Minecraft: Wii U Edition was updated with the new Super Mario Mash-Up Pack this week. Enthusiastic gamers have since started to upload clips to YouTube, but some have encountered issues with copyright strikes.
Developer 4J Studios took to Twitter earlier today and provided an update on the situation. It turns out that these strikes aren’t supposed to happen, and Nintendo even assured the team that it wouldn’t be a problem. They’re now following up with Nintendo on things.
Here’s the tweet straight from 4J:
We're hearing reports of copyright strikes on Super Mario Mash-Up videos. We were assured this wouldn't happen. Following up with Nintendo.

Nintendo has prepared a new overview trailer for Kirby: Planet Robobot, which is slated for next month. View it below.
Fire Emblem Fates is finally being released in Europe tomorrow. As you no doubt know by now, the game is being released in two version – Birthright and Conquest, and unless you were lucky enough to get your hands on the special edition or you’re playing the digital version, you need to choose beforehand which family you’ll be siding with. Nintendo UK has published the video below to help you make that decision:
Atlus has provided more info on Etrian Odyssey V, as well as a number of screenshots. Many of these details, such as character customization, were covered previously, but the update did provide screenshots, as well as details on two new locations.
The first of these is Jenetta’s Inn. Like any good RPG inn, you can heal the party and save your game there, as well as deposit and withdraw items. Cows and chickens that are captured in dungeons are also kept there, and the innkeeper, Jenetta, will look after them and provide you with eggs, milk, and more ingrediants.
The second location is The Witch’s Twilight Pavilion, run by a woman named Melina. Here, you can take on quests for rewards, as well as get information from other adventurers.
Check out the screenshots below.
We found out earlier this week that a new Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS update is on the way. The patch will bring both games up to version 1.1.6.
It’s not out yet, but the files have already popped up on Nintendo’s servers. Random Talking Bush has been going through the contents and seems to have found that Bayonetta is the only changed character. Just two main files are modified: “param/fighter_param_vl_bayonetta.bin” and “fighter/bayonetta/script/animcmd/game.bin”.
In any case, we’ll let you know when the 1.1.6 patch is available for Smash Bros.
Hyrule Warriors Legends is celebrating the game’s first DLC pack with a SpotPass distribution. If you have the Internet functionality enabled, you should be receiving 500,000 Rupees, 10 of Delicious Weird Egg, and 10 of Delicious Odd Mushroom.
The SpotPass message mentions that the Master Wind Waker Pack is now available, but it doesn’t actually seem to be quite yet. Still, the DLC should be launching tomorrow.
A bunch of footage from My Hero Academia: Battle for All has emerged thanks to ShonenGameZ. Find several videos attached below.
