Thus far, we’ve seen Bravely Default and Bravely Second. There’s no question that the series will continue, and producer Tomoya Asano is already thinking about a third entry.
Speaking with Famitsu this week, Asano said:
“I don’t know what to say about that at this time [with Bravely Second releasing soon] but I already have some ideas for Bravely Third in my head. If Bravely Second sells well, I plan on presenting plans for it right away. Thank you for your continued support.”
Update 2: Pre-orders now open.
Update: European bundle announced.

Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures finally came to Wii U earlier this month after a considerably long wait. The 3DS version hasn’t launched yet, but that should be changing soon.
FreakZone’s Sam Beddoes has confirmed that Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is finished and is currently going through the approval process.
He said:
The 3DS version has stereoscopic 3D, as well as some dual screen features, similar to the GamePad features on the Wii U. It’s all done and going through Nintendo’s approval process.
Nintendo will be restocking three amiibo in Japan next month. According to a tweet posted on the company’s Japanese Twitter account, Villager, Captain Falcon, and Little Mac will be available once again in early May. Hopefully we’ll soon begin seeing some amiibo restocks in the west as well!
