Nintendo has shared new details about its plans for E3 2018. Specifically, we have information regarding ticket reservations to play Smash Bros. Switch.

Those who stop by the show will be able to choose from two different options. You’ll be able to reserve a ticket to play against people casually “for fun” or play “for glory” in competitive elimination match.

If you bring your Switch system with you, and if you’re spotted by Nintendo or around the Los Angeles Convention Center, you’ll be given an exclusive, collectible Switch pin while supplies last. Nintendo says it’s a “one-of-a-kind swag”.

Speed Brawl

Kongregate today announced a partnership with Double Stallion on the anime-inspired 2D combat-racer Speed Brawl. The game is launching on Switch this summer.

Speed Brawl “throws players into a balletic symphony of lightning-quick combat through the dank locales of a dystopian London in an all-out bloodsport.” Kongregate says the game “captures the humor and over-the-top action from over three decades of cult classic cinema.”

We have more information about Speed Brawl below, along with a teaser.

WWE 2K18

The team behind WWE 2K18 apparently isn’t done patching the Switch version. A new Switch update, version 1.0.4, has gone out for all players.

We’re unlikely to receive any official patch notes from 2K. However, there are some user reports floating around that freezing issues may have been addressed. We’ll report back with any additional findings, assuming there are any.
