Gallery Let's Take A Look At The Incoming Splatoon Maps And Weapons
Squid seen with a Rapid Blaster Deco at Camp Triggerfish
Splatoon is out now and thrilling Wii U owners as we speak, but the game we're playing at the moment is a long way off being the finished article - Nintendo has plenty of other content planned, including new modes, maps and weapons. Thanks to the Prima official game guide to Splatoon, we can...
Gallery Phoenix Wright, Axel From Streets of Rage and More Feature in New Project X Zone 2 Screens
Gloriously insane
Project X Zone 2 was a slightly surprising reveal in the last month, as the original on 3DS had performed reasonably but hadn't exactly lit up the charts. Nevertheless we have another bold crossover RPG featuring diverse characters from Capcom, SEGA and Bandai Namco; it's as crazy as it sounds. The cast for this latest entry will...
Gallery Splatoon Development Updates Bring Fashion, amiibo, Game Modes and More Paper
Let's warm up for Splatoon Direct

Gallery Feast Your Eyeballs on These Xenoblade Chronicles X Wallpapers
Time to buy a Japanese Wii U?
We'll admit it, we like covering Xenoblade Chronicles X for Wii U, even if it means gazing longingly towards Japan and contemplating rapid-fire lessons in the Japanese language. Monolith Soft's RPG is rather impressive in its scope and ambition, and we can't help but admire it. With that in mind, and with the game...
Gallery Get Hot Under the Collar in the Continent Of Black Steel in Xenoblade Chronicles X
Is it warm in here?
If you're a Wii U owner in Japan with any affection at all for RPGs, we suspect Xenoblade Chronicles X by Monolith Soft is pinging rather loudly on your radar. The huge adventure arrives in Japan on 29th April, less than a week from today, leaving those of us in the West a tad jealous. A benefit of the upcoming release is the...
Gallery Yarn Yoshi Is Just Too Darn Cute
Nintendo turns the 'cuteness' up to 11
During Nintendo's latest Nintendo Direct it emerged that we won't be able to visit Yoshi's Woolly World until at least June in Europe and a vague 'Fall' in North America. It's been over 2 years since the game was first announced and we can't wait to play it, but hopefully this selection of real-life Yarn Yoshi...
Feature Gawk at Fancy Super Smash Bros. Mewtwo Screens and Full Costume DLC Details
What's the deal with the DLC?
As sanity returns to the world of Nintendo, with many taking some time off for the Easter weekend, we thought we'd take advantage of the fact that the official Smash Bros. website is no longer creaking under excess traffic and grab some details and pretty images. This article's in two parts - there's a gallery of the...
Gallery Splatoon Development Updates Show Off Neat Threads, Guns, Videos and, erm, Paper
Also, Octobombers look ridiculous but sublime
There's been a bit of buzz around Splatoon since our last gallery summary earlier in March, and we were fortunate enough to attend some press events to play more of the upcoming Wii U shooter. We previewed the multiplayer and single player modes and also shared a belief that Splatoon is to shooters what...
Gallery Nintendo Celebrates Women's History Month In Its Own Unique Way
Tetra, Lucina, Samus Aran and more
If you're not aware, March is Women's History Month, which coincides with International Women's Day on 8th March and aims to promote key contributions from women to history and contemporary society. Nintendo, for its part, sent out a press release recently to highlight some diverse characters from its library that...
Gallery Splatoon Development Updates Show Off Fashion, Octolings and Guns
Some short videos are even inked in
Arriving in May, Splatoon is one of our most-anticipated Wii U games in the coming months, even if we're still awaiting a final release date - with single player, local multiplayer and online multiplayer all included, it should offer plenty of content along with its quirky approach to third-person arena shooting...
Gallery Mega Man: The Board Game Gets Closer to Reality
Finalising content with Capcom
We've covered Mega Man: The Board Game a fair amount, from its origins on Kickstarter to tentative updates as Jasco Games has worked towards making the final product a reality. As a relatively complicated game with plenty of text and miniatures to produce, it's clearly been a challenging project. A major part of that...
News Gallery: A Closer Look at Japan's Majora's Mask 3D Pre-Order Bonus
Japan's exclusive postcards are something to behold
Nintendo released a staggering amount of promotional items the world over for the recent launch of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D. Most regions, including the UK, made available a Skull Kid figurine for gamers who pre-ordered the game, while retailers like GAME opted for paperweights of...
Gallery It's Time For Another Influx of Xenoblade Chronicles X Screens and Footage
'Interesting' character customisations, New LA, landscapes and a cat
Xenoblade Chronicles X is only a couple of months away in Japan, so the official website is regularly posting new information, screens and videos for fans to enjoy. The latest influx of content is certainly worth a look, as it covers character customisation, shows off New Los...
Gallery Splatoon Development Updates Show Off Perks, Weapons and Quirky Shop Clerks
The ink missile certainly looks deadly
Arriving in May, Splatoon is certainly set to be a vital release for the Wii U before the summer season - Nintendo doesn't release many third-person shooters with a territorial twist. Its brand of chaotic but fun online multiplayer - with local and single player also included - will also try to make the most of...
Gallery We Have Take-Off With These Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy+ amiibo Planes
I feel the need...
The snappily-titled Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy+ isn't far away, hitting 3DS on 13th February - that's a big day for the portable, with the New Nintendo 3DS, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate all arriving on that day. As we outlined in our
Gallery Feast Your Eyes on the Super Mario and Super Smash Bros. Wave 4 amiibo
Bank balances, beware
In the first Nintendo Direct broadcasts of 2015 the amiibo brand played its part, with new figures announced to keep the action going in both Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS, and a fresh range to make an impact in Mario Party 10. Many of the toys will support a wide range of games in different ways, but it's in these two...
Gallery A Closer Look at the Latest Splatoon Updates
New environments, artwork and details
Late last year Nintendo launched an official Tumblr page for Splatoon, which provides translations of the regular posts made to the Japanese Twitter account for the game. While always light-hearted, they often go beyond mere concept art to provide snippets of interesting information, rather like the...
Gallery A Chance to Admire Some of the Finest Legend of Zelda Cosplay
Hyrulian fashion
If you head along to almost any major gaming or pop-culture expo you'll likely see plenty of cosplay, whether it's the efforts of keen fans or those entering official competitions. Faithfully recreating the look of favourite characters is more than a fun diversion for some, of course, but rather a way of life. At the top level...
Gallery Duck Hunt's Super Smash Bros. Screens Are Barking Mad
Not too ruff
It's the end of a busy week in the world of Nintendo, with the main event being a Direct broadcast on 5th November, which contained some tasty reveals. The least surprising of these reveals related to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, as the big N finally brought us the announcement video for Duck Hunt (known as D
Gallery Project CARS Screens Focus on Realistic Karting
Not a blue shell in sight
Project CARS has had a rather protracted development to date, with the realistic driving sim picking up Bandai Namco as publisher but also getting pushed back to allow for further development. Most versions are now due in March 2015, while the Wii U iteration will arrive later next year. While it's pleasing that the Wii U...
Gallery Enjoy a Cuteness Overload in These Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Screens
D'awwwwwww
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker could quite possibly be the most adorable game played on Wii U systems this Festive season — unless you're in Europe and it's a New Year treat. Last week cleared up release dates and, we shouldn't forget, revealed Toadette as a playable character, tipping this one over the safe levels of cuteness. It is...
Gallery A Closer Look at the Six New amiibo Figures
Oh Luigi, you lovable scamp
Earlier today Nintendo confirmed release dates and details for amiibo figures, with the pleasing announcement of a 'second wave' of six toys that will arrive in December — they're confirmed for the 19th of that month in Europe and are yet to be pinned down in North America. They'll bring more of the Super Smash Bros...
Gallery Check Out These Photo Highlights From EGX 2014
Didn't attend? Then cast your eyes over these snaps
The end of last week saw the arrival of EGX 2014, the UK's biggest gaming event and home to the 2014 Mario Kart 8 Championships — which Nintendo Life helped host. Although the show saw a record attendance this year, sadly not everyone can have the chance to go along for the ride — so we've put...
Gallery A Closer Look At 13 amiibo Toys
Prepare your wallets
Nintendo's lining up multiple blockbuster releases for the Holiday season, but the most important will likely be its range of NFC toys — amiibo. Marketing these figures, successfully implementing them in games and securing plenty of shelf space with the biggest retailers represent three major challenges for Nintendo, though...
