Nintendo added a short video to its YouTube channel today showing off Super Mario Maker’s presence at San Diego Comic-Con 2015. Check it out below.
Plenty of games came out on the North American Wii U eShop on Thursday, including Santa Factory. We’ve attached some footage of the game below.
A couple of upcoming Nintendo bundles are available for pre-order on Toys “R” Us’ website. You can grab the Yoshi’s Woolly World one here and Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival one here.
The Yoshi’s Woolly World bundle features the green Yoshi amiibo. The Animal Crossing package comes with a couple of figures and amiibo cards.
Nintendo of America has finally shared an update regarding Devil’s Third in North America, though the message was brief.
On the NOA Twitter account, the company acknowledged fan interest in the title. Nintendo also said that they’ll be sharing more news soon, and “are excited to bring the game to Wii U”. That comment may suggest that Nintendo is still handling publishing duties in North America.
Here’s the official message:
We know you are eager to hear more about Devil’s Third. We are excited to bring the game to Wii U and will have more to share soon.

I’m honestly surprised that Nintendo even commented on the situation at all. We’ll have to see how everything plays out!
