Wii U owners in Japan have been able to stream over ten thousand anime episodes through the Bandai Channel, which launched in August 2013. In just a matter of months though, the service will be ending.
The Bandai Channel will be taken down from the Wii U eShop on February 29. And on March 31, the actual service will shut down.
Amazon has posted the boxart for Assassination Classroom: Assassin Training Plan. You can check it out above.
Update 4: Bumped to the top. Added in trophies, possible Mii Fighter hat images, and music.
Update 3: Added in possible Mii Fighter hat/outfit.
Update 2: Added in a stage note. That might be it folks! And I personally see that as a good thing.
Update: Thus far, it’s looking like there are no new characters in the update. Cloud and the Midgar stage seem to be added with the patch. Possibly another stage as well.
Data miners are up to their usual tricks when it comes to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS. It appears that content from the latest patch has started to leak, which isn’t too surprising given that the new presentation is taking place tomorrow. We won’t be spoiling anything on the front page or our social media accounts, but you can keep track of updates as they happen after the break.
While the Shovel Knight amiibo is already out in most European territories, it won’t be until January that fans in North American can purchase the figure. An employee speaking on Reddit gives us an idea about what to expect from Target’s stock.
In stores, there will be an average of 10 Shovel Knight units. However, there could be as few as 2 on the low side, and 12-16 on the high side. It’s also expected that about 4,000 amiibo will be available online as well.
It’s not the biggest image, but we do have a look at the Japanese boxart for Pokken Tournament. Check it out above.
Four new support Pokemon have been revealed for Pokken Tournament. Togekiss, Rotom, Dragonite, and Victini are the new additions. At the moment, specifics about each are unknown.

Teyon have just published a trailer for their upcoming 3DS game Ocean Runner. The game will be released via the eShop on December 24th in Europe and on January 7th in North America.
Yo-kai Sangokushi is the latest Yo-kai Watch game, and it’s another spin-off / crossover title. Announced earlier this year, Level-5 revealed today that the crossover between Yo-kai Watch and Romance of the Three Kingdoms will be released for Nintendo 3DS in Japan in 2016.
All copies of the game will come with “Komasan Sun Ce” Military Commander Legendary Medal, while first-print copies will also include a “Komasan Sun Ce” figure strap.
Several new special stages have come to Pokemon Shuffle. First of all, a special Mewtwo commemorative stage has been added to the game. Previously, Mewtwo was only available in an Expert stage that required you to beat 150 regular stages with an S rank. In this special stage, which will be available until January 19th, items cost nothing, so Mewtwo shouldn’t be too hard to catch.
Next, Regigigas will be available until December 28th. You will have an easier time catching this Pokemon if you have Regirock, Registeel and Regice in your team.
Speaking of which, all three of those are making a return to the game. Regirock will be available until December 18th. It will be followed by Registeel and then Regice.
Finally, the Mega Garchomp competition makes a return. If you haven’t gotten a Garchompite the first time around, now’s your chance. The top 12,000 players in Europe, 18,000 in North America and 50,000 in Japan will receive a Garchompite. If you make it to the top 1,200 in Europe, 1,800 in North America or 5,000 in Japan, you will also receive a Mega Speedup. The top 20,000 in Europe, 30,000 in North America and 50,000 in Japan will receive an Attack Power Up. Everyone else who participates will receive a Disruption Delay. If you already have a Garchompite and place in the top spots, you will receive a Jewel instead.
