Official Pokémon Shirts Come in Styles for All 151 Original Pokémon
Japanese apparel maker Original Stitch showed off its new collection of dress shirts based on the original 151 Pokémon that first debuted in Pokémon Red and Blue.
Check out the gallery below:
These 151 dress shirts, created in collaboration with The Pokémon Company, are a dream come true for businessmen and women who are still bug catchers at heart. The dress shirts are designed so that they look formal on the surface, but a closer look reveals sweet Pokémon-based patterns.
From Pikachu taking a nap on Snorlax’s giant belly to Cubone in cute sprites, the arrangement offers a wide variety of interesting designs. At least, a peek at the official website (Japanese) made me wanna buy ’em all!

Who Is Now Making Metroid Prime 4 at Retro Studios?
Earlier today, Nintendo announced work on Metroid Prime 4 would be starting "from the beginning," with development duties being handed back to original trilogy developer Retro Studios. With the development clock reset, the wait for the series' already-long-awaited fourth entry has presumably been multiplied, leading to widespread disappointment among increasingly impatient fans.
Despite the disappointment, many seem to be taken with Nintendo's transparency and excited by the thought of the series going back to Retro. And while the prospect of that homecoming is understandably exciting, it's been over a decade since Retro last released a Metroid Prime game, which raises an important question: Exactly who is taking over development of Metroid Prime 4?

GameStop Cancels Kingdom Hearts 3 PS4 Pro Preorders After Stock Issue
GameStop has begun to cancel preorders for the limited edition Kingdom Hearts 3 PlayStation 4 Pro, just ahead of the game's release.
In a post on Twitter (which can be seen below), the retailer said it oversold the console and, as a result, some of the preorders are being canceled. The post went on to say those with their preorders canceled will receive a $25 gift certificate.

Metroid Prime 4 and Other Games That Rebooted and Passed Hands
Earlier today, Nintendo announced that development on Metroid Prime 4 was restarting from the beginning and that Retro Studios, the developer behind the original Metroid Prime trilogy of games, would be helping with development. While this is surprising news, it’s hardly the first time a game has started development under one team or director and been rebooted and developed by another.
We decided to take a stroll down development hell memory lane and compile a list of seven games that have famously been rebooted and passed hands during development.
