Nintendo Everything

Last month, we shared some excerpts from a Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice developer interview included in a recent issue of Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream. If you missed it, head on over here for tidbits about Maya’s return, scrapped ideas, and more.

What we translated didn’t actually cover Nintendo Dream’s entire discussion. There were also several pages dedicated entirely to talk about the different characters in the game, ranging from big ones like Phoenix and Apollo up through new additions such as Ahlbi. We now have an extremely lengthy summary based on the interview with Motohide Eshiro (producer), Takeshi Yamazaki (director), and Takuro Fuse (co-director).

If you decide to proceed, be aware that there are some light spoilers. The summary covers characters included in multiple cases.

Pokemon GO has become a huge hit. During the first month that it’s been out, we’ve heard about some pretty crazy stories relating to the game. So what sort of things would happen if Animal Crossing GO existed? We explore that in our new comic below!

A new Pokemon GO exploit is starting to circulate, making it impossible to take over a gym.

The issue comes down entirely to eggs. Somehow, players have managed to make them gym leaders. But due to a lack of moves and HP, eggs can’t be defeated. The egg simply stays there and can’t be removed in any way.

Reports thus far have pointed to issues with gyms in New York City. You can see a couple of videos showing how the exploit is affecting players below.

VIZ Media made it known yesterday that the company is localizing the Zelda: Twilight Princess manga. Just as we learned from an Otakon panel, the first volume will be made available in English next March. As for the rest of the world? Fortunately, there are plans to have the manga in other languages as well.

Tokyopop will be handling the German version of the Zelda: Twilight Princess manga, and it’ll actually be coming out very soon. The first volume is due out on November 17 for €6.50. Plans are also in place for Spanish and French editions.

Thanks to Tokyopop, we also now know how long the manga will run for. The publisher confirmed that a total of four volumes will be released.

Lastly, Tokyopop will also be bringing out The Legend of Zelda: Legendary Edition based on Ocarina of Time on November 17. North America will have it on November 1.

Thanks to GameFly, we now have the boxart for River City: Tokyo Rumble. You can see what it looks like above.

Originally, River City: Tokyo Rumble was going to be digital-only. Natsume ended up opting for a “limited edition physical release” following fan feedback.

Collateral Thinking was originally supposed to end up on the North American Wii U eShop this week. That didn’t happen though, with developer Astrosaurus Games telling us that a “few paperwork hiccups” prompted a short delay.

Collateral Thinking will now be released in North America next Thursday. It’s the same day as the PAL launch, so all territories will be receiving it at the same time.

If you want to give Collateral Thinking a try ahead of time, head on over here for a PC demo.
