Over on the North American and European stores, Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP is listed for release on November 30. The Australian eShop has it down for one day later – December 1.

Usually most of the major news about figures comes out of Wonder Festival, but we do have a few updates from WonHobby Gallery 2018 Autumn. The event took place in Akihabara, Tokyo this weekend where fans were treated to looks at upcoming Nintendo products and more.

Rumor: Aonuma teases Zelda: Skyward Sword for Switch during Japanese concert
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda: Concert 2018 kicked off in Japan this week. Normally you wouldn’t expect any sort of major news from that type of event, but something noteworthy did in fact happen.
Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma reportedly appeared at the concert this weekend. Based on messages from fans who attended and posted on social media, Aonuma said: “We know what you are thinking, Skyward Sword on Switch, right?” That prompted the audience to clap and cheer.
Nintendo has been bringing the 3D Zelda games to new systems one by one, so a new release of Skyward Sword would make sense. Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask hit 3DS while Wind Waker and Twilight Princess landed on Wii U. Could Skyward Sword on Switch be next?
