By the way, if you’re planning to get the game via the Nintendo eShop, you will need quite a bit of storage space for it. According to Nintendo’s website, the game takes no less than 7 813 blocks, aka 976MB.

Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World (3DS) comes out on February 3rd in Europe and North America.

Wolf Link amiibo

The Wolf Link amiibo was released alongside The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, last year. It was part of a Limited Edition bundle, but unlike in Europe and Japan, it was not sold separately in North America. It was supposed to get a stand-alone release, but months go by without any sign of that release.

We’re now in January 2017, and the Wolf Link amiibo is still not available separately in North America. But there’s some good news: such a release is still in the works! Earlier this week, BestBuy started listing the Wolf Link amiibo on its website. According to them, it will be released on March 2nd (just before The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which means it’s not just a random date), and it will cost $15.99.

Thanks Lights and Waves for the heads up!
