoid the underlying possibility of stagnation and repetition. Now, with Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon on the horizon and the promise of a fresh take on its tried-and-true formula, the seventh generation surpasses all expectations and delivers not only one of the finest entries in the franchise to date, but one of the best role playing games of the year.
When Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon launch on Friday, a special real-life Z-Ring will also be made available. It lights up, vibrates, and emits sounds to go along with what’s happening in-game. Kotaku now has a video up showing the Z-Ring – view it below.
