The Sonic Stadium has come across several unused Sonic Boom logos. Some have the text “Dudes vs. Evil” – might that have been part of the title at one point?
You can find the rest of the unused logos below. They all come from senior designer Henry Grey, who posted them on Cargo Collective.
Splatoon’s latest North American Splatfest is now live. In this event, the theme is past vs. future.
The latest Splatfest will run for a full day per usual. After it ends, we’ll have the results on the site soon after.
Splatoon’s tenth North American Splatfest is beginning in less than an hour. In Japan, their latest Splatfest will take place next weekend.
The tenth Japanese Splatfest asks players if they’d prefer a perfect body or a perfect mind. It’ll start at 12 PM on January 23, running for a full day.
Update: Creator Jordan Schuetz says Bigley’s Revenge is only being removed temporarily. It’ll be back, and with a “T” rating from the ESRB. An update might happen as well.
ESRB has a form where rate what content is in your game. I marked: Violence "Mostly fantastical setting" & "Stylized depiction".

ESRB came back today and literally marked the same boxes, however they determined for whatever reason that it should be rated Teen.

For everyone wondering, that's why the game is off the eShop. I can resubmit the game if I wish to with the new rating.

Bigley's Revenge is now rated Teen by ESRB.

Bigley's Revenge can't be listed on the eShop again until I submit a new ROM to Nintendo. Maybe I'll make some improvements to the game also

No one would have to repurchase Bigley's Revenge. They would receive an update.

Indie game Bigley’s Revenge may have been removed from the Wii U eShop. It’s nowhere to be found in the store, and searching for the game returns no results. The same goes for the Miiverse community.
This wouldn’t be the first time that a Wii U eShop from Ninja Pig Studios has been removed. Meme Run suffered a similar fate over a copyright issue. Bigley’s Revenge also features several memes, so it’s possible that’s come into play here as well. We won’t have a clear answer until Ninja Pig Studios provides an official update.
Several new games out came out this week on the Wii U and 3DS eShops. If you’re interested in checking out what’s new in screenshot form, take a peak at the gallery below.
This week’s episode of Nintendo Minute has gone live. In today’s episode, Kit and Krysta (along with some guests) try out some of the latest Smash Bros. DLC. Check out the full video below.
The Play Nintendo YouTube account is back with another off-beat video, this time for Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon. It attempts to show fans what happens in town while you’re adventuring in dungeons, and features a peek into the life of Carracosta, Better known as Pops. You can view the video below.
By pre-ordering The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, consumers will receive a special bonus. Nintendo is including a sound selecting CD with reservations. GameStop posted a photo of the pre-order bonus, which we have above.
Nintendo and GameStop are actually calling this an “exclusive”. But as far as I’m aware, this should be available at multiple stores. Nintendo said in its original announcement: “The game’s iconic soundtrack will be offered as a bonus for fans who pre-order the game from select retailers.” So… I’m not quite sure why GameStop has this labeled as an exclusive. Maybe something has changed. If you really want the CD and live in North America, you should maybe go ahead and reserve the title at GameStop just to be safe.
Nintendo removing courses from Super Mario Maker isn’t anything new, as this has been taking place since launch. However, while it’d make sense for something like a level that uses glitches to be taken down, users are being frustrated by their uploads leaving the online servers simply due to unpopularity. Making matters worse, some are told that their courses are banned – even after applying extensive changes – and cannot be re-submitted.
Perhaps the biggest issue here is the lack of communication. In some cases, players simply have no idea why their course was removed. That can definitely lead to some understandable disappointment!
