We usually tend to hold most of our giveaways on Twitter, but there’s no reason why we can’t share the love on the main site from time to time… right?! And so that brings us to our latest giveaway: Paper Monsters Recut.
There are two ways to win this snazzy-looking Wii U eShop game. We’ll be giving away two copies right here on the site, and all that’s required of you is to leave a comment in the post below. We’re also giving away one copy on Twitter – make sure you’re following us and re-tweet this message!
That’s all. This will be a pretty quick giveaway, so all winners will be chosen tomorrow. Please keep in mind that these codes were specifically made for US Wii U console owners.
We’ve translated a few, final tidbits about Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS from director Masahiro Sakurai’s latest Famitsu column. These excerpts cover the Smash Run time, music, tips, and how Sakurai goes about handling the “pic of the day”.
As usual, you can find all of the responses below!
Update: Now over, but the full replay can be found below. I greatly appreciate those who joined and chatted with us!
This week’s Discussing Everything will begin at 4 PM ET / 1 PM PT as usual. We’ll be talking about the latest news, including the Smash Bros. Wii U leak on Amazon and plenty more! You’ll also have the chance to submit any random questions/comments towards the end of today’s event.
Note that you can log in with Facebook/Twitter, but these are optional. You can choose a random username as well!
Back in August, IronFall developer VD-Dev mentioned that the 3DS eShop title was 90 percent complete. The studio also said that a release date would be announced in September. That sadly did not happen, and there hasn’t been a single piece of news about IronFall since.
We recently reached out to VD-Dev and can confirm that IronFall is still in development despite the lack of updates over the past few months. The team took a “small break” in September, but has since resumed work. Communication ceased because VD-Dev has been busy with improvements, and a decision was made to announce a release date when IronFall is completely finished.
VD-Dev previously stated that there were plans to bring out IronFall this year. When asked if that is still the goal, we were told that there is no set date currently.
The game is currently 95 percent complete. It’s those last few percentages that “are taking much time”. While VD-Dev could simply release the game as is, the team has “love” for the project and wants to “polish every detail”.
