Pokemon Bank as well as Poke Transporter have launched across North America. 3DS owners can download the two apps at no extra cost, via the eShop. Pokemon Bank takes up 238 blocks of space on an SD card while Poke Transporter requires 218 blocks.
On Wii U, Miiverse has received a small update in order to match it more closely with the 3DS version.
The update pertains to two features. First, reloading has been switched from the L button to the Y button. Users can also now use the L/R buttons to quickly move up/down between posts.
Miiverse’s Marty shared the update news in an official post made earlier today:
Nyamyam last targeted a Q1 2014 launch for Tengami on Wii U, but the game is now expected out in Q2. The studio said on Twitter earlier today that extra time is needed in order to solve incompatibility with some of the middleware used in the game.

@69wpm It will be Q2. Some of the middleware we use doesn't currently support Wii U and we need to spend some time to solve that.

Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft have teamed up for… a parental controls flyer, interestingly enough. The ad above was spotted in a video game store in Sapporo, Japan just recently.
As one would expect, the flyer intends to explain the use of parental controls and increase the awareness of game ratings between consumers. It will be distributed in stores across Japan over the next few weeks.
Dakko Dakko released a new trailer for Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails today, posted above. The game’s release date has also been narrowed down to April.
