Update: Bandai Namco has just confirmed via Twitter that Dragon Ball Fusion will indeed launch on November 22 in North America – more than three weeks earlier than its original release date of December 13.

EXCITING NEWS! We are moving up the launch of DRAGON BALL Fusions (3DS) from Dec. 13 to Nov. 22! Did you pre-order your copy yet? #DBFusions pic.twitter.com/6egOapALze

Original: Something strange is going on with Dragon Ball Fusions’ North American release date. Towards the end of last week, retailers started to update their listings, indicating that the game is launching within the next few days. Amazon and GameStop are both showing November 16 – yes, this Wednesday – while GameFly has it for Friday.

Both of these dates don’t make a whole lot of sense, as Bandai Namco’s games usually ship on Tuesdays. That’s why we shrugged it off and assumed those retailers simply made an error. However, a new listing has now appeared on the 3DS eShop with a November 22 release date. It would be a Tuesday, but still earlier than the previously-announced December 13 release date.

If I had to guess, Dragon Ball Fusions isn’t heading to stores this week. I’d say the eShop’s November 22 date is much more probable. Either way, we might be seeing Fusions sooner than we originally thought.

Back in September, it was revealed that Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden and One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum would be receiving special updates to allow for cross-play. We can now say this is now available for the two games.

After applying the update, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden and One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum players can battle against each other. Online and local play are both supported.

One important note: Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden players can only choose characters from the Dragon Ball series, and vice versa for One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum.

View a trailer for the new cross-play feature in Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden and One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum below.

Update: Added in a higher-quality version of the trailer.

Original: Another new character has been confirmed for the arcade version of Pokken Tournament. However, the roster addition comes as a bit of a surprise. While many expected Empoleon to be announced, Croagunk will instead be joining the fighting title.

Here’s a trailer as shown during a Niconico live stream today:

And some footage:

An animated film based on Bandai Namco’s Klonoa is in development. The film is being produced by Henshin, a U.S. animation company. There is currently no information on when production will start or release. Henshin founder Rob Pereyda will lead production, and Hitoshi Ariga will co-produce, design, and write for the film. Pereyda has previously worked on adaptations of other Bandai Namco franchises (Bravoman, Mappy, and Wonder Momo), while Ariga has done lots of work on Mega Man manga and designed several Pokemon for Pokemon X and Y.

Klonoa games have released on the Game Boy Advance and the Wii, and one of the GBA titles (KLONOA: Empire of Dreams) is available on the Wii U Virtual Console.

Another new character will be revealed for the arcade version of Pokken Tournament on November 1. On the official Japanese website, Bandai Namco teased the upcoming news. The announcement will take place during a Niconico stream per usual.

News will drop at roughly the following times:

– 4 AM PT
– 7 AM ET
– 12 PM in the UK
– 1 PM in Europe

Thus far, Darkrai and Scizor have been added to Pokken Tournament in arcades. Both were spotted in update files from the Wii U version several months ago along with Empoleon. Because of that, it’s likely then that Empoleon will be the newest character for Pokken Tournament.
