Nintendo News: 04.04.2016 - 08.04.2016

Hello and Welcome to Dillians Nintendo News Recap.

Let's not waste any time and directly start with the new game releases of this week.

New Releases:


  • Wario Land: The Shake Dimension – Wii Download Version (Wii-U)
  • Super Robo Mouse – Wii-U Download-Software
  • Lovely Planet – Wii-U Download-Software
  • Epic Dumpster Bear – Wii-U Download-Software
  • Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus – Wii-U Download-Software
  • Asdivine Hearts – Wii-U Download-Software
  • Witch&Hero 2 – Nintendo 3DS Download-Software
  • Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games – Nintendo 3DS Game Card

With Mario and Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games we have at least one physical release this week. I haven't played any of the Mario and Sonic games, but watching the Trailer they seem like nice party games. If Smash. Bros, Mario Kart and Mario Party don't cover your needs, you can take a look. At least when the Wii-U Version releases on the 24th of June.
Aside from this ''big'' title we have the usual assortment of indie games. Chronicles of Teddy looks like an interesting game, if you like the Pixel artstyle.



Nintendo:



It seems that Nintendo is returning to their pre Wii color scheme. Their social media accounts and in-store presence have been changed. While the writing itself remains white, the background has returned to classic red from earlier days.

Hyrule Warriors Legends:



Nintendo released the full Hyrule Warriors Legends panel from WonderCon. Yosuke Hayashi, Producer, and Hiroya Usuda, Director, answer the questions and show us some interesting insight into the development of Characters, Stages and other things. Here's the full video for you to watch:

Nintendo Online Store:



Nintendo has talked a lot about their plan to expand their intellectual property. One way of doing that is merchandise. This week the Nintendo Online Store launched in Europe and offers you a wide variety of Figures, T-Shirts and other things directly from Nintendo. You can check it out here: https://nos.nintendo-europe.com/landing.html


Pokemon Go:



The Beta for Pokemon Go is already well underway in Japan, but now Niantic plans to extend it to New Zealand and Australia. If you live in one of these two countries you can register yourself for a spot in the Beta here: http://pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/
Good Luck.



Splatoon:



On the twelfth of April you have a reason to fire up your Wii-U once again, because a new updade for Splatoon launches that day. It will include some stage adjustments and new weapons. It seems like the content stream for Splatoon is far from drying up.
Also it has been announced that a second squid sisters concert will happen on the 29th of April at the NicoNico Chokaigi in Japan. If you haven't seen the first concert, here it is:

Star Fox Zero:



GameXplain had the chance to extensively play the game and has release a bunch of videos on their channel. You can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/user/GameXplain?nohtml5=False

I'm really looking forward to this game and you can expect a review as soon as I get my hands on it on April 22nd.

There wasn't all too much this week, but I definitely recommend you to check out the Hyrule Warriors Video and the videos from GameXplain.

And as always

thanks for reading
