Mobile, App And Nintendo News: A Metroid-Tastic Follow-Up On AM2R, 'Taekwondo Game Global Tournament' Adds New Feature To Gameplay, And Niantic Makes Pathetic Attempt To Explain Tracker Shutdown

Thursdays are your day for mobile games, apps and Nintendo! We love
our handhelds and the opportunity to play games anywhere, and we
bet you do, too! How about we start things off with a little
'Metroid' news! You can't go wrong with that! AM2R Gets An
Un-Official Update Anyone who saw this 'Metroid'' game launch on
Aug 6 knows that it was sealed up by Nintendo's legal team soon
after in an attempt to stop people from playing. But, ah...the
power of the Internet! Links had been saved, shared and followed by
that time, keeping AM2R alive! Tune in this episode to get an
update on the game that's sticking it to Nintendo and still being
played by fans! Important Addition For 'Taekwondo Game Global
Tournament' If you're interested in getting a quick fighting game
fix, 'Taekwondo Game Global Tournament' might just be for you! And
now that it's received an official endorsement from the World
Taekwondo Federation, those who love the sport will be glad to know
it's authentic. An update has just been released that adds
something more to the gameplay that fans of the genre will
appreciate! Rad has the scoop! Niantic Is Talking, But Is Anyone
Listening Anymore? Niantic reports that Pokémon Go is as strong as
ever, but maybe they just mean Asia? OK, seriously folks. The truth
is, there has been a steady decline that no one, (not even Niantic)
can ignore. Fans were waiting since launch for things to be fixed,
explained and delivered as promised.....and it seems that the
clumps of people wandering the streets have moved onto something
else. Niantic is now attempting to explain why they shut down
Pokémon Go maps and trackers and have even started unbanning some
users. Our fearless, die-hard gamer podcast host Radnor will be
discussing both of these announcements (and his theories, of
course) during our episode.   In addition to these excellent
news items, Rad will be talking about the exciting announcements
from Square Enix ahead of the Tokyo Game Show, a pinball RPG Final
Fantasy XV spin-off that's available now, details on the 'New
Galaxy Style' Nintendo 3DS XL, a special, limited-time mystery gift
for owners of Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire' or 'Pokémon X/Y',
and a popular dev team that's shutting down after 10 years
together! It's all in this episode of Geekly Download!
