Nintendo Everything

Nintendo updated Splatoon with a new map today. As of now, players can begin accessing the “Kelp Dome”.

This is just one of several updates that have arrived in Splatoon since launch. Nintendo has added Ranked Battles, Inkbrush and N-Zap ’85 weapons, and the Port Mackerel map.

Check out some footage from the Kelp Dome below.

One of the most recent videos for The Great Ace Attorney had series creator Shu Takumi talking about the heroine, Susato Mikotoba. Details translated from the video are posted below (thanks Siliconera).

– Susato travels alongside Ryunosuke in his voyage to the United Kingdom
– Susato’s name was made from letters that Takumi felt were pretty, as he aligned them together
– She meets the requirements of being what’s called a “legal affairs girl”
– This is essentially a position that helps out attorneys
– Susato likes mystery novels, including stories with Sherlock Holmes
– She’s an informative lady since she’s big on reading
– Susato will often help out with useful information, and will occasionally say some strange but interesting quotes
– She also has a bit of a sweet tooth
– Susato’s design was made with a graceful Japanese woman as the main focus
– Seemed fitting to have her in a kimono given the time period
– Takumi had different kinds of ideas such as make her look like this, and have her holding this or that
– In the end, he decided that her looks would be best kept simple
– At times, she may seem more like an adult compared to Ryunosuke, but that is precisely what makes the two work well together as characters

Update: Bumped to the top. Added in another video comparison.

Nintendo World Report put together a new video comparing the 3DS and Wii U versions of Hyrule Warriors. Check it out below.

Last night, Nintendo revealed that Devil’s Third is heading to Japan on August 4. That was followed by a release date announcement of August 28 for Europe. North America is now the only piece of the puzzle that’s missing.

If GameFly is to be believed, Devil’s Third is also coming to North America on August 28. We’ll need an confirmation from Nintendo before we can take this out of rumor territory, but the one thing I can say is that this retailer has proven accurate in the past. In any case, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see official news during E3 next week.
