A few more Nintendo Switch games have been fixed so that they work properly for backwards compatibility on Switch 2.
Earlier this week, we reported separately that NieR: Automata is now in proper order. However, that wasn’t the only game that was fixed up. Several other titles were patched as part of this week’s firmware update, which you can read about here.
The full lineup is as follows:
Today, publisher Kodansha Game Lab and developer Itamae Studio announced Wabisabi SushiDerby for Nintendo Switch. It will be available in Spring 2026.
Wabisabi SushiDerby is said to be the world’s first-ever sushi racing simulation title. Players will raise pixelated sushi to race around the sushi restaurant, and there are multiple types to choose from, each with their own powerups.

A special Legend of Mana art book has been revealed, and pre-orders are now open.
Technically, the book isn’t new in the sense that it previously came to Japan. However, this is the very first time it’s being released in English. Square Enix is teaming up with Dark Horse to bring it over.
Publisher Fireshine Games and developer Pugstorm not only announced that Core Keeper is coming to Nintendo Switch 2, but also a “Void & Voltage” update is in the works. Both will be available January 28, 2026.
Core Keeper will be upping the player count on Nintendo Switch 2 as eight users will be able to play together. On Nintendo Switch, the limit is four. Fans that own the Nintendo Switch version can upgrade to Switch 2 for free.

The full roundup of deals is as follows:
A while back, we wrote a guide on the best Pokemon to use in ranked battles online in Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s second season. Garchomp, Xerneas, and Metagross were all centralizing threats, but now Pokemon has thrown a wrench into the metagame by allowing Zygarde in Season 3’s ranked battles. Theoretically, that means you’ll be seeing a whole lot of Zygarde in high-ranked matches. So if you want to win in Season 3 ranked, a Zygarde counter is an absolute necessity – and while all of Zygarde’s counters crumple in the face of its Complete Form, they can cause it a great deal of trouble before it transforms. There are spoilers afoot in the full guide, so keep that in mind before you continue. On that note, entering ranked battles in general will also spoil you on the same thing, so keep that in mind as well.
