The first entry in the Toki Tori series is making its way to Switch. Even better, it’s just a few days away.

Nintendo’s North American website lists Toki Tori for March 16. Pricing is set at $4.99. Along with HD Rumble, video capture will be supported.

We have more information about Toki Tori below.

Last month, we heard that Oh… Sir! The Hollywood Roast had been pulled from the North American Switch eShop. Now Good Shephard Entertainment has clarified why.

As we’ve seen with a few titles in the past, the game’s removal can be attributed to a ratings update.Good Shephard Entertainment confirmed on Twitter:


It’s been over a month since Oh… Sir! The Hollywood Roast was removed, so we assume it won’t be much longer until it returns.

Thanks to James M for the tip.

A new round of data is in from the UK that shows the top 20 best-selling games for 2017.

Before getting into the actual chart, we’ll point out a couple of things. First, thanks to Switch, video game pricing rose last year by 2.5% to £33.47. Additionally, 16% of all boxed games were sold on Nintendo platforms.

We have the full chart below. Note that unlike most companies, digital sales for Nintendo titles are not included in the total.

Undertale, a massively successful RPG from Toby Fox, was announced for Switch during this week’s Nintendo Direct. The reveal was very short though, and we only heard that it would be released “eventually”.

If you had any concerns about Undertale missing a 2018 launch on Switch, you don’t have to worry any longer. We now have confirmation that it’s arriving sometime this year. It’s far from a specific release window, but it’s certainly better than “eventually”.

A couple of weeks ago, SEGA hosted a 24-hour live stream for its Gameblast 2018 charity event. As part of that, Bayonetta voice actress Hellena Taylor stopped by for a good hour, and fans were able to ask all sorts of questions.

Taylor did actually talk about Bayonetta 3 briefly, but she didn’t have much to say – and there’s a good reason for that. Taylor said on the record that she hasn’t been asked to reprise her role just yet. This could be because, based on her estimation, the game is “quite early in the development”. Taylor believes she’ll eventually be asked back. Note that when she is asked to voice the role of Bayonetta again, Taylor mentioned that she won’t be able to say she’s involved with the game.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

New sales data is in from the UK for the month of February.

Even though the month was slow, February 2018 was actually more successful for boxed games retailers than the year prior. Software sales increased to 1.2 million games sold while revenue generated from these games rose 6% to £36.5 million.

We can thank Switch for the increase, as the console accounted for 14.5% of all the games sold last month. Also, Nintendo placed second in the publisher rankings with a 13.3% share of the market. In 2017, Wii U had a 1.8% share of the market, and Nintendo was the fourth-ranked publisher.

For folks on Amazon Germany, everything is pretty much up here. On Amazon UK, Crash Bandicoot is here and South Park is here.
