Nintendo have assured European, Australian and New Zealand customers that we won’t have to wait that much longer to get a hold of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U compared to the US. Today, via Twitter and Facebook, they confirmed that the game will be released a week early in these territories
You know how we said Super #SmashBros. for #WiiU would arrive in December in Europe? Change of plan: 28/11/2014 pic.twitter.com/kMzi5wZPvf

One thing which is strange though is how Japan still won’t be getting it until the 6th December 2014. Perhaps there will be an announcement in the near future? We’ll let you know if anything pops up.
But for now… Happy Halloween!
A couple days ago Nintendo announced that Yoshi Circuit would be returning to Mario Kart 8 in the DLC pack next month. Today, Nintendo UK announced another track that will be in the pack, and best of all, it is brand new!

UPDATE – Closing date extended to 31st October 2014
Yesterday I posted a brand new Fan Concept article all about my concept for Metroid Prime 4 and I asked you to stay tuned for today as we have something exciting to announce. Well, today has come and we have decided that to celebrate the recent announcement of the Mario Kart 8 Crossover DLC packs, we’d run a little competition where you could win yourself the Mario Kart 8 AOC Bundle Pack… or at least the eShop credit to pre-purchase it!

This is a rather sad month for Nintendo fans in the UK. This is because the 14th October 2014 marked the last ever issue of the Official Nintendo Magazine. The magazine has been going since 2006 [1992 if you include previous iterations] providing fans with exclusive news, previews, interviews and more about Nintendo and their games. Though I didn’t purchase every issue, it is still sad to see them leave. I still remember ONM way back from 2006!
It seems that in the final issue, Shigeru Miyamoto and Nintendo of Europe president, Satoru Shibata, both payed their respects to the magazine in the form of a hand drawn picture [by Miyamoto] and a heartfelt message [by Shibata].
You can see both of these after the break!
