Amazon Japan has posted the boxarts for Medabots 9. We’ve gone ahead and attached both above.
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes features over 30 costumes that can be accessed through normal play. But there’s one that is only obtained by teaming up with friends locally.
When playing local multiplayer (including Download Play), you’ll receive an item called the “proof of friendship”. You’ll get one “proof” per friend’s system. A currently unspecified amount is needed in order to obtain the special costume.
Speaking with Japanese website 4Gamer, Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and Tri Force Heroes director Hiromasa Shikata explained that the team thought they should make a reward for those people for play locally. Head past the break for our translation of the interview excerpt.
Just like Yo-kai Watch 2, Yo-kai Watch Busters is getting a third version in Japan called “Moon Rabbit Team”. The game will feature USApyon as the main Yo-kai. Owners of the older Yo-kai Watch Busters games should be eligible for some sort of free update.
Yo-kai Watch Busters launches in Japan this December for 3DS. There’s no other news yet about what else is new in the game, but you’ll bring you that information when it’s available.

Last month’s issue of GamesMaster contains an interview with well-known Nintendo developer Takashi Tezuka. There were a few interesting topics that we wanted to highlight.
First, here’s what Tezuka said when asked about why Mario resonates so well with people and the key to his longtime success:
“Personally, I think that even before people come to like Mario as a character, it’s the gameplay of Super Mario that really resonates with them. We created Super Mario Bros paying close attention to intuitive feelings – things that anyone in the world can relate to – which users feel through the gameplay; running is fun, jumping high is something you want to do, falling is scary and spikes hurt you if you touch them, etc.
I think it all started with how the gameplay resonated with players. From there it’s been how we’ve continued to make Mario games for so long, and all the work we have put into making sure that Mario is never used in an inappropriate way, that has allowed him to slowly become such a well-loved character.”
It was just last week that Rare shared brand new footage from the unreleased N64 game Twelve Tales: Conker 64. This is how Conker’s Bad Fur Day was originally imagined.
Following the recent footage, Rare has now posted a music track from the game. Give it a listen below.
