Nintendo released official videos for Super Mario RPG and River City Ransom on the Japanese Wii U Virtual Console. Watch them below.

Banjo-Kazooie originally featured a very different partner. As revealed by former Rare staffer Gregg Mayles, Dinger the Dog was planned as Banjo’s partner during the game’s early days.

Steve Mayles, who was also working at Rare during Banjo-Kazooie’s development, mentioned that Dinger’s origins go back to the SNES. For those who are unaware, the studio was creating “Project Dream” for the SNES before it eventually became Banjo-Kazooie on the N64.

Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight launched today in North America. Atlus shipped the title to stores, and also brought it to the 3DS eShop. In case you’re wondering, the digital version requires 7,124 blocks of free space on an SD card.

During the third quarter of 2015, Disney’s interactive division took a bit of a sales dip. This division, which is responsible for games and game-like toys, dropped $58 million for a total of $208 million. Disney attributed the loss to the slowdown of Disney Infinity sales.

Now, this isn’t actually unexpected. Disney Infinity 2.0 launched last September, so it’s only natural that sales would decline. Things will likely pick up again once Disney Infinity 3.0 arrives.
