Super Paper Mario recently came out in North America as a Wii download for Wii U. It was also just added to the European eShop today. View some footage below.
Pokemon GO launched with a McDonald’s partnership a couple of weeks ago. Over 3,000 locations became either PokeStops or Gyms. The move made sense for the fast food restaurant, as they likely knew it would boost business.
And that’s exactly what’s happened. McDonald’s sales in Japan rose 27 percent last month, with the company stating that there was demand for children’s meals featuring Pokemon toys and increased traffic thanks to Pokemon GO.
That’s definitely good news for McDonald’s, but the restaurant believes it’s too early to estimate Pokemon GO’s impact on earnings. That being said, more customers are being drawn in due to the partnership.
Beginning with CoroCoro’s September 15 issue, a manga based on Pokemon Sun/Moon will be serialized. It’ll star a new trainer and his partner Rockruff as they go through the Alola Region.
The Japanese Pokemon Sun/Moon website has now updated with a few preview pages of the manga. View them in the gallery below.
Update (8/11): New Nintendo Selects are up on Best Buy.
Update (8/10): These are all now live on Amazon. $16 each for Prime members.
Original (8/9): Retailers are beginning to take pre-orders for the new Nintendo Selects and Wii U amiibo bundles Nintendo announced earlier today.
Five Nintendo Selects are currently up on GameStop here. Amazon Canada is now taking reservations for all except nintendogs + cats here.
If you’re looking for the amiibo bundles, they’re all available on Amazon here. Amazon Canada also has them here.
Even though Dragon Quest VII is about a month away, some members of the press are already getting their hands on the game (in Europe anyway). We’re hearing that the download version amounts to 11,638, which is 1454.75MB. It should be roughly the same amount in North America.
Two Ace Attorney downloads have been discounted on the 3DS eShop. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies are on sale in both North America and Europe.
