Girls Like Robots just launched in the Japanese eShop today along with a bunch of other titles you can find here. Check out some footage for the game below!
Nintendo is including a booklet with all physical copies of Super Mario Maker. In Japan, we’re hearing that the item will be sold directly by Nintendo online to anyone who bought the digital version. They’ll also have access to a free PDF version – as is the case in Europe.
Teyon has released a trailer for Zombie Defense, which is heading to the Japanese Wii U eShop next week. View it below.
We originally heard about Zombie Defense last December. The game was rated in Germany, and it now looks like it’s ready for launch on the eShop. Zombie Defense should be coming to the North American and European Wii U eShops eventually.
In the latest trailer for Super Mario Maker, the game’s Japanese packaging was unveiled. What you see above is the “box” it will come in. And inside is the Super Mario Maker disc (with its own boxart) and artbook.
It’s basically a throwback to the boxart for the original Super Mario Bros. on Famicom! Pretty neat stuff.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
