Just 17 more days, guys. I’m hoping I’ll have my town in order for you to visit by then.

New SMT IV trailer teaches the Samurai Way
Shin Megami Tensei IV’s samurai don’t seem too traditional, based on their “way” shown here. I don’t recall any Kurosawa films in which the samurai vanquished demons, recruited navigational AIs, or downloaded demon fusion apps.
Nice English voice acting, though!

eShop sale for The Denpa Men
This week’s list of 3DS downloadable releases in the U.S. is weak, but there’s a decent sale for Genius Sonority’s whimsical RPG The Denpa Men that cuts its price from $9.99 to $7.99. Now’s a great time to pick it up if you haven’t yet, as its sequel releases in a week and you can carry over your hero’s data.
Meanwhile Wii U’s Virtual Console is holding a buy 2 Kirby games get 1 free sale, and Europe’s 3DS eShop gets a demo for Project X Zone. And on the retail side, Amazon is still selling New Super Mario Bros. 2, Fire Emblem: Awakening, Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D for $29.99 each.

Are you ready for this? A Game Center CX-themed Animal Crossing: New Leaf room
I can hardly type this post, that’s how much my hands are trembling right now… It’s so beautiful… The jacket, the dry erase board, and even the area for filming episodes… My mouth wants to scream with endless joy, but the only thing coming out are ellipses…
There’s more info on how you can visit this virtual room once you have a copy of the game over at Sweetiebel.
Speaking of the show, the Last Continue GCCX team recently put out another fan-translated Game Center CX episode — it’s the Super Metroid finale! The group is also looking for some help, so you should volunteer if you have the skillset and are a decent person.

Altered Beast welcomed to its doom the 3DS
Hey, it’s another classic from Sega enhanced and thrown onto the eShop — Altered Beast! The game will add a lot of the features we saw in 3D Sonic the Hedgehog, like a CRT emulation mode, button remapping, options to play JP/Western versions, depth and zoom 3D options, etc.
Sega will put out 3D Altered Beast next week to Japan. There’s no word about a Western release, but the publisher has announced that it’s bringing 3D Space Harrier to Europe, so maybe the rest of the series is on the way too.
Thanks to Super Walter and Brother Brain for the GIFs from the 16-bit edition!

Original Shantae hits eShop on June 20
A month from now, you’ll be able to buy cult Game Boy Color platformer Shantae — the first original property from WayForward, and the first release that got people to really start noticing the studio — on 3DS’s Virtual Console in North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
WayForward is putting out so much on the 3DS this year: this release, Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse, Mighty Switch Force! 2, Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW!, and Regular Show: Mordecai and Rigby In 8-Bit Land. I wouldn’t be surprised if we heard more announcements for 2013 either.

Dang, Emmylou is coldhearted
Looks like Phillip stopped in his tracks after that statement, completely destroyed by Emmylou’s disapproval. Gotta step up your coat game, young’n.
I’ve mentioned a bunch already that Fire Emblem: Awakening, Super Mario 3D Land, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, and Mario Kart 7 are all on sale for $30, but did you know that you can get Style Savvy: Trendsetters for under $20 right now?

Where we’re going, we don’t need official boxart

Animal Crossing: New Leaf’s fortune teller
Katrina set up her tent in my town the other day and offered to tell me my fortune for a nominal fee. Now, I dont usually believe in all this astronomy nonsense or what have you, but I’m telling you, something weird happened there. I was floating in space for a second, and I saw an owl flying backwards, but there was no owl. And a faraway voice sang:
night so dark
where are you?
come back in my heart
so dark
so dark
I ran home and slipped into some hot pants. Also made sure my New Leaf character wore shorts that day.

Tiny Cartridge & Etrian Odyssey IV QR code
Etrian Odyssey IV owners, here’s one more quest you can send your party to complete in the game, if you don’t mind taking orders from some Tumblr blog’s mascot. Though you’ll need to have reached The Hall of Darkness (6th Maze) to access the quest, if you’re not at that point yet, you’ll have this whole weekend to fight your way there! :oP
I was supposed to post this forever ago, I know, but at least more of you will have played enough of the game to be able to unlock the quest now! Much thanks to @oliviactually and @kamiwoo for their help.
