The Super Famicom – where we know of it here as the SNES – celebrated its 25th anniversary last year. But in North America, the console has today reached the same milestone. It’s worth taking a moment to remember the SNES and it’s many standout games – Super Mario World, Zelda: A Link to the Past, and Super Metroid just to name a few.

Even though the date hadn’t been officially set in stone, Quest of Dungeons looked to be on track for September 1 (at least in Europe). However, Upfall Studios has now decided to move the game to a currently-unspecified date.

The developer posted on Twitter earlier today:

When a final release date for Quest of Dungeons is shared, we’ll have it right here.

As we’ve known for quite some time, Image & Form has no plans to end the SteamWorld series. New games will continue to be made, and it seems we have a name (even if it’s tentative) for the next entry. “SteamWorld Quest” was spotted in an official document published on the Creative Europe website.

It’s obviously too soon for Image & Form to be talking about the project, as it hasn’t been extremely long since SteamWorld Heist wrapped up, and it’s still getting support.

Image & Form community manager Julius Guldbog said of the finding:

“Look at that! We’ll share more about our next game when the time is right. It’s so deep in its initial stage that there’s no point in talking about it.”

Pokemon GO’s popularity has been taken to another level thanks to some craziness in Taiwan. On Saturday, what looks like thousands of players went into a frenzy after Snorlax appeared.

A video spotted by TIME shows the chaos. While it’s unverified, Chinese media reports indicate that the Xinbeitou district has become a daily focus for “thousands” of players looking to catch Pokemon. The civil-defense brigade has had to be called in, plus police reinforcements from neighboring areas.

Shin’en launched FAST Racing Neo on the Wii U eShop last year. Several months later, it’s not only receiving a retail version, but also brand new downloadable content.

Martin Sauter from Shin’en explained to Nintendo World Report at Gamescom last week why the studio ended up pursuing DLC. He said:

“I said from the start we would love to support FAST Racing NEO in the future. We were discussing it in the office, and it was totally clear that when the game came out and the reception was good that we’d keep working on that. We started fixing issues, adding minimaps, adding stuff we found, it was pretty clear we wanted to go with DLC, make something because the demand was so heated. We were asked if there were new tracks coming, Nintendo approached us and asked “Is there interest in a physical release”.”

FAST Racing Neo’s DLC will encompass 8 new tracks, 10 new vehicles, and 18 new audio tracks.
