Yesterday we learned that Animal Crossing amiibo cards would cost $6 per pack (6 cards in each) here in the United States. In the UK, we now know that packs will be £3.49.

The Nintendo UK store now has its listing up for the Animal Crossing amiibo cards here. Each pack contains three cards, and one of these will always be a special one.

There are also now various bundles for Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer to choose from on the Nintendo UK store. You can find all of the offerings here.

Best Buy has a couple of early Wii U games on sale. ZombiU and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge are both $7 each. This is a clearance sale, so the discount will likely remain until stock runs out.

The name Chris Pranger should ring a bell if you’ve kept an eye on the site over the past few weeks. Pranger recently appeared on a Part-Time Gamer podcast to talk about working at Nintendo Treehouse and a number of other topics.

Unfortunately, Pranger has stated on his Twitter account that he was fired from Nintendo. We don’t know about the specifics, but he likely said something he wasn’t supposed to during the podcast – perhaps a broken NDA.


You never like to hear about someone losing their job. I wish Pranger the best of luck in the future, and hopefully he’ll land somewhere new soon!

With Wind-up Knight 2 releasing on the North American Wii U eShop today, a launch trailer is now available. Watch the video below.

A couple of videos are now available for Splatoon’s new Rainmaker mode.

First, here’s some footage from GameSpot:

And an official video from the Squid Research Lab:

Speaking of the Squid Research Lab, here’s an official overview of Rainmaker:

Introducing…. Rainmaker! In Rainmaker, both teams compete to snag the, uhhh, Rainmaker. Once you’ve got it, the goal is to carry it into the other team’s base!

How’s it work, you ask? As soon as the battle begins, grab onto that Rainmaker! It’s guarded by a shield, though, so you’ll need to bust it out first. Once you snag it, head for the other team’s base. And be quick about it!

If you run out of time or get splatted, the Rainmaker will be dropped and its shield will also reactivate. The Rainmaker is crazy heavy, so you can’t Super Jump while carrying it. Hopefully your teammates will watch your back!

But don’t think the Rainmaker is just some shiny object – it can shoot ink like an Inkzooka. You can even hold to charge the Rainmaker up for an extra-powerful shot! The closer you get to the enemy base while holding the Rainmaker, the lower your goal distance will drop. If you retreat too far while holding the Rainmaker, it’ll explode sooner! If the battle ends without anyone carrying the Rainmaker to the goal, the team with the lowest goal distance will win.
