The Little Dragons Cafe Limited Edition contains the following:

After it was teased last week, pre-orders for the Zelda: Twilight Princess True Form Midna statue have gone live.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

First week sales for the Switch version of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze were reported from Japan this week. Between April 29 and May 3, the game sold nearly 90,000 copies.

That’s a significant increase compared to the original 2014 release. On Wii U, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold just 35,000 copies in its first week.

The sell-through rate is also more favorable. The game sold through 65% of its initial shipment on Switch, according to Dengeki. In contrast, the Wii U version had a sell-through rate of just 35%.

Asura

Dangen Entertainment has confirmed that Asura is being made for Switch. Originally released last year, the action rogue-like set in a fantasy world has since received a free Vengeance Expansion with new features and content. The Switch version should have everything in tact.

A release date for Asura has not yet been determined. Continue on below for a lengthy gameplay overview from Steam as well as a trailer.

It’s expected to appear at this year’s licensing expo between May 22 and May 24. Along with the show on Cartoon Network, Jakks Pacific will apparently be making a toyline.

Here’s a synopsis for the show:
