Zen Pinball spoke about a performance patch for Pinball FX3 on Switch a few months ago. The plan was to get the game running at 60 frames per second during portable play, and to hopefully increase docked resolution to 1080p.
We haven’t heard about the update since then, and it sounds like Zen Studios has pulled the plug on those original plans. Community representative Gabor Hajdu passed along the following note to one fan:

Detective Pikachu now roughly three times longer compared to original 2016 Japanese release
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
This month’s launch of Detective Pikachu technically isn’t the first time that the game will be available. Initially, it had a release on the Japanese 3DS eShop back in 2016.
Now Nintendo is bringing out Detective Pikachu worldwide, including a physical version in all regions. Compared to the 2016 edition, significant content has been added in. Whereas the Japanese eShop version had three chapters, the final game contains nine. That means Detective Pikachu should be about three times longer than it originally was.

One of the notable discoveries made with the datamine for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp’s latest update is a Super Mario crossover event. Nintendo has now started to tease this on the game’s official Japanese Twitter account. A short while ago, the image above was sent out.
Nintendo hasn’t said when the event will be starting. However, March 10 – which is Mario Day – would certainly make a lot of sense.
