Last week, Bandai Namco announced that Empoleon would be added to the arcade version of Pokken Tournament on December 15. We now have a trailer for the character – view it below.

Game Informer previewed Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World this month, providing some new details in the process. The magazine also put out a one-page preview on Mario Sports Superstars. We now have a little bit of extra information on this game as well.

In case you haven’t heard, Mario Sports Superstars features five different sports: soccer, baseball, tennis golf, and the surprise inclusion of horse racing. Game Informer notes that single matches and tournaments can be played. You start out by choosing a couple of captains comprised of the bigger characters such as Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser. The rest of the team is then filled in with less prominent characters like Goombas, Magikoopas, and different costumed Toads.

Arcade elements will naturally be a part of the Mario Sports Superstars experience. Game Informer mentions special moves and abilities. The magazine also says that when pitching in baseball, it’s timing-based.

That was mostly it. Not quite as much here compared to Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World, but some extra tidbits. Since these previews are starting to appear, maybe we’ll see more hands-on impressions (and hopefully footage) from other outlets soon.

One of Dragon Ball Fusions’ recent updates in Japan added Goku Black and Future Trunks from Dragon Ball Super. Check out some footage below.

These characters should be coming west early next year, along with online play and other new content.

Bandai Namco has finally revealed that Empoleon is making its way to the arcade version of Pokken Tournament. The character is due to be added on December 15.

A number of new Pokemon have joined Pokken Tournament over the past few months. Darkrai, Scizor, Croagunk were all added since July, though only in arcades. It remains to be seen whether the Wii U version of Pokken Tournament will be updated with these characters.

Note that Empoleon was not shown during a Niconico stream, so footage is currently unavailable. If any streams or gameplay pops up, we’ll bring that to you.

Bandai Namco is set to unveil another new fighter in the arcade version of Pokken Tournament in just a few days. Today, the company has confirmed that a new roster addition will be announced on December 1 – this coming Thursday.

Scizor was added to Pokken Tournament arcade in October. Last month, Bandai Namco followed that up by bringing in Croagunk, which was somewhat unexpected. Since Darkrai was introduced during the summer, Empoleon is the only remaining character found in patch files for the Wii U version that has not been unveiled – so perhaps this Pokemon could be the new addition.

Bandai Namco has recently been showing new Pokken Tournament fighters during Niconico streams, but we haven’t heard anything about a broadcast thus far. Regardless, look for news later this week.

Dragon Ball Fusions debuted in North America a few days ago. Bandai Namco brought it to retail, but as always, you can opt for the digital version. Going with the latter option means you’ll need 4,730 blocks of free space (591.25 MB).

Yesterday, GameXplain held a live stream for Dragon Ball Fusions that spanned three hours. Get a look at the full archived version below.

The folks over at Game Informer have shared more footage from the English version of Dragon Ball Fusions. Check out their video below.
