Le Monde published a new interview with Nintendo’s Shinya Takahashi today. Takahashi discussed Switch shortages and how the production line has now improved, possible future collaborations, how Super Mario Odyssey’s innovation will come from the use of HD Rumble, and more. Takahashi was even asked about the futures of Wave Race and 1080°.

We’ve rounded up the more notable comments from Takahashi below. Note that the responses were translated with Google, so it’s a bit rough around the edges. Still, you should be able to get a pretty decent idea as to what was said.

At the Zelda Masterclass panel at Japan Expo in Paris, it was revealed that more Zelda behind-the-scenes books will be making their way to the West.

First up is Hyrule Encyclopedia, which is an extensive visual guide to the world of The Legend of Zelda, containing tons of art and information about the various items, enemies, locations etc across the series. It is currently set to be released in September in France, though we’d be surprised if it wasn’t released at the same time in other countries and languages.

A new Pokemon scan has emerged for Takara Tomy A.R.T.S battle products promoting an Ultra Beast line. That wouldn’t be noteworthy in most instances, but a mystery addition is to the right of Silvally in the image above. Some are speculating that this could be a brand new addition or form for the series that will be featured in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon.

News about Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon has been absent since the original announcement last month. With E3 out of the way and the two games a few months out, hopefully we’ll hear more soon.
