A specific western release date for Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth hasn’t been officially announced yet, but the game seems to be coming out in November.

In North America, retailers like Amazon list a November 25 release date. Meanwhile, the newly opened NIS America Europe (take that in for as second) online store lists a November 28 date.

So as of now, both North America and Europe appear to be getting Persona Q in later November.

Shovel Knight has been highly trumpeted by Nintendo since the game’s early days of development, up through release. Heck, the title is even playable at the Nintendo World store right now.

All in all, Yacht Club Games’ Nick Wozniak says Nintendo has “been really accommodating to our weird requests, and getting stuff done to see if they can promote us better.”

You can find Wozniak’s full comments about working with the Big N below.

The winners of the Game Critics Awards for the best of E3 2014 have now been revealed. Nintendo have come away with a total of three awards, which are as follows:

  • Best Handheld/Mobile Game Winner: Super Smash Bros. for 3DS
  • Best Fighting Game Winner: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Seems like Super Smash Bros. was a clear favourite for Nintendo here among critics. A full list of winners can be found here.

Oddworld creator Lorne Lanning is open to remaking another one of the series’ entries, Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus.

Lanning told Wired that it may very well be the next project the team takes on depending on success. If New ‘n’ Tasty sells well, we should eventually be seeing Abe’s Exoddus in HD.

Lanning said:

With success, yes. The number one thing is selling games — when they profit, we can make more games. With success, Exoddus will be the next game we make and with a LOT of success we’ll start making new IPs.

Also while speaking with Wired, Lanning discussed why it wasn’t possible for Oddworld Inhabitants to make a new IP. The studio ended up rebuilding Abe’s Oddysee since that’s what fans requested the most.

A new item is now available in Disney Magical World. Players can get their hands on a “a hip casual Mickey Mouse T-shirt” to dress characters in.

Nintendo shared the DLC news on Twitter, writing:
