Last week’s Famitsu offered a first look at PoPoLoCrois Bokujou Monogatari (otherwise known as PoPoLoCrois Harvest Moon). We now have a bunch of translated details from the magazine. Head past the break for the full rundown!

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart! Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV, Super Smash Bros. for 3DS, and Tales of Zestiria are all in the top five.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between August 21 and August 27.

It’s not too often that we’re able to obtain sales of digital games. However, a recent issue of Famitsu shared sales of one prominent 3DS eShop title, Kirby Fighters Deluxe (otherwise known as Kirby Fighters Z).

Famitsu reveals that Kirby Fighters Deluxe has sold over 20,000 copies in Japan. The magazine doesn’t make this entirely clear, but it seems that 88 percent of the games sales came from the eShop directly. The other 12 percent account for download cards purchased at retailers.
