Japan

Bandai Namco has the first commercial up for My Hero Academia: Battle for All. You can view it below.

Supply issues in Japan is something we initially heard about around a month ago. Interestingly, it seems to still be a problem of sorts.

Joshin, a big chain electronics store in Japan, recently posted a message about Wii U supply. It starts out by stating that the Premium Set is currently unavailable. Consumers are told that they need to understand the console is currently out of stock before placing an order, and Joshin has no confirmation as to when it will be available again.

Those who are really in need of a Wii U can only hope that the issue resolves soon. Joshin also won’t answer any emails about when the console will be back in stock. Units will be shipped as soon as possible, and due to an issue with resellers, only one console can be ordered at this time.

Wii U stock will be shipped as soon as possible. Consumers will be informed by email when orders are being sent out.

Thanks to Ben for sending this in.

As mentioned a few days ago, this week’s issue of Famitsu revealed Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure for 3DS.

One of the big hooks in this release is a RPG-esque mode called “Mystery Adventure Mode.” We now have more information about what to expect from this aspect of the game.

The story background/objective is to protect the world’s OOPArts. There are two main characters in Mystery Adventure Mode: Tia (the girl) and Popokaka (the monkey). Meanwhile, the antagonists are a mysterious group called Hexagria, who stole a Lion Fang Necklace OOPArt at the beginning of story.

This week’s expanded Japanese software sales are as follows:

This week’s issue of Jump has yet another update on Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3.

In the magazine, we’re shown an important and mysterious girl, who was designed by Akira Toriyama. She has a similar appearance as the protagonist, and also wears a Reactor device on her ear. Her description is as follows: “This girl knows everything about Break World!?” She even appears to know about the protagonist.”

Also shown in Jump are “Break Monsters”. These are ominous monsters seemingly eroded by something that should be considered a considerably formidable threat to the player.
