Devil’s Third director says panned Wii U game was innovative for its time
Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Devil’s Third went through a bit of a rollercoaster during its development. Originally, THQ was slated to publish the game and it wasn’t even planned for Nintendo platforms at the time. But after THQ went bankrupt, South Korean company Doobic picked up the project. Doobic ended up going out of business itself, and eventually, Nintendo stepped in to handle it.
Whether it was because of the change in partners or another reason, Devil’s Third didn’t turn out well even though it initially seemed to be a potentially interesting Wii U exclusive. But now in 2025, director Tomonobu Itagaki has reflected on the title, feeling that it “was innovative for a game of its time”.

A new list is available outlining Nintendo Switch games that automatically run at 1080p on Switch 2 in handheld mode.
With the previous system, titles would always try to hit the native 720p resolution for portable play when possible. When you run them on Nintendo Switch 2, that’s usually the resolution you’ll get. However, a few actually go beyond the limit, and will run at 1080p automatically – in other words, you don’t need to download any patches.
Here’s the full list:

Totaka’s Song, which has been an Easter egg in Nintendo games going back decades, has been found in Mario Kart World.
The Easter egg originally snuck in by Nintendo sound designer Kazumi Totaka.

Now it’s here in Mario Kart World as well.

Nintendo and Amazon end their feud, first-party Switch 2 games and more now available
Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch 2 | 0 comments
After another long standoff between Nintendo and Amazon, the two sides are finally working together once again.
For whatever reason, over the past year or so, it has been impossible to purchase anything sold directly by Nintendo – at least if you’re in the United States. That means the Nintendo Switch 2 console itself, recently-released and upcoming titles like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, and even new amiibo were unavailable on Amazon. Neither side commented on the situation, leaving fans to wonder why they could purchase or pre-order many of Nintendo’s products.
