Cosmic Defenders

Cosmic Defenders, Fiery Squirrel’s fast-paced revolving shooter, was originally planned to launch on April 28. But due to “the general slowdown and unique situation we all our experiencing during the current health crisis”, it was bumped back to an unspecified date. Thankfully, the wait won’t end up being terribly long.

Cosmic Defenders has a new release date of June 11. That should apply to all major regions, including North America, Europe, and Japan.

Cosmic Defenders will be the first game as part of the Natsume Indie Program, “which partners the company with independent developers around the world to introduce creative, innovative games to a wider audience.”

Nintendo has put out a statement regarding the death of George Floyd. Floyd, a black man who was already handcuffed, passed away last week after a white Minnesota police officer held his knee against Floyd’s neck for nearly nine minutes.

Understandably, there’s been a lot of unrest since then. Many companies have come forward condemning the situation and have expressed solidarity with the Black community. Nintendo itself has now issued its own statement, which you can find below.


According to data collected by Golden Casino News, Nintendo sold 4.2 million Switch units in March, bringing the console’s lifetime sales up to 55.77 million thus far. Golden Casino News also reports that North America represents the largest portion of these sales at 20.61 million units sold as of May, compared to Europe’s 14.3 million units, and Japan’s 13.4 million.

Nintendo’s Switch software sales have also shared in this success, with the top five selling games being Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with 24.77 million, Super Smash Brothers Ultimate with 18.84 million, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild at 17.41 million, Super Mario Odyssey at 17.41 million, and Pokemon Sword and Shield at 17.37 million.
