Earlier this week, a demo Sonic Forces was published on Switch. The thing is, it’s only up on the Japanese eShop. And that’s where it will stay.

SEGA’s Aaron Webber commented on the demo situation during a live stream yesterday. It was confirmed that there are no plans to release it in either North America or Europe.

With Super Mario Odyssey launching today, the first update has already gone live. Version 1.0.1 is now available.

We can say that the launch update isn’t anything too speculator. “Several fixes have been made to enhance the user’s experience,” Nintendo says in its update notes.

We’ll have to see how often Super Mario Odyssey is updated in the future. Nintendo will want to address any small issues (if there are any), but this isn’t a game like Splatoon 2 or ARMS in which there will be somewhat frequent patches.

Thanks to Cameron for the tip.

We previously mentioned that Nintendo was taking Mario across the United States to celebrate the launch of Super Mario Odyssey. things culminated in New York City last night at Rockefeller Plaza.

The first big part of the celebration was an elaborate dance number set to the tune of the “Jump Up, Super Star!” song from the game. The event also had visits from the Mario costumed character and actor and singer Jordan Fisher, the chance to play Super Mario Odyssey, fans purchasing the game at midnight at the Nintendo NY store, and an appearance from Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime.

Have a look at some photos from last night’s launch event below.
