“Karaoke JOYSOUND for Nintendo Switch”, as the name implies, is a karaoke game for Nintendo’s latest system. Currently, it’s only available on the Japanese eShop. The game is free to download, but to actually sing the songs you need to buy tickets that will let you access them for a given period of time.

The game features a video variety of songs – and it just added a few more that might be of interest to Nintendo fans. Specifically, six songs from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 are now available: “Drifting Soul” and “One Last You”, sung by Jen Bird, and four songs by Anúna, Ireland’s national choir: “Our Eternal Land”, “Shadow of the Lowlands”, “We Are the Chosen Ones” and “Ever Come to an End”.

We’ve known for a while now that WWE 2K19 wouldn’t be coming to Switch, but an official statement has come out from Take-Two giving a little bit of reasoning behind this decision:

“The game will not be available on Nintendo Switch. 2K is focused on making the best possible experience for WWE 2K fans and will continue evaluating all opportunities to deliver the franchise across additional platforms.”

It’s likely that WWE 2K18’s poor launch on Switch influenced this decision, as Take-Two probably did not want to provide an equally mediocre experience for players. The last WWE game to launch on a Nintendo console was 2K13, so there’s always hope for a revival sometime in the future.
