It’s a festivus miracle

OhStyle Savvy. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. One… two… three… the fourth entry in Nintendo’s fashion empire builder,Style Savvy: Styling Star, was announced just a few weeks ago for release in Japan and Europe in the last set of Nintendo Directs to feature 3DS content. Fans in North America were left in limbo on whether or not we’d even get the game, with support for the 3DS starting to wane. But limbo no more. It has been confirmedStyling Starwill hit the 3DS eShop on Christmas Day.

The prime gimmick ofStyling Staris… well… styling stars. We’ll be performing makeovers on up-and-coming starlets with more than 20,000 different fashion items. Apparently, how we style them will also affect their storyline. This can either be really in-depth or simply skin deep, but it’ll be neat to see just how much damage I can do to some of these girls. I mean, how wonderful would it be to absolutely destroy an actress’s career by pulling aFelicityhaircut on her?
