Nintendo Everything

Square Enix sent out its regular weekly update for Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 today. Find the game’s latest screenshots below.

Nintendo has formed a partnership with Napster to bring the music streaming service to Wii U. Starting tomorrow, console owners in Europe can download the app for free. Those with a Napster Unlimited subscription can access the service in full. If you’re not a member, a 30-day trial can be obtained at the Napster website.

On the GamePad, users can “easily search for a specific track, album or artist as well as browse by genre, top albums, tracks and artists, ensuring music enthusiasts can discover and play the latest releases.” The controller “can also be used to access hundreds of curated radio stations by genre, artist, theme or mood, as well as Napster Playlists created by Napster’s group of resident music experts.” The app can store a library of favorite tracks and personal playlists, created in the Napster app for smartphones/tablets or through the Napster web service.

Highlighted games include Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3, Food Wars 3DS, Genei Ibun Roku #FE, Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games 3DS, Monster Strike, My Hero Academia, Pokken Tournament, and Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros.
