Update 2: Bumped to the top. Added in a couple more scans.
Update: Correction – Mimitsukiyu’s name is actually Mimikkyu.
A pair of new Pokemon have been revealed in this month’s issue of CoroCoro.
First up is Kiteruguma, a Normal/Fighting creature with Fluffy and Klutz abilities. We also have a look at the Ghost/Fairy Pokemon Mimitsukiyu. This one has the ability called Disguise.
CoroCoro says that those in Alola are scared of Kiteruguma to the point of having warning signs about it. Because of its strength, it can break anything in two. It likes to hug its trainers, though raising one puts your life in danger.
Meanwhile, Mimitsukiyu hates sunlight and prefers dark places. The cloth covering its body is rumored to be a strategy to avoid the sun. If someone tries to remove the cloth, it’s said they’ll become afflicted with an illness.
Courtesy of Polygon, we have another extended look at Monster Hunter Generations. The video below has 35 minutes of gameplay.
Nintendo Town has published a few more minutes of footage from the new Wii U eShop game Hot Rod Racer. View the video below.
Nyoki Nyoki: Tabidachi Hen, a new Japanese 3DS eShop game from Puyo Puyo creator Masamitsu Niitani and his company Compile Maru, made its playable debut at BitSummit last weekend. Inside Games posted a little bit of off-screen footage from the demo, which we have below.
Tumblestone is out now on the Wii U eShop, and the release is being celebrated with a new trailer. Check out a video showing the game’s features below.
Ninja Pizza Girl was last thought to be Wii U-bound in January. That obviously didn’t happen, but a Kickstarter update from Disparity Games indicates that the eShop version is coming very soon.
Development on the Wii U version is said to be “very, very, very close to done but it still needs two more days of work before it’s ready to send to Nintendo.” Ninja Pizza Girl is still at least a month out, though it won’t be too much longer now.
Here’s the full update from Disparity:
Hello WiiU people! Brace yourselves for FULL DISCLOSURE as we peek behind the curtain of game development. We have a working WiiU build. It’s great! It supports the pro controller, the wiimote (my favourite controller to play NPG on, it’s lovely and old-school and just feels great), the gamepad and it allows for easy swapping between the TV and gamepad screen. It’s very, very, very close to done but it still needs two more days of work before it’s ready to send to Nintendo. The first chance we have to work on it for two days is this Saturday so we hope to be sending Ninja Pizza Girl to the wizards at Nintendo on Sunday. It then has to be rigorously checked by Nintendo, approved, and much, much paperwork filled in. I think Pikachu has to personally sign off on everything, I’m not too sure what goes on there really. When that’s all done we’ll have an official release date and can finally fill your lives with warm, wonderful Ninja Pizza Girl goodness. We can’t say for sure how long this process will take but based on our experience with other platforms our best guess is about 30 days. Starting from Saturday we’ll give you updates for each step of this process so you can see exactly what’s happening and share the last trek of this very long road with us.
On Thursday, Nintendo will be kicking off a two-week sale for the classic Pokemon RPGs on the 3DS eShop. Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow will be reduced to €6.99, a 30 percent discount. The offer will be valid until July 28.
