Update: Character video added below.
Nintendo’s upcoming collaboration with ATLUS brings the awesome Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei crossover we’ve all been waiting for. As we get closer to the Japanese release, we’ll be seeing more and more of the game, and Nintendo has just released a brand new trailer showing off a bit of the story for the upcoming title. The trailer also features its “debut single” which will ostensibly be released sometime in the future to promote the game even further. Check out the brand new trailer below!
The Animal Crossing amiibo cards work with the recently-released Happy Home Designer, and some can even be scanned in with Super Mario Maker. Also, they’ll be compatible with Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival. That won’t be the end of their use apparently.
In an info card included with Happy Home Designer, Nintendo says that additional compatible games will be announced in the future. We’re not sure what’s planned, but it’s always nice to see amiibo extended to more titles.
Oh, and in case you needed a reminder, Nintendo reconfirms that a total of four Animal Crossing amiibo card series are planned. Each series is comprised of 100 cards.
Yesterday, Pocky & Rocky with Becky was confirmed as one of this week’s European Wii U Virtual Console titles. In North America, the game should also be launching on Thursday. Natsume told one fan on Twitter today:
@SeafoamGaming Yes 🙂

A new glitch has been found in Super Mario Maker that makes it possible to create invisible platforms. As spotted by GameXplain, the process involves using the cloud platform, the invisible block, and a track piece that exists temporarily. The full process of making invisible platforms is in the video below.
