A few days ago, we had heard that Nintendo France banned Hero from the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate European Team Cup. Now, however, that decision has been reversed.

Nintendo has said in a statement that it will standardize rulesets for all tournaments on the European Team Cup circuit following the French qualifiers’s deviation. As part of that, Hero can be used going forward. The character had been eligible in other regions for the same tournament.

Dragon Quest XI S is finally launching on Switch tomorrow. It’s been a long time coming, as we’ve known about the game ever since the console was given its NX code name. There weren’t too many that knew what the Switch actually was at the time – including some of the top developers at Square Enix.

During today’s Dragon Quest XI S Channel: Countdown Special live stream, the developers discussed Dragon Quest XI S’s long journey to Switch. Late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, before his passing, had conversations with them about the hardware, and revealed its hybrid ability of being able to play at home or on the go. Other crucial information like the system’s name were still under wraps.

Some might be curious why Dragon Quest XI S was announced so early, and why it was made known before the Switch was unveiled. We can thank Iwata for that, as it was a request of his for the RPG to appear on Nintendo’s new platform. The developers said in the stream that they’ve now delivered on their promise to bring Dragon Quest XI S to Switch.
