Splatoon has a few mini-games, most of which are unlocked via amiibo. There are only four included at the moment… but could another one be on the way?

In Splatoon’s final map, Ancho-V Games, players have noticed that a poster can be seen showing a non-existent mini-game. Since most mini-games are unlocked with amiibo, some believe this is further evidence that more figures are on the way. There have been rumors surrounding Squid Sisters amiibo, though nothing has been confirmed at this time.

New Nendoroids based on the Red and Blue trainers from Pokemon is slated for July. One for Red had been previously released, but this latest model is based on his inclusion in FireRed and LeafGreen and more closely matches the art of the original game.

Both Nendoroids will be sold in a special bundle for 7,500 yen. Each comes with two face parts and two feet parts. Blue has six different arm parts while Red has five. Blue beats out Red yet again. Mew is also included, and you can change around his parts as well. Other accessories like Pokeballs and a backpack are also in the package.

These Nendoroids are due out on July 9. Reservations open on July 9. Product will be limited, as they’ll only be available at Japanese Pokemon Centers and Amazon Japan.

A new Twilight Princess HD tweet has been posted by the Japanese Zelda Twitter page. This time, Malo provides some information and observations about the Wolf Link amiibo.

Here’s our translation:

“…It’s Malo. It’s the amiibo brought by the bearded pops (Aonuma). It’s rare [to see] an amiibo that’s jutting out from its pedestal… The pedestal also has a Triforce mark drawn on it… Speaking of which that pops comes to my store quite often… Hey you’re not busy, are you? Go back to your work.”
