Everything we’ve been hearing about the Greninja amiibo thus far has indicated that the figure will be exclusive to Toys “R” Us. That would certainly make sense given that Lucario was also exclusive to the retailer. When we receive an official confirmation, we’ll be sure to let you know.

During yesterdays Nintendo Direct presentation we saw a little taste of the latest in the Fire Emblem series in its and now we have a little more information about the two separate versions of the game. The official Japanese website has updated with new information on both version; Fire Emblem If: Black Kingdom and Fire Emblem If: White Kingdom.
Here are some of the details of the differences from each version:
Black Kingdom:
– more difficult version
– more strategizing
– limited experience points and money
White Kingdom:
– easier of the two
– alternate ways of acquiring experience points and money
– more freedom as character grows
There is one more large difference between the two games, the storyline will stay the same until Chapter 6 and then the story will change based on the version you purchased:
Physical version (5,076 yen): Locked into the path of version you purchased. However, you can buy the other story path at a discount (2,000 yen) as DLC.
Digital version (5,076 yen yen): After chapter 6 you will be asked to choose which path you want. Once you’ve chosen a path, the other story path will be permanently locked away until you purchase it as DLC (2,000 yen).
There will also be a Fire Emblem If Special Edition which will include both versions of the game as well as a third version of the game, limited edition art book, and TCG card. This version will set you back 9250 yen.
Now that April Fools’ Day has passed, we can rest easy when it comes to yesterday’s announcement of The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth for Wii U and 3DS. It’s really happening. Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez made a point to stress this on his Twitter account a few hours ago.
There is just one important thing that needs to be mentioned: on 3DS, The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is planned for New 3DS rather than the original 3DS systems. We also know that Nicalis plans to bring the game to Europe.
Head on below for a collection of Nicalis’ tweets, which also feature a few short clips from The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth.
