Update: Apologies for the slight delay in announcing our winner. A family member of mine has been in the hospital over the past few days, so to say things have been crazy here lately would be an understatement.
With that out of the way, let’s announce our winner. Congratulations to Kyoko! Your code will be sent out soon.
With Adventures of Pip’s North American launch slated for Thursday, we’re celebrating with a quick giveaway. We have one code to provide to a lucky winner (thanks Max Criden!).
In the title, Pip undergoes crucial transformations and evolutions. Excluding Pokemon (since that’d be too easy!), we want to read about your favorite physical transformation that a character goes through in a game. Just leave a comment below with your thoughts.
Our giveaway will run through Thursday evening. Note that the code can only be redeemed on a North American Wii U console.
By the way, in case you missed it, Dennis played through nearly an hour of Adventures of Pip over the weekend. You can watch our live stream archive below.
Update (6/6): Bumped to the top. A listing for the counterfeit amiibo has been found on Ali Express. There are also new photos below.
A number of counterfeit amiibo are starting to appear online. These include figures for Mario, Link, Pikachu, and Samus. Amiibo News additionally reports that the ones pictured above are even showing up in marketplaces in Brazil. Be careful if you plan on buying an amiibo that isn’t from a reputable retailer!
Back when Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker launched in Japan, Nintendo offered a special bundle containing the Toad amiibo. It now looks like this package is bound for Europe as well. Amazon UK and Germany both list the bundle, as does GAME Spain. We’ll see if Nintendo has anything official to announce in the near future.
A few years ago, it seemed like The Binding of Isaac would never grace a Nintendo system. That’s because Nintendo seemed to find some of the game’s content questionable – specifically the religious aspects.
You may be interested to hear that The Binding of Isaac’s initial rejection didn’t come from Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. Speaking with Nintendo Force, creator Edmund McMillen revealed that Reggie “backed” the game in 2012, though former Nintendo indie head Dan Adelman truly pushed for it to happen.
The Binding of Isaac is finally coming to Nintendo platforms this summer. It’ll be on both Wii U and New 3DS via the eShop.
Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is out now on the North American 3DS eShop. Check out the launch trailer below.
