Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS feature stages from previous games in the franchise. There are some stages from Brawl, Melee, and even the original release.

In his latest “Smash Bros. Diaries” entry included in this month’s issue of Game Informer, director Masahiro Sakurai addressed a question about how the team decided on which stages to bring back.

There are several factors that came in to play. Sakurai mentioned “the popularity of the stage, whether or not it’s a match for the 3DS screen, and whether or not two stages from the same setting are getting ported” were all considered.

Below are Sakurai’s full comments:

There will be two versions of Mario Party 10 at launch – the standard game, and a bundle containing the new Mario amiibo. Strangely, we’re now hearing that the Mario figure will be exclusive to the bundle at launch.

A notice on Amazon’s product page states, “For a limited time, the only way to play with the Mario Party Mario amiibo included!”

We’re not sure how long that “limited” window is. But at least to start out, you’ll need to pick up the bundle if you want to get your hands on the new Mario amiibo. Pre-orders are already sold out on Amazon, so that’s one retailer option already gone.

Update: Best Buy is sending out an email to consumers confirming that low stock is to blame. $50 credit is being offered to compensate.

We’re sorry but there is an issue with your pre-order. The popularity of Nintendo 3DS XL Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask Limited Edition Gold/Black exceeded the quantities made available to Best Buy. As a result, we are unable to fulfill all of the pre-orders received. We regret that your particular order has been canceled and we know that this is disappointing. We want to make it up to you by offering a $50 discount that may be used towards the purchase of one of these alternate options, or other products on BestBuy.com/

The Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL situation just got a whole lot messier at Best Buy. We’re hearing that a slew of people have experienced order cancellations today.

This is different than what we reported on earlier this week, in which Best Buy started cancelling orders containing more than one system. Unfortunately, those who did only order one Majora’s Mask New 3DS XL are now seeing cancellations as well.

GameFly listed Terraria for Wii U and 3DS earlier this week. At the time, we couldn’t be sure if those listings were legitimate or innocuous errors. But thanks to new findings at a different retailer, it seems quite possible that 505 Games is indeed bringing Terraria to both of Nintendo’s platforms.

Terraria popped up for both Wii U and 3DS on Amazon today. A $29.99 price point is listed, along with a tentative October 31 launch date.

There is one strange thing about this situation: GameFly has since pulled its Wii U and 3DS Terraria listings. GameFly tends to be reliable more often than not, so I’m wondering if that was done simply because 505 Games hasn’t made an announcement yet. Either way, we’ll try to get an official answer from the company.
