All-Star Fruit Racing might be in development for Switch. Earlier this month, it was rated for release in Brazil. PQube will apparently be publishing, and as they’ve given quite a bit of support to Switch thus far, putting All-Star Fruit Racing on the system would make sense.

If the name didn’t give it away, All-Star Fruit Racing is a karting title. The game has single-player and multiplayer modes, including online multiplayer.

Here’s some additional information and a trailer:

A new firmware update for Switch has just gone live. Version 5.0.0 is out now for all users.

Today’s update doesn’t feature anything quite as big as version 4.0.0 in which support for video capture was added, but there are some additions and changes. These include Facebook and Twitter friends suggestions, new ARMS and Kirby avatars, and more. Nintendo also fixed the glitch with Play Activity. 

You can find the full details on today’s update below.

Atari intends to be present at the Game Developers Conference next week. Announced just recently, Switch will be featured in the company’s lineup.

Aside from RollerCoaster Tycoon, it also sounds like Atari Flashback Classics will be making its way to Switch. Atari’s titles for Nintendo’s console will be distributed by partners from Christmas 2018.

Thus far, two volumes of Atari Flashback Classics have been released on other platforms containing 50 titles each, with another one planned. It’s unclear if Switch will be getting the first edition or all three volumes (or something else entirely such as a bundle). We may learn more when GDC 2018 takes place between March 19 and March 23.

Thanks to AwesomePlatter for the tip.

Here’s the GIF in question:
