The Switch event is only hours away, but there’s still room for more rumors. Emily Rogers previously reported on some of the upcoming content for Mario Kart on Switch, and she is now stating that the Mario Kart 8 port will feature at least 16 new tracks. She also states that one of the Switch titles that was rumored to be a Wii U port is actually not a port, though she does not clarify which.

The Wolf Link amiibo could finally be seeing a standalone release in North America. An entry has now appeared in Target’s inventory system, showing a price point of $15.99.

The only way to obtain Wolf Link at the moment is by purchasing the Zelda: Twilight Princess HD bundle. If Nintendo shares official news about offering the amiibo separately, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Three new CPSIA certificates have been spotted on Nintendo’s website. Two were published on Monday, with another one going up on today.

The item numbers of each certificate may give us insight into what these amiibo could be. One could be for a new double pack of some sort while the other two could be related to Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Of course, that’s just speculation for now.
