The latest episode of Nintendo Minute has gone live. In today’s video, Kit and Krysta show off their islands in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Check out the full episode below.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition

If someone would have told you a couple of years ago that The Witcher 3 would eventually be on Switch, there’s a good chance that you may not have believed them. Before the game was announced, many people thought that such a port would be simply impossible. Yet Saber Interactive managed to make it work, bringing the entire experience to Nintendo’s console and on a single game cartridge to boot.

During NVIDIA’s GPU Technology Conference, Saber Interactive’s Roman Lebedev delivered a presentation all about the Switch version of The Witcher 3. Lebedev went into detail regarding CPU, memory and build size optimizations and tradeoffs made during development.

Below are some of the highlights:

Deadpool has appeared in Fortnite as one of the shooter’s latest collaborations. The Marvel character has shown up with a special skin, available to everyone who purchased this season’s battle pass.

Find two pistols hidden in the menu screens in order to unlock the skin. After that, enter a match and change into the Deadpool skin at any of the phone booths on the island.

Aside from the skin, players can unlock Deadpool’s katanas and more. The game is also featuring a Deadpool party boat, which was transformed from the yacht in the northeastern part of the map.

Mario fans in North and South America will need to wait a bit longer to get their hands on Levi’s new clothing and accessories collection. Due to the coronavirus, there have been “slight product delays”.

Levi’s hasn’t said when we can expect to see the Super Mario line in those two regions. However, given the wording, it sounds like there won’t be a massively long wait.

We have more information about the Levi’s x Super Mario collection here.

The latest episode of Nintendo Power podcast is now live. For the latest episode, host Chris Slate is joined by Bill Hutchens and Kristen Copeland from Nintendo Treehouse, and Anthony Foster from the social media team at Nintendo of America to discuss their first two weeks with Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Here’s the full episode:

Nintendo Switch

Switch is starting to become tough to find around the world, but it’s becoming an issue particularly in Japan. With the coronavirus causing delays, the main system is in short supply, so many consumers have been turning to the Switch Lite instead. However, even that dedicated portable device is starting to be hit by a lack of stock.

Nintendo commented on the situation back in February. At the time, the company said that there could be shipping delays.
