Have Your Cake And Eat It As Nintendo Listing Suggests It's Making A Game Called EclairCity

Eclair is French for Lightning too...so....

Thunder Cakes?

.....oh god thunder thighs...

PG: Mild Cake Violence

Retro Studios' next game confirmed!

@Blathers He meant "and eat it" I guess.

Would pie to the face count as "mild violence"?

... I will be needing an extra 30 minutes on the static bike just from looking at that banner picture.

Sweet! I’m hungry for news on this game.

Could be a spin off game or working title of an Animal Crossing?

Well, obviously this is the sequel to Advance Wars. With pastries. But don't worry guys, it WILL have motion control and HD Rumble.

Always wanted to play a weaponised eclair game. Death by chocolate shall rain from the skies. I hope humanity is ready to receive divine fudgement.

Princess Eclair was the damsel in distress paper Luigi saved from the evil lord chestnut in the first paper Mario.

Paper Luigi game confirmed. Mr. L returns.

How about a Fat Princess game? Feed Princess Peach with cake, make her fat so Bowser can't kidnapped her so easily.

I love eclairs. They're always a disappointment if you get them outside of France though.

Eclair Throw !!

Sounds more like a Mario Kart IX course to me, but I'm a dreamer . . .

If they don't get Damon Baker to announce it they're doing it wrong.

@bluedogrulez Mario Kart DLC perhaps?

@OorWullie - This will be the only way I buy the game now.

You guys think this may be connected to Tomato Adventure (The game that spurred the Mario & Luigi RPG series)?

This means nothing. It's an automated IARC rating (which applies only to eShop titles and other mobile platforms). It's very likely that Nintendo submitted the application on behalf of a smaller developer/publisher as they have for many other eShop titles. I very strongly doubt that this is an actual Nintendo developed/published game.

I wish you guys would stop reporting on oddities in the Australian Classification Board's database considering that you guys have absolutely no idea how they operate.

This is either a 3DS and/or Switch eShop game, though I put assume it to be for the Switch considering how barren the 3DS release schedule is.

Dang it Nintendo Life, you know that chocolate is my weakness, now I have to read the article!

I call a release date of 3.14

New stage for Smash confirmed!!

I imagine they'll pull the plug on this one if (when) Sushi Striker completely tanks.

No hate on the game, it looks fun enough for what it is, but Sushi Striker just seems too niche to have wide appeal.

Finally, paper luigi and princess eclaire’s tale will be told!

@Nincompoop I loved fat princess..... Would be awesome to get a sequal on the Switch.

And now I want an eclair...

It's a good think we're approaching the weekend, when I'm generally more lax about my eating habits... Because now I'm craving a vanilla eclair.

Imagine if this was a code name for a new entry in the Mother series... EclairCity could be a new location! Or it could be a cute little puzzle / God sim with Pullblox / Pushmo aesthetics ^_^ All aboard the hype train!

They’re doing it. They are making a Paper Luigi game where he saves princess eclair

@LUIGITORNADO: @MintFox: @Roam85:

• Actually, off the top of my head, I just thought how possible it would be for Paper Luigi to be a real series, or as a side story game inside Paper Mario titles. Same universe, just different gameplay, or the same style gameplay, just different characters/stories. By the way, Luigi's story about Eclair was not in the first PM, but the sequel, "The Thousand-Year Door".

Working title for the new Pokemon game. I'd bet.

Mario Odyssey DLC

Probably some indie game from an indie studio on the Switch eShop.

Hmm...2016 SMD leak...Torte City...

Galaktoboureko City

finally, the next Cooking Mama game

It makes me think of Pokemon. Wasn't X/Y modeled after aspects of France? Maybe this is a tie in to that game?

Sequel to Sushi Strikers, no doubt.

@Dom Congrats, the eclair made it to The Know!

Didn’t Sakurai tweet he can’t reveal the name of the new Smash Bros yet?

Here it is.

Someone already found out that this was the codename for Kirby Star Allies and it was mistakenly submitted with that.

Tortecity was Kirby Planet Robobot file and codename and it seems they really have a theme with foods when it comes to Kirby games.

So yeah. No game. Well game, but already known game. Kirby Star Allies.

@masterLEON Haha, that's sick!

Interesting news... However, the most appealing aspect of the article was the picture at the start.

Mother 4 of course.

@Yookatonic,

Lol!

An eclair is a sweet. The Sweet Sweet Galaxy was a hard bonus world in Galaxy 1.

Galaxy 3 confirmed for this Xmas. Rosalina returns as well...
