Three new Virtual Console games are on track for the Japanese Wii U eShop next week. Mega Man 7 (SNES), Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones (GBA), and Final Fight (SNES) will be out on August 6. Pricing is set at 823 yen for the SNES games and 702 yen for the GBA title.
It’s tough to believe, but Shin Megami Tensei IV still hasn’t arrived in Europe. On the bright side, Atlus will finally have a concrete update about the game tomorrow. We’re hearing that something may surface at around 10 AM GMT or so.
Based on comments from an Atlus staffer, it sounds like Shin Megami Tensei IV has been reconfirmed as digital-only in Europe. It also seems that getting the game out in the continent has been a bit of a mess.
Pocket Dragon Games has announced its first project for Wii U. Doodle Dash is in the works for the eShop, the indie developer confirmed today.
Doodle Dash is a multiplayer, drawing-based party game. It will only be available on Wii U.

Bandai Namco is working on a third Aikatsu! game for 3DS called “Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days”.
Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days is a “real idol adventure” whereas the previous two games were “idol experience” games. The new 3DS entry will allow players to enjoy 365 “ultra-realistic” idol days and has them aiming for the top as a live performer, actress and model.
Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days’ first trailer, posted above, shows that you’ll have to schedule your lessons and work – like posing and photo-shoots.
Aikatsu! 365 Idol Days launches in Japan on December 4. The game’s three junior idols – Akari ?zora, Sumire Hikami and Hinaki Shinj? – will be featured in the new Aikatsu! anime series that is debuting in October.
