Update: Maintenance has now ended. In North America, players will need to download an updated patch to play online. This should presumably fix issues with online worldwide play.
Pokken Tournament is affected by emergency maintenance at the moment. The game’s network services went down a few hours ago, and have not returned since. We’ll update this post when everything is back up and running.
EnjoyUp Games and Pixel Bones Studio are partnering on a new game for the Wii U eShop. The two companies will be bringing us Run Run and Die, “an atypical, mad-capped runner game in which you must escape from a hell-like complex through 24 levels filled with spikes, bombs, robots and impossible jumps.”
Here’s an overview:
You are a penguin that has woken up in a dark laboratory. How did you get there? Who is behind all of this? You only remember one thing… Red is death… but don’t worry, dying is fun.
Are you ready to die again and again… and again in Run Run and Die?
Features:
– Very easy controls. Simply press a button or use the touch screen.
– 24 wicked levels filled with traps that will put your skills to the test.
– Some levels are a tribute to old gaming consoles.
– Comic book-style illustrations will tell the story between levels.
You’ll find some screenshots of Run Run and Die in the gallery below.

Alongside today’s new Splatoon update, several weapons were added to the game in the form of Sheldon’s Picks Vol. 1. You can take a look at the weapons below.
Nintendo updated the Japanese Kirby: Planet Robobot site today with some new information. We have details about a copy ability and Robobot Armor modes.
First, Nintendo has shown the Esper (update: should be ESP in the English version) copy ability. With psychic powers, Kirby can make himself disappear, or attack with electric energy. There will be over 25 copy abilities in the game, including new and old ones.
Here’s some information about new Robobot Armor modes (over 10 in total):
– Spark Mode: Launch a single piercing attack with shockwaves
– Jet Mode: Transform into a jet fighter, fly in the sky and instantly lock-on to enemies
– Cutter Mode: Slice through enemies with blades that look like giant sawteeth
– Bomb Mode: Attack continuously by releasing the Walker Nitros
– Wheel Mode: Thrust forward like a racer with the Full Turbo Accel
And here’s a look at today’s new content:
Kirby: Planet Robobot also features 200 kinds of stickers that can be placed on the robot for customization. You can find these scattered about the various levels.
Splatoon’s latest version has gone live. Nintendo has published version 2.7.0 on its servers, and it’s now available for download. Note that 764MB is needed for the download.
To recap, here are the patch notes in full:
New weapons
- Eight new weapons added, available in the weapon shop Ammo Knights
- Please note: the new weapons will appear in the shop following the release of the software update.
The latest episode of Nintendo’s Japanese show Nyannyan Neko Mario Time has now gone live. We’ve included it below.
Pokken Tournament version 1.2 is currently making it impossible for those in North America to play with others outside of the region. These users are not getting matched is because Shadow Mewtwo’s light pillar in field phase operates differently compared to the rest of the world. Since there are two versions of Shadow Mewtwo, the North American servers are unable to handle the conflicting data.
We’ll keep tabs on the situation. If the situation is fixed, we’ll be sure to let you know.
