Yesterday, a report published by Emily Rogers suggested that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild wouldn’t be making Switch’s launch in March. Two additional sources are now backing up that claim.

Rogers originally mentioned that Breath of the Wild’s localization would run through the end of the year. She added that the game would then require about four-to-six months of testing. Today, Eurogamer writes that they’ve been “told of the same schedule, as Nintendo is committed to launching the game in as close to perfect a state as possible after so long in development.”

Separately from Eurogamer, Laura Kate Dale of Let’s Play Video Games wrote on Twitter a few hours ago that “Breath of the Wild missing the Switch launch lines up with info I had heard but not multi sourced. Don’t expect it in March.”

Another round of screenshots from Pokemon Sun/Moon are now available. In the gallery below, we’ve rounded up the latest images.

The latest entry in the Touch Battle Tank series is due out on the North American 3DS eShop this week. According to a listing on the digital store, it’s planned for release on November 17. Pricing is set at $3.99.

Here’s an overview:

New tanks! New gimmicks! And two players at the same time! The 3D Tank Battle Game is fuly loaded with new features! Steer your tank with the slide pad whilst intuitively aiming and firing with the touch screen, battles have never been more action packed!

This time there are two tanks, Offensive and Evasive types. The Offensive type can charge up energy to fire off a Barrier Bomb, a special move that not only destroys your enemies but also any bullets they’ve fired! The Evasive Type can use up its energy to hover in the air, dodging all enemy fire whilst being able to fire back itself! It’s invincible!

Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon are just a few days away. A number of retailers are starting to get their promotions in order, including GameStop. Stores across the United States will be open for business at midnight as Friday approaches.

You can find the full lineup of participating GameStops here.
