A new trailer for Gunslugs has been published ahead of its launch on the 3DS eShop on Thursday. Check it out below.
Yesterday, we reported that Nintendo would show up twice during Gamespot’s E3 live coverage – in their schedule, it said that they were going to show off a “new Nintendo game”. Well, it turns out that this new Nintendo game is indeed the new Legend of Zelda for Wii U, and now a newly announced game.
The schedule now lists “The Legend of Zelda Wii U Part One” for Tuesday; Wednesday still has “new Nintendo game” as of right now, but it’s a pretty safe bet that this will be part two of Zelda.

Warner Bros. Interactive just published a new trailer for LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens at E3. Check it out below:
The game will be released on June 28th on Wii U.
Pokken Tournament will be undergoing some maintenance tonight, from the following times:
PST: June 14th from 5:50 PM to 7:30 PM
EST: June 14th from 8:50 PM to 10:30 PM
UK: June 15th from 1:50 AM to 3:30 AM
Europe: June 15th from 2:50 AM to 4:30 AM
Japan: June 15th from 9:50 AM to 11:30 AM
It’s highly possible that this maintenance will either patch the game to the previously mentioned Version 1.3, or that it will at least be in preparation.
While E3 might be about bringing the news this week, Pokémon Shuffle is about bringing the repeats. First up is a fight for some Gardevoirite. As with other Mega-evolution stages, this is a competitive stage that lasts until June 21st, where only the best players will earn the desired rewards. To earn the Gardevoirite, you’ll have to be one of the top 22,000 players in North America, 15,000 in Europe, or top 60,000 in Japan. Additional bonuses will be given to people who rank even higher, with the top 3,600 in North America, 2,400 in Europe, and 10,000 in Japan earning a Mega Speedup, and the top 1,100 in North America, 800 in Europe and top 3,000 in Japan also winning a Raise Max Level. The top 30,000 in North America, 20,000 in Europe and 80,000 in Japan will get an Attack Power, and all other players will get a Disruption Delay. Players who qualify but already have the Gardevoirite will get a Level Up.
Additionally, stages for Kabutops, Omastar, and Dialga are all returning until June 28th.
Activision has shared some pure b-roll gameplay of Crash Bandicoot in Skylanders Imaginators. Check it out below.
As for the backstory of Crash in Skylanders Imaginators, here’s the lowdown:
In Skylanders Imaginators, a wormhole has opened in Skylands and the great Aku Aku appears! He comes to announce the once in two decades Synchronization Celebration. It is the time when all of the worlds align perfectly. They are having a huge celebration event in the Wumpa Islands and want to invite the Skylanders. But with Kaos on a quest to take over Skylands using his army of Doomlanders, the Skylanders must focus on stopping his evil plans. Never one to shy away from danger, the legendary marsupial Crash Bandicoot travels through the wormhole to join the Skylanders in the ultimate battle against Kaos!
Lastly, here’s a look at the actual Crash Bandicoot toy:

Nintendo has been hosting a new Miitomo re-tweet event over the past week. Having reached 10,000 and 20,000 re-tweets respectively, “Link’s new hair wig” and “Link wig” were already confirmed as free gifts for the app. Nintendo also added in another goal recently at 40,000 re-tweets: a black 8-bit Link tee.
Nintendo has now announced that this latest target has been reached. That means, starting tomorrow, users will be able to get their hands on a total of three gifts in Miitomo.
During Sony’s E3 2016 media briefing tonight, it was announced that Crash Bandicoot will be joining Skylanders Imaginators. But as it turns out, the character isn’t exclusive to PlayStation.
If you obtain the figure, you’ll be able to play as Crash in the Wii U version of the game. Right now there are only plans to offer it in the PlayStation 4 Starter Pack version, but you’ll probably be seeing the figure pop up on eBay. Activision will likely give Crash a standalone release at some point in the future as well.
Here’s a trailer:
And some footage:
Axiom Verge will finally be launching on Wii U this summer. There will be some GamePad integration, which creator Tom Happ touched on while speaking with Nintendo Life.
Happ told the site:
It was kind of a no-brainer with this sort of game – exploration and item acquisition are the main things you want the player to be focused on. I think anyone who’s ever played a “metroidvania” has felt some frustration at trying to reconcile the tiny minimap with what they’re seeing on the big map in the menu, having to always switch back and forth – this ameliorates that a lot, plus in Axiom Verge’s case, the huge amount of weapons you normally have to scroll through in an item wheel. There’d probably be an uprising if I used that secondary screen for anything else.
Nami Tentou Mushi made it known last year that PSIBO is planned for the Wii U eShop. The indie developer published a new trailer for the game today – see below.
PSIBO is “coming soon” to the Wii U eShop in North America and Europe.
