Update 2: Video backup added below.


Update: Bandai Namco has taken down the trailer, but it should be back up later today. For now, here’s an image of Jiren and Videl:


Original: Today, Bandai Namco revealed FighterZ Pass 2 for Dragon Ball FighterZ. New characters are on the way, including Jiren, Videl, Broly (DBS), and Gogeta (SSGSS).

A couple of things are happening in the world of Nintendo within the next few days. Two deadlines are just around for corner.

If you’ve bought the physical version of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, now is your last chance to register the game on My Nintendo for free Piranha Plant DLC. Again, you need to do so by January 31. Nintendo will email you a code to redeem the DLC for future use a bit after the game has been registered. If you bought the digital version, no further action is needed.

Also, on January 30, the Wii Shop Channel is closing for good. Nintendo already removed the ability to add Wii Points last year, but if you have any extra points lying around, you’ll need to spend them before January 30. This move is also accompanied by the end of remaining video-on-demand services on Wii.

If there’s one thing that’s remained consistent about Switch since its launch in March 2017, it’s the fact that Hamster has prepared at least one new NeoGeo game on a weekly basis. But after nearly two years, the streak has come to an end. You may have missed it, but there was no NeoGeo title on the eShop this week. There was a new entry in the Arcade Archives series though – that being Bomb Jack.

There are currently just over 100 NeoGame games out on Switch currently. Hamster hasn’t said it’s done with NeoGeo games, so perhaps we’ll see a return this week.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
