Koei Tecmo appears to be readying another character reveal for Hyrule Warriors. The game’s official Twitter account teased that the probability of an announcement is 98%, and fans are advised to check out this week’s issue of Famitsu.
Expect the news to leak out as early as tomorrow. As always, we’ll have the news here as soon as it breaks.
Pokemon X and Pokemon Y players can now download Fancy Pattern Vivillon. The special creature is being distributed to celebrate 100 million trades in the GTS, which happened yesterday. Fancy Pattern Vivillon can’t be found under normal circumstances, so this is most definitely a unique promotion.
Though the game is already out in the West and has been out in Japan for even longer, the demo for Bravely Default was just updated on the Japanese eShop. Up to Chapter 4 of the game is now playable and the full game update is available for purchase for 2000 yen, unlocking the voice acting along with the remaining content.

Today’s screenshot features the Mii Gunner once again, as Sakurai explains one of the possible attacks available to Mii fighters:
The Mii Gunner’s side smash attack may have the farthest reach of all the side smashes…as should be expected from a firearms expert!! Looks like the attack missed this time, though.
Around the Water Cooler is the latest feature we’re introducing on Nintendo Everything. It’s mainly being led by Scott – someone who you may have seen before if you’ve checked out his Unlikely Review video (more of those are hopefully coming soon by the way!).
So here’s the deal. Around the Water Cooler is you’re opportunity to sound off on Nintendo-related subjects. Every two weeks, Scott will come up with a new topic (we are definitely welcoming topic ideas from you guys), and discussions will be held in each post. The subsequent video will highlight select comments about the previous topic made on both the main site and/or on YouTube.
Scott wanted me to let you know that this first video is a bit of a pilot. We already have a few improvements in mind, and your comments/interest will shape Around the Water Cooler’s future. Also: you’ll see more than just a silly green screen next time!
And now for this week’s topic: 2D vs. 3D Mario…
