Back in June, a European boxart image popped up, suggesting that Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival would support online play. This sadly appears to be untrue.
Having just played Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival and spoken with a representative at a press event, GameXplain reports that there is no online multiplayer of any sort. Fans probably won’t be too pleased with that news!
A listing on the eShop indicated that Octodad: Dadliest Catch would be out on the European Wii U eShop next Thursday. Young Horses has now officially confirmed the news, and we also know that the North American release is set for the same day.
Those who purchase Octodad: Dadliest Catch before November 5 can receive a 20 percent discount. The game will be sold for $11.24 / €11.19 / £9.59 during this period.

During a lecture at the Unreal Fest 2015 Yokohama Event, Keiji Inafune spoke a bit about Mighty No. 9. Japanese website Inside-Games relayed some of what was shared.
Inafune promised that Mighty No. 9 won’t suffer another delay. One of the big reasons why it was pushed back is because of the high number of platforms involved.
Inafune wouldn’t say that Mighty No. 9 is a complete success, as the game hasn’t been released yet. He feels that it needs to sell a lot of copies and many users playing it. Assuming Mighty No. 9 is successful though, there will be a sequel
