Culdcept Begins was just announced for Switch 2 and Switch during a Nintendo Direct last week, and a physical release has been confirmed.

Splatoon received a version 11.0.1 update just a few days ago, fixing a couple issues with the game’s controls and multiplayer. As it turns out, Nintendo revealed that a couple of weapon balance changes were accidentally thrown into the update as well.
Nintendo has decided to not to remove the additional changes, as they were meant to arrive in an upcoming update. It should also be noted that these additional balance patches won’t be found in the original 11.0.1 update patch notes.

Following the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’re putting together a complete list of Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release.
This is a new approach to physical media, which has seen a mixed reaction. In a way, it’s a hybrid between a true physical release and a download code. Each box comes with a cartridge, but there’s nothing really included. Rather than coming with all content, you’ll need to download the game first. After that you don’t need to connect online, but you need to insert the card each time you play.
For those looking for a complete list of all games included and supported in Nintendo Music, that’s where this post comes in.

Thousands of games are currently available on Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
