According to Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu, the studio is still working on the character design for Azure Striker Gunvolt.
Aizu told Siliconera:
“During the development of Gunvolt, we researched what kind of design would appeal to boys between the ages of 10 and 14—who we assume will be the game’s main purchasers—in North America. As a result, we changed Gunvolt’s design, because braided hair and a bare midriff were unpopular among them. However, these changes are not final. We will continue to do research into the matter.”
Some noticed that some changes had been made to main character Gunvolt in the North American version. Basically, the western design drops his bare midriff and ponytail. It’s not much, but some feel that no changes should be made.

Lots of nice changes have gotten in the past month, so I'd say the delay is a good thing. Now it's time to push for release.

Only feature that wasn't able to get in is Miiverse integration – couldn't figure out the best way to put that in.

But I hope to add that in for a future update.

Nintendo and Camelot are planning on adding paid downloadable content to Mario Golf: World Tour. As noted in an eShop description for the game, players will be able to “Discover additional paid downloadable courses”.

A few new deals have hit the North American 3DS eShop. They are as follows:
Witch & Hero – $2.79 (was $3.99) through 5/1
Secret Mysterious in New York – $2.99 (was $5.99) through 5/8
