Siliconera has discovered that back in May 2017, Nintendo filed a US patent… that was an update to another patent for a passive walking apparatus designed to carry things. The interesting part?

Trinelogy rated for Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
The first Trine came to Switch a couple of months ago. Its two sequels are also planned for the near future, with the currently-in-development fourth title on the way.
Additionally, just a couple of days ago, Trinelogy was rated for Switch by PEGI. While we technically don’t have confirmation on what this is, it’s likely a bundle of the first three Trine titles as this product is available on Steam. What would be interesting to see is if Frozenbyte offered a physical version or if it’s only a digital release.
Frozenbyte has not yet provided release dates for Trine 2 and Trine 3 on Switch.
