Specifically, V-Jump magazine has revealed that Monster Hunter XX will get a collaboration with the popular manga/anime Hunter x Hunter. This consists of four special pieces of equipment: Gon’s head, Gon’s shirt, Gon’s arms and Gon’s legs.
What the equipment looks like is actually a major spoiler for Hunter x Hunter, so we’ve put the image past the break.

Japan: Switch sells over 300,000 units in first week
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 100 Comments
Update (3/7): Famitsu now has an article up on its actual website. Between March 3 and March 5, Zelda: Breath of the Wild sold 193,060 units at retail with a 58 percent attach rate. Also, Famitsu’s website reports a figure of 330,637, so we’ll be using that one instead of the previously-reported 313,700.
Original (3/6): Data from Famitsu reveals that first week sales of Switch came in at 313,700 units in Japan. To compare, other notable console launches include the Wii at 371,900 units, Wii U at 308,600 units, and PlayStation 4 at 322,100 units.
By first week, that should mean Switch’s first three days on the market. Famitsu’s next reporting period is between February 27 and March 5, and Switch came out on March 3 – so that would account for sales from Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Earlier today, it was reported that Switch doubled up on Wii U in the UK by selling 80,000 units in its opening weekend. No numbers are out for North America, but the system had a record-breaking launch for Nintendo.

Nintendo opened up a Legend of Zelda and a Mario portal on its Japanese website
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
There are two really interesting new additions to Nintendo’s Japanese website: a Legend of Zelda portal and a Mario portal.
You can learn more about each series’ characters and games there. The Legend of Zelda portal is especially interesting since it also features behind-the-scenes info like artwork and production notes (though that section is a bit bare at the moment). There’s also a section that’s not available yet called “Keywords”, marked as “coming soon”. You will likely be able to find infos about recurring themes and names from the Legend of Zelda series there, like the Triforce or the Master Sword.
