Capcom has sent out a few more screenshots from Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Airou Village DX. Find them in the gallery below.

Update: Bumped to the top. It’s now confirmed that both of these games are due out tomorrow. Golden Sun’s page is here and Onimusha’s listing is here.


If ratings from the ESRB are anything to go by, two new Virtual Console games will be added to the North American Wii U eShop tomorrow. It’s currently looking like we’ll be getting Golden Sun: The Lost Age and Onimusha Tactics based on the classification listings. We should be able to obtain confirmation soon!

Capcom published two more weapon videos for Monster Hunter X today. View trailers for the Insect Glaive and Light Bowgun below.

Footage from the English build of Photos with Animal Crossing has been uploaded to YouTube. Take a look at the video below.

Much of the focus on Splatoon tonight surrounds the big new update, but a couple of weapons have been added as well. The Slosher and Heavy Splating are both now available.

Here’s an overview of the Slosher:

This might look like an ordinary bucket, but it’s actually a weapons-grade bucket! Hurl ink straight ahead over an impressive range, and adjust your angles to hit opponents above you or behind walls. The Slosher comes with Burst Bombs and the special is a hot pastrami on rye! Er, wait. Sorry. I mean Inkstrike. Got a little excited about today’s lunch delivery.

And the Heavy Splatling:

This baby packs six barrels full of ink. Charge it up and let your enemies have it! Need some cover? Not a problem. Throw down your Splash Wall! This bad boy also comes with the Inkzooka Inkstrike (Sorry squidfriends, I am too excited to read properly) as a special weapon. It might just be the best weapon for squids that have watched too many 80?s action movies!

A bunch of Monster Hunter X footage was showcased during the latest episode of Capcom TV. You can watch it below. Additionally, at the 43-minute mark, there’s footage from Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Airou Village DX.


Today’s new Splatoon update adds a few new songs to the game. You can listen to each new track thanks to the Soundcloud embed below.

Be sure to read up on the patch notes for the finer points concerning today’s update.
