The Town of Light: Deluxe Edition was first announced for Switch two years ago. Our last update came in May and there wasn’t much good news at the time. Along with scrapping a physical version, there were questions as to whether or not the game would actually release at all on Switch.

Thankfully, it seems that The Town of Light: Deluxe Edition will end up on Nintendo’s console after all. An eShop page has appeared, which shows a February 7 release date. It seems we’re just under two weeks out from an official launch.

Here’s some information about The Town of Light: Deluxe Edition as well as trailer:

Reggie Fils-Aime recently appeared on the Present Value podcast. The former Nintendo of America president discussed his time at the Big N in-depth, and at one point, was asked about what companies need to think about when building a brand.

Reggie spoke about Nintendo becoming a powerhouse in the gaming industry and how it was a team effort – specifically a “high-functioning, strong leadership team that disagreed in private but was aligned in public and drove the business forward.” He also discussed an experience he had in which Nintendo of America was taking the company’s well-known logo in different directions to try and appeal to an older demographic. This is when he was first starting out. However, Reggie realized that in order to appeal to a mainstream audience, they needed “to do it based on what the brand stood for, and not doing it in some false way.”

Reggie’s full words:

Update: Capcom’s Yoshinori Ono has confirmed that the tweet was inaccurate. EB Games Canada has also since removed its message.

Original: Could Street Fighter V Champion Edition be coming to Switch? EB Games Canada seems to think so. The retailer tweeted out the news, claiming the game can even be pre-ordered in-store.

Despite what EB Games Canada says, there has been no official announcement from Capcom at this time. That means we’ve either got a mistake on our hands, or the store said something a bit earlier than intended.

Here’s the tweet in question:
