"Eden: It's an Endless World" Manga Returns to North America After Almost Three Years

Hiroki Endo's violent sci-fi manga Eden: It's an Endless World ended its Japanese run 2008. It's critically acclaimed. It made the New York Time's best seller list. However, the last time Dark Horse released a volume was August 31st, 2011. Finally, the next volume has been solicted.

Endo and Attack on Titan's Hajime Isayama have more than a bit of mutual admiration, and it doesn't hurt that Endo's follow up to Eden, All Rounder Meguru is built around the Isayama's subject of mixed martial arts.

Nintendo Offers Solution To Widely Reported "Pokemon X/Y" Save Glitch

After wide-ranging reports in the past week, Nintendo has formally acknowledged the save glitch that is present in both digital and physical copies of Pokemon X/Y affecting players that save within the confines of Luminose City while playing the game. Below, Nintendo's complete statement.

"Pokémon X" Cover Monster Xerneas Creeps into "Super Smash Bros."

The official Super Smash Bros. website has been updated with another daily pic, and while this one shows a grinning Pikachu, it also offers a not-so-sly hint at another Pokémon that will be making an appearance.

Unless that's a stylin' tail extension for Pikachu below, Pokémon X cover monster Xerneas will be popping into the new Super Smash Bros., maybe to wreak havoc after busting out of a Pokéball, provide some stage-related mayhem, or just strut about and look elegant.

Super Smash Bros. is getting ready to rumble on Nintendo 3DS and Wii U in 2014.
