Ahead of today’s Nintendo Direct, Japanese retailer Rakuten Books has leaked several details regarding Mario Tennis Aces. The store page has since been taken down, though we suspect it’ll go live again after the Direct. You can see the game’s Japanese boxart above; Rakuten also listed the game’s release date as June 22nd. Some screenshots could also be found on the store page, which revealed several new playable characters. Head past the break to find out more.

A possible port of Diablo 3 on Nintendo Switch has been the source of much speculation lately. Some fans interpreted a certain tweet by Blizzard as a tease for a Switch port of Diablo, but Blizzard quickly clarified that that wasn’t their intention and that they had “nothing to announce”.

Today, Eurogamer has come forward with a report, claiming that Diablo 3 for Switch is in the works after all, according to their sources. Any further details were not disclosed, such as a release date or whether or not this port would include the Reaper of Souls and Rise of the Necromancer expansions.

As always, take reports like this with a grain of salt. Eurogamer has been spot-on with several of their reports, but they weren’t always right. We will just have to wait and see if anything comes of this.
