Much like they did with Shin Megami Tensei IV, Nintendo of Korea have announced that they will be localizing and publishing Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth some time in 2014. The Shin Megami Tensei series is one that has been localized to Korea for a number of years so while this isn’t entirely unexpected, it’s certainly good news for Persona fans in South Korea

Tomodachi Life may only be a couple of days away from launching in in the West, but for those looking for some more screenshots / what the early adopters have to say, the official Miiverse is now live.

Looking at a new item today, Sakurai explains the new Boomerang item as recently seen in Mario Kart 8:

Here’s a new item that we’ve thrown in–the boomerang. As you’d guess, it’ll fly back into your hands after you throw it, and if you keep catching it, its attack power grows with each throw! However, opponents can nab the boomerang out of the air, so it might be an easier item to use in Smash Run.
