Last month, news leaked about Nintendo-themed items in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. In December, for Japan at least, these will finally be available.
Those with copies of Happy Home Designer can receive Nintendo consoles like Wii U and New 3DS, plus various store displays starting on December 1. The different items are pictured above. We should eventually be getting this content in the west as well, but a release date hasn’t been announced just yet.
Believe it or not, there are still new collaborations being announced for Monster Hunter X.
The first one is based on Ushio and Tora, which net players a special “Beast Spear” Insect Glaive. Tora becomes your Kinsect and your hair grows very long like Ushio’s when the spear is equipped. This will be available on January 27 through a quest.
Also planned for Monster Hunter X is a collaboration for Magi. It’ll provide players with a pair of weapons when they finish a quest. Capcom will begin the event in March.
Take a look at the latest Monster Hunter X footage below.
The Adventures of Bayou Billy is another game coming to the European Wii U Virtual Console on Thursday. Take a look at the official trailer below.

Koei Tecmo have published Ganondorf’s Hyrule Warriors Legends trailer, which features him using his new Trident weapon. Check it out below:
Nintendo originally announced near the system’s launch that you would eventually be able to buy the Wii U Gamepad separately and use two of them with the system. Well, support for more than one Gamepad at the time still hasn’t happened and probably will never happen, but you can in fact now buy a new Gamepad directly from Nintendo of Japan’s online store.
The standalone Gamepad costs 13,824 yen. If your old Gamepad broke and your warranty expired and you don’t want to pay for repairs, buying a new one is now an option. Note, however, that the Gamepad itself is region-locked, so it won’t work with your PAL or NTSC Wii U.
