Earlier today, Shigeru Miyamoto delivered the keynote address at the 2018 Computer Entertainment Developers Conference. It was here that we heard Miyamoto praising Minecraft, among other things.

Kotaku also has a small translation of another topic addressed in Miyamoto’s keynote. The Nintendo developer said that he’s not interested in making an MMORPG due to the business model and not wanting to focus on a single game.

Just a few months ago, Football Manager Touch 2018 made it to Switch. SEGA will be quickly following up with this year’s entry, Football Manager 2019.

Fortunately, there won’t be any sort of delay this time around. Football Manager 2019 is scheduled for November on various platforms, and that includes Switch – so it looks like we could be looking at a near simultaneous launch here.

Pre-registration is now open on the official website here. Tencent will be giving out these bonuses to those who do so: Maloch 7-day Trial Card, Level 3 (Top Level) Arcana Chest, 100 Gems, and a 3-day Double EXP Card.

After a year of relative silence, Morphies Law launched on Switch this week. Cosmoscope already has a patch in the works that will address a number of issues.
