All over but the catching of Alolan Dugtrio.

The biggest game of the year, let alone this week, hits Friday in North America as Pokémon Sun and Moon drop on 3DS. Between videos, editorials, and a pair of reviews we've covered this game like a Braviary. And as I've braved the large file size to download Sun, I'll see if I can manage to select Popplio before bedtime.
If you've managed to avoid the Pokémania, there are a few options this week. Nikki is back with the release of new 3DS messaging app Swapdoodle. Swap Fire releases Friday as a 5 player shooter with GamePad commentary, or there's a Japanese tutor on Wii U. But most of the action on the Wii U front is in the North American VC releases, where Excitebike 64 makes a super sandwich before Wario Land: Shake It steals it.
Europe has another light week because of no Pokémon - there's an aquarium and a not-that-impressive railroad simulator. The Year of the 3DS RPG has a final aftershock in two weeks though, and the demo for 7th Dragon III Code: VfD is now live for Europe.
