The two discussed Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s change in art style, teases pertaining to relations to past Xeno games, the size of the world, how long it’ll be, and Monolith Soft’s future.
You can read Takahashi and Kojima’s comments about these topics below. Game Informer has more with the developers and an in-depth preview of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 here.

It’s been somewhat of a mystery as to when The Champions’ Ballad DLC for Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be launching. The only concrete window Nintendo has given is “Holiday 2017”.
The European Switch eShop seems to have a clearer answer. On a listing for the DLC, Nintendo says that The Champions’ Ballad is planned for December.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s new DLC pack features a new dungeon, an original story, and more new challenges. Hopefully we’ll be getting more details in the weeks ahead.

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
If you try searching for Splasher on the North American Switch eShop, you may not have much longer. The game has been taken down due to a rating issue with the ESRB.
Fortunately, Splasher’s removal is only temporary. While we don’t have a date yet, it’ll be back on the eShop in the near future.
We had an age rating issue due to some changes in the ESRB policy … the game will be back soon (no date yet).
