Look forward to Yoshi, Pokemon, and Earthbound amiibo soon

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo

If you’ve somehow completed your amiibo collection or are just craving a new batch of Nintendo characters to get excited about, you won’t have to wait long. Tons of new amiibo are coming from all over the Nintendo library, as well one from another classic gaming property.


Nintendo announced as part of the Nintendo Direct presentation yesterday that we can look forward to a new batch in May, including Charizard, Greninja, Jigglypuff, Wario, Robin, Lucina and Ness. Dark Pit and Palutena hit in July, while Zero Suit Samus, Ganondorf, Olimar, Dr. Mario and Bowser Jr. show up in September to kick off the fall season.


Alongside these, some game-specific amiibo will launch as well. Splatoon is getting a set of three amiibo. Inkling boy, Inkling girl, and a Squid amiibo will launch alongside the game on May 29th. Yoshi’s Wooly World gets three Yarn Yoshi amiibo on June 26, and then Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer will be the first game to get card amiibo when it launches this fall.


The Ness figure from Earthbound is apparently a GameStop exclusive, so a few gamers might have to call off feuds if they want to get that particular figure.




Jigglypuff, on the other hand, is exclusive to Target stores.


The Marth amiibo will see new stock sometime in May as well. No word on other characters yet.

Grandia II confirmed for an HD re-release on Steam

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo GungHo Entertainment of America apparently has the results of its recent customer survey , and Grandia II  is the lucky winner scoring the first HD remaster out of it. The report comes to us through GameSpot where the company claims that the game was given “enthusiastic” support. Grandia II was originally released on the Dreamcast in 2000 to quite a large amount of fanfare, and it arguably remains the second most popular RPG on the console after Skies of Arcadia . I played the PlayStation 2 version in 2002 way back when, and I wasn’t too impressed. However, the Grandia franchise is also home to that classic style of JRPG storytelling that only gets better with age. Maybe I’ll have to dedicate some time to this cult classic whenever GungHo gets around to publishing it. President of GungHo America Jun Iwasaki chimed in on the response. “With the rise of digital downloads, it is especially important that classic g...

Star Wars: Battlefront will not have classes

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo When it comes time to pick your gear and weaponry in DICE’s upcoming relaunch of  Star Wars: Battlefront , you won’t be sifting through classes or class-specific stuff. That’s because the new  Battlefront has no class. I don’t mean that in a belch during dinner at a fancy restaurant kind of way, either. I mean you won’t be picking stuff like Engineer, Assault or Support before you roll onto the battlefield. In an interview with OXM , as summed up by the magazine’s sister site  Games Radar , Design Director Niklas Fegraeus indicated that classes are out. You’ll be able to pick and choose between unlocked weapons and gear freely and build to your own style. Furthermore, Fegraeus also indicated that  Battlefront will not feature the five-person squad feature that  Battlefield  offers. Instead, players will run as partners, a group of two system that lets players stick together, appear on one another’s HUDs and spawn besi...

Exec behind “Next Big Thing” campaign has departed Samsung

Samsung Mobile CMO, Todd Pendleton, has reportedly departed the company, according to CNET . Pendleton is credited with creating Samsung’s famous “Next Big Thing” campaign, which took aim at the company’s rivals while highlighting the benefits of its own mobile lineup. The ads were smart, terse, and ultimately helped raise the awareness of Samsung’s brand as a major smartphone maker here in the U.S. It’s unclear why Pendleton left, but it’s being reported that Samsung executives became dissatisfied with the campaign’s recent success, even going so far as auditing the mobile division’s Dallas headquarters. It seems you can only use the Next Big Thing tagline so many times; the commercials have taken a decidedly different turn over the past few months, focusing on design, functionality and features rather than bashing Samsung competitors. The timing, I suppose, seems appropriate given that Samsung has just unveiled two new flagships, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Samsung is clearly ...
