When Nintendo puts out Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on Switch before the end of the month, it will be accompanied by a new guide. Like the original book for Wii U, it’s being handled by Prima.

The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe guide promises full coverage of all tracks, including the locations of every coin, item block, and shortcut. You’ll also be given lessons in “the best tactics for item use, gliders, underwater racing, motorbikes, and more.” Prima’s book is also updated with “tips and strategies” for the new Battle Mode and all DLC.

The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe guide is available on Amazon here. A free code will be included to access the eGuide.

Thanks to Wagner C for the tip.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an extremely open game. You can approach the world through many different means, and access areas with original approaches. One section of the map, however, does require you to enter in a specific way your first time through (and again in the future unless you warp there specifically). If you’ve played the game, chances are you know which place we’re referring to.

Zelda: Breath of the Wild has amazed us once again, as Twitter user Swiffy22 managed to come up with an ingenious way of bypassing the natural entrance. A weapon, tree log, Stasis, and the paraglider were the only things used here. Just to be extra safe with spoilers, we’ve posted the video after the break.

The SNES landed on the market over 26 years ago. Since then, many new gaming platforms have passed on by. But now the SNES is seeing new life with Unholy Night: The Darkness Hunter – an entirely new release on the system this year.

Unholy Night: The Darkness Hunter is a 3D fighter made by former SNK staffers. It’s packed with Story, Versus, Survival, and Practice Modes. Up to two players are supported.

Unholy Night: The Darkness Hunter is up for pre-order on Amazon here. It’s listed with a June 19 release date. We’re not sure if it’s temporary, but the title should be out this year.
