At Minecon 2016, new DLC was revealed for the console versions of Minecraft. All platforms – including Wii U – will be receiving a new Chinese Mythology Mash-Up Pack.
Players can expect the following from the DLC:
“In the new Minecraft: Console Edition Chinese Mythology Mash-Up, come explore ancient temples hidden among the cherry blossoms and survive the night at the Great Wall. In this new mash-up, you will be able to visit an exquisitely created pre-made world. Wander through the streets of an ancient great city, marvel at the dragons that dwell around the high mountains, contemplate on your crafting within a mythical monastery and just enjoy the view as you walk through fields and discover how mobs would look in ancient China. This mash-up also brings you 41 new skins to choose from and 13 themed music tracks for your worlds made using this pack.”
The Chinese Mythology Mash-up also packs in a special map for use in the Battle mini game.

Gotta Protector’s localization was confirmed last February. However, it wasn’t until late July that the game made its way to North America.
Localization veteran Brian Gray was the main person behind Gotta Protector’s English version. In an interview with Michibiku, he mentioned that 8-4 helped out, but it was only him who translated the project.
According to Gray:
“8-4 had their usual — awesome! — team looking over everything and handling the bulk of communication with Ancient, but the translation was entirely me.”
In the same discussion, Gray also touched on how he became involved with Gotta Protectors and the origins of the English version. Regarding this, he said:
Earlier in the year, indie developer VaragtP put out a simulation game Plantera. Ratalaika Games is now porting it over to both Wii U and 3DS.

The objective of Plantera is to create your own garden and grow it with new plants, bushes, trees, and animals. Helpers will eventually give you assistance as your garden grows by picking up things and harvesting your plants – even when you’re not playing. However, other critters will invade your garden and will need to be taken down.
Here’s a trailer for the game:

The Pokemon GO Plus device only just arrived last week, but fans are already having a tough time tracking it down. In Japan, we heard that new shipments aren’t expected until early November. The situation is better in the UK, though only slightly.
Nintendo UK mentioned on Twitter recently that its store will have more stock of Pokemon GO Plus in late October. That means we’re probably about a month away before the accessory returns again.
