The Xenoblade Chronicles New 3DS cover plate isn’t just for Japan. Via Nintendo’s Twitter account, it’s been confirmed that it will be available in Europe as well. The cover plate will be available on April 2 – just in time for Xenoblade Chronicles 3D’s launch.

Nintendo’s tweet is as follows:

The iconic mobile sports game heads to console for the first time!
Flick Golf, the world’s most addictive handheld golf game, is coming to Nintendo 3DS in time for the 2015 Masters Tournament, before April 9 2015.
Get ready to experience Full Fat’s award-winning touch controls, enjoyed by millions in the original #1 App Store game, for the first time on console!
Flick, spin and curve your shots to sink the perfect hole-in-one. Adjust the ball in the air using the Nintendo 3DS Touch Screen. StreetPass with other Nintendo 3DS users to collect their high scores and challenge them to become a golf master!
“What Flick Golf 3D delivers is a polished, simple and accessible experience.”

– Nintendo Life
Flick Golf 3D makes excellent use of the 3D Depth Slider*, making it easier than ever to judge the position of the ball and adjust spin to hit the shots of your dreams. It’s a perfect fit for the super-stable 3D of the New Nintendo 3DS.

Play on several challenging courses in Quickshot, compete for trophies in World Tour, or put your golf skills to the ultimate test in Quickshot Pro.
Full Fat has a long history of developing for Nintendo platforms, dating back to 1996 and the Game Boy Color. We couldn’t be more thrilled to return to our roots with Flick Golf 3D!

Podcast Crew: Austin (Twitter), Jack (Twitter), Laura (Twitter)

Welcome to episode 106 I mean episode 110. How are you? I’m okay. I hope you’re okay too. Here’s an overview of what we’ll be talking about on this episode:

Segment 1, Intro: The game for this week’s Game of the Week is a very, very weird and probably-considered-offensive Famicom Disk System title called Time Twist! It never came out in the west though so I guess everything is okay.

Segment 2, What We Played: Austin has finally beaten MOTHER 3, and he has so much to say about it! Unfortunately he doesn’t want to spoil anything, so it ends up just being a lot of interesting and vague praise. Laura is continuing through Majora’s Mask 3D, but she’s trying to slow it down this week. Finally, Jack somehow ended up with Brain Age Express: Sudoku, which he says is a bit of a stink.

Segment 3, Book Club: The book club this week comes with a new focus: The bosses of A Link to the Past, what we can learn from them, and how they relate to bosses in more recent Zelda games. We end up talking a lot about Zelda bosses in general and what we like and dislike about them.

Segment 4, Listener Mail: Listener mail ended up being all Zelda topics this week! We address some concerns people have about Majora’s Mask 3D’s “improvements”, how Zelda Wii U could take some cues from the Oracle games to improve its overworld, and more!
