Stash: No Loot Left Behind has been successfully funded on Kickstarter. About a day ago, the campaign crossed the $50,000 mark.

Stash: No Loot Left Behind is Frogdice’s new multiplayer online RPG. You can find an overview in the video above, and plenty of details on the Kickstarter page here. The game should hit Wii U and other consoles after the PC release.

This week’s issue of Famitsu contains the first review of Super Smash Bros. for 3DS. While the magazine is sometimes questioned for the scores it hands out, it’s still interesting to check out what Famitsu says from time to time.

We now have a complete translation of the Smash Bros. 3DS review. If you’re curious as to what was said about the game, continue on below.

Just like yesterday, this will be our one-stop area for Smash Bros. 3DS footage for the day…

A first look at the Pokemon Global Link for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire can be found above.

While the aesthetics are the same, new features will be offered such as the ability to upload photos from Pokemon Contests and keeping track of the popular places to build Super Secret Bases. Rating Battle Season 7 will be compatible simultaneously with both Pokemon X/Y and Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

Fans should also be aware that there will be several days of downtime prior to the launch of Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

Unseen64 has collected a bunch of concept art from Mario Strikers Charged as well as information about scrapped concepts.

Here’s a summary of some of the more interesting points:

– “Ball launchers” were considered at one point as an aesthetic addition to levels
– These were machines that would have propelled multiple balls up towards characters during mega strikes
– The iconic metal football featured in the game went through 12 reiterations and became simpler over time
– Characters in armor was decided on partway through early beta development following experimentation by concept artists
– Before this, character models were drawn much in the style of Super Mario Strikers (fairly standard football kits)
– At one point, the artists toyed around with the level of armour each character would have equipped and other details
– It is possible that that the game had some alterations made to its initial stage selection
– Concept art includes an unnamed stadium set inside a futuristic city; scrapped for unknown reasons
– Next Level Games discarded the concept of playing field set on top of an enormous aircraft
– Some minor adjustments were made to the final stadiums over their first visualizations

To say that the launch of Super Smash Bros. for 3DS was a success in Japan would be an understatement. As the title officially arrived at retailers, long lines were spotted at numerous stores.
