Nintendo sent out a demo for the BoxBoy! series on the Japanese 3DS eShop today, including a taste of Goodbye! BoxBoy! (launching next week). Check out some footage below.

Psyonix, the developer of Rocket League, has expressed interest in Switch. However, the team isn’t committing to the console just yet.

A note from Psyonix reads passed along by reader Matthew M reads:

“We are excited as you are regarding the release of Nintendo Switch however, we don’t have enough information at this time if it will happen. For the mean time, let’s both keep our fingers crossed that it will. For all the latest information on upcoming releases, updates, and other news, please visit the Rocket League Facebook page or follow us on Twitter!”

This actually isn’t the first time Psyonix has spoken about its interest in Switch. They did so when it was known as NX as well.

A few new 3DS themes are out now in Japan. Here’s the lineup:

Kunio-kun theme – 100 yen
12-Sai ~Love Diary~ (x3) – 200 yen each or 500 yen for the set

The 3DS version of Elliot Quest has taken longer than expected. It was originally planned for last year, but it sort of fell off the map since the original announcement. However, a tweet from creator Luis Zuno confirms that it’s still happening.

Zuno shared a brief look at Elliot Quest running on 3DS earlier today. Additionally, he says it’s releasing “very soon.”

The full tweet is as follows:

Three more games are heading to Switch for the console’s launch. World of Goo, Little Inferno, and Human Resource Machine will all be out on March 3.

World of Goo previously ended up on Wii, while Little Inferno and Human Resource Machine were originally made for Wii U. New to the Switch versions is a Soundtrack Mode. Here, “players can explore Kyle Gabler’s wonderfully bizarre music in this special mode”.

For those who haven’t heard about these titles previously, here’s a look at each one:

Bombservice created the very well-received Metroidvania game Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight last year. Unfortunately, it won’t be on Switch, but the game’s developer has expressed interest in bringing over future games.

When asked about the possibility of Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight heading to Nintendo’s new console, Bombservice said:

“To be completely honest with you, there are no plans right now. The first reason is because we are busy porting the game to other platforms. And the second reason is that we don’t have any access to the tools to make a Switch version of the game. It might not even be possible without remaking the entire game in another engine.

This is assuming you are talking about Momodora RUtM. For future games, I’d love to bring them to the Switch!”

Thanks to Matthew M for the tip.
