Highlights from Nintendo Direct

It's getting pretty late here; so I'm going to do a roundup of what I feel were the highlights of the latest Nintendo Direct!



New 3DS and New 3DS XL arriving February 13th- Yup, the New 3DS lineup will hit European shores on February 13th 2015. The smaller model comes in Black or White with customisable faceplates, while the XL comes in Black or Metallic Blue. I think Nintendo just gave me an idea for a Valentines Day present. ;-)

There's also going to be a limited edition Majora's Mask XL model and a Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate XL model. The MH4 console looks gorgeous but I can't help but think the Majora's Mask console should have been purple instead of gold, it would have been much more striking!


New Amiibo's- Still no word on Captain Olimar ( ; _ ; ), but instead we have Wario, Robin, Lucina, Ness, Pac-Man and Charizard to keep us company in the meantime.

There's also going to be new versions of Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Peach and Yoshi, alongside a new Toad amiibo, with their designs being in-line with the Super Mario universe rather than Smash Bros.

Splatoon- This is shaping up to be one of my most anticipated Wii U titles for 2015. Nintendo revealed updates for their colourful new shooter including; customisation options for your characters, new weapons and a huge plaza allowing you to interact with other players while you gear up for your next battle.

Here's a link to the Nintendo Direct if you want to check it out.
