Update: We’ve learned some new details about the game thanks to Gematsu. The Switch version will feature over 100 songs, including ones that weren’t present in the smartphone version. The game will launch in March in Japan for a price of 2,314 Yen.

A new Switch game was just revealed via Famitsu – Voez, a rhythm game developed by Flyhigh Works, in which you get to play various songs and get to experience the lives of the six youthful members that make up the titular band. The game is actually not new, but seems to be a port of a smartphone game that was released a while ago. According to Famitsu, development on the game is 99% complete, so it’ll likely be released fairly soon. While it has only been announced for Japan at the moment, the smartphone version also has English language support, so a Western release does not seem unlikely.

The Nintendo Account website got a minor facelift and some new features today in preparation for the launch of the Nintendo Switch next week. Generally, the website looks a lot cleaner now with less settings and features stuck together in one category.

Some of the new & updated features include:

• You can now change the language of the Nintendo Account website without having to change your country of residence in the settings
• Parental Controls: create an account with restricted features for a child, such as a spending limit and age-based purchase restrictions on the eShop
• Account Activity: See a list of purchases associated with your account. If you linked your NNID with your Nintendo Account, your digital 3DS and Wii U games will show up here.
• Friend Suggestions: This feature lets you connect with friends across multiple Nintendo Account linked services by providing friend recommendations in one service based on your existing friends in another service. This currently only works with Nintendo’s mobile games, but not with the Wii U and 3DS.

The official Japanese website for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was updated today with profiles of some of the characters that appear in the game. Other than Link and Zelda and the generic Bokoblin and Guardian enemies, there are also profiles for three of the characters that were first seen in the latest trailer shown at the Switch reveal last month. We already got some info on them in Famitsu a couple of weeks ago and their profiles on the website don’t really reveal anything new, but we do get some nice high-resolution artwork of them, plus their official English names (or at the very least, the official romanization of their Japanese names). The Goron warrior is known as Daruk, the Rito archer is called Revali and the Zora girl is known as Mipha. Check out the artwork in the gallery below:

In February of last year, CoroCoro published a special Splatoon manga chapter for free online to celebrate the release of the regular Splatoon manga that started running in Bessatsu CoroCoro Comic around that time. Now, a year later, a second chapter of the manga is available for free online. You can read it here – in Japanese, naturally.

Shortly after its release last year, people started tinkering with the NES Classic to see what else it could be besides play the 30 pre-installed games.    Last month, intrepid hackers managed to get additional 30 NES games to run on the machine. Now, some hackers managed to take it quite a bit farther.

As the video below shows, the NES Classic is apparently capable of running Nintendo 64 games. The actual performance varies greatly from game to game, but it’s a pretty impressive feat nonetheless.
