Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow on the 3DS VC – Mew glitch still in, Jynx color change
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 48 Comments
We have a couple of more interesting tidbits to share regarding Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow on the 3DS Virtual Console.
First, the Mew glitch is still in. This should work in all three versions on the Virtual Console. For a look at this in action, watch the video below.
There’s also a bit of news about Jynx. The sprite was originally colored black, but has been changed to purple for the re-release.
Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow are now available on the 3DS eShop as Virtual Console downloads.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors, Switch, Wii U | 56 Comments
On Monday, NeoGAF user “Trevelyan9999” posted alleged details regarding NX and Nintendo’s lineup for 2016. I usually tend to be skeptical when it comes to rumors from sources that I’m unfamiliar with or aren’t widely known, so I held off on sharing that on the site. However, new information has since come to light indicating that Trevelyan9999 may have been spot on.
Let’s go over the actual information first. Here’s a look at everything that was posted:
– Zelda Wii U will also be available for NX
– Zelda NX to be a holiday 2016 release either same day as Zelda Wii U or shortly after during the Nintendo NX holiday 2016 launch window
– Nintendo NX launch games for 2016 besides Zelda NX and marketing focus remain hidden for now
– Wii U $34.5 million marketing budget for 2016 total – Zelda Wii U has $10 million with the possibility of the funding being switched to Zelda NX version depending on launch timing in 2016.

Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon will have a new world and Pokemon, note on 3D
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 42 Comments
Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon were formally announced today. We didn’t receive a whole lot of details other than a release window and information about supported languages. We saw some development footage as well with image snippets, but that was pretty much it.
The official Pokemon site does offer up a couple of extra tidbits about Sun and Moon at least. Both will feature “a new world, new Pokémon, and new adventures to discover”.
By the way, we also have a small note on 3D for those that missed it. It seems that Sun and Moon will have similar functionality as past games. The North American Pokemon Direct said that they’re in 3D, though some areas will also be playable in 3D.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 24 Comments
Today’s Pokemon Direct will begin one hour from now. We’ve embedded the live stream below, similar to past presentations.
Since the broadcast will only last five (update: six) minutes, we’ve decided that a live blog wouldn’t make much sense. However, any major news will be added to the site immediately.
