Green Man Gaming and Nintendo UK have teamed up to begin selling digital Wii U and 3DS titles. The initial lineup includes retail titles like Super Mario Maker and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D, but also Virtual Console games such as The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. This news is notable since Green Man Gaming is the global number two digital games retailer.
If you’re in the UK, you can find all of the offerings here. There’s also a brief announcement featuring Charles Martinet below.
Nintendo has published its third indie interview coming from PAX Prime 2015. In the latest one, the company’s Damon Baker talks with Graphite Lab about Hive Jump. Check it out below.
Amazon has opened up pre-orders for the Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash amiibo bundle. Get yours here.
The game will be available starting on October 9.
Car Battler Joe came out on the North American Wii U Virtual Console yesterday. For some footage of the game, watch the video below.

Amazon Germany has started taking pre-orders for the European Xenoblade Chronicles X Limited Edition. You can reserve it here.
I wouldn’t expect this to stay in stock forever, so get an order in while you can!
Nintendo will be releasing the first set of Animal Crossing amiibo cards in North America next week. If one GameStop store is anything to go by, they should be pretty well stocked.
The image above shows the unit amount for the cards at one GameStop location. This is a small store, so people are counting on the amiibo seeing similar numbers (if not higher) at other outlets.
Xenoblade Chronicles X has received its second update in Japan. Given the small increment in the version change (1.0.2), it should come as no surprise that there isn’t a whole lot to the patch.
The new update simply addresses a single glitch within the game. Monolith Soft has fixed things so that players won’t encounter issues obtaining a single Union Point at a time during offline play. That’s all there is to it!
Photos are now available showing the Japanese Club Nintendo 2016 Calendar. You’ll find the full set below.
The Nintendo UK store is now taking pre-orders for The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes. Get yours here. With your order, you’ll also get a T-shirt (pictured above).
