Update: Captain Falcon is already gone, but Diddy Kong is still in stock!
Two amiibo are in stock over on GameStop’s website once again. Captain Falcon and Diddy Kong can both be purchased for $12.99 a piece. There’s no telling if/when these two amiibo will sell out again, so get those orders in while you can!
Youkai Watch’s success doesn’t stop at gaming and television. The series is making a splash in theaters, too.
Youkai Watch’s new movie earned $13.6 million (?1.6 billion) at the Japanese box office over a two day period this past weekend. The next closest film was Big Hero 6, which pulled in $5.4 million (?642 million). Despite being shown on only 408 screens, Youkai Watch doubled up on Disney’s movie (shown at 540 locations).
Another Splatoon screenshot has landed on the game’s official Tumblr page. View the new image above, and check out an explanation of the shot below.
Check it out! One of our lab assistants just texted over this fascinating new image. It looks like the interior of a giant warehouse, and the location of some intense turf-war battles. I sure hope the squids get permission before going in here and clean up after themselves when they’re done…
Nintendo Life has gone ahead with a new interview with Jools Watsham from Renegade Kid. Watsham talked about Moon Chronicles (sales and status of future episodes), the Cult County Kickstarter, and what’s planned for 2015.
You can find these excerpts below. Check out the full discussion here.
In the latest issue of Famitsu, a slew of Japanese developers spoke about their ambitions as we head into 2015. We’ve rounded up some of the responses below. Not all are confirmed to be Nintendo-related, but we’re including the ones that may have some relation to the company.
Tomonobu Itagaki (Valhalla Game Studios) – Itagaki alludes to 2015 being the year he sets off a big, brand new bomb, which is surely alluding to Devil’s Third.
Hiroyuki Kobayashi (Capcom) – In 2015, he has a number of titles both to be announced and to be released.
Tsuji Bonbon (Capcom) – The 11th year of the Monster Hunter series will be a new start.
Ichiro Hazama (Square Enix) – Working really hard on another game that’s proving arduous to make.
Kotaro Uchikoshi (Spike Chunsoft) – Has lots of things brewing that will be exploding onto the scene. Will be continuing along on some things and will have stuff to announce down the line.
Yuichiro Saito (Spike Chunsoft) – Has a few unannounced titles.
Makoto Osaki (Sega) – “We have unannounced titles in development.”
Masaaki Hoshino (Bandai Namco) – More information on Pokken is coming soon.
Hideki Kamiya (Platinum Games) – The Takarazuka opera should be hot in 2015.”(2015???????????)
Yusuke Hashimoto (Platinum Games) – New projects are underway.
Kenichiro Takaki (Marvelous) – Might have several non-Kaura original new game announcements.
Akihiro Hino (Level-5) – There are plans to start a new big project.
Jiro Ishii – I’ll be able to announce a number of titles in 2015.
