Update: Bumped to the top. These covers can now be pre-ordered on Play-Asia. Amazon is also now taking pre-orders for the following Switch PowerA Hybrid Cover:


Original: All sorts of companies are stepping in to create accessories for Switch. KeysFactory is the latest one to be involved, and its lineup was announced today.

Perhaps the highlight here is a front cover protecting the Switch screen releasing in Japan on April 20. Other accessories include screen protectors, Joy-Con covers, a pouch, case, and game card holder. Amazon Japan is listing them all here.

Amazon UK is again taking pre-orders for the grey Switch system. If you’re interested, place an order here. Also worth noting, Super Bomberman R is now available to reserve.

Similar to that of the Wii U GamePad, the Switch Joy-Con has a notification feature. When a notification is received, the Home button on the Joy-Con lights up. You’ll probably be getting notices about game releases, updates, and more from Nintendo over time.

Much of what we’ve heard thus far regarding Switch and online features has been tied to the upcoming mobile app. When it comes to managing friends though, you’ll be able to do that on the system itself.

Nintendo UK’s specifications page for Switch confirms this piece of information directly. On the Home Menu, users will be able to “start games and select game settings”, manage friends and user accounts, and access system settings.

Choice Provisions is back with another Runner3 blog update. This time around, we’re able to listen to some music from series composer Matt Harwood.

While it has a chance of being updated slightly before Runner3 is finished, we’re able to listen to the first-ever song from the game. It’ll be played in Foodland, one of the various worlds you’ll encounter.
