Each time Xbox boss Phil Spencer is asked about Nintendo, he offers nothing but praise for the company. That was no different when AusGamers recently sent a question his way about the big N.

Spencer actually started out by mentioning how he’d “love to see Mario on Xbox.” He also believes “Nintendo has the strongest first-party of anybody”. Spencer later added, “they’ve been incredibly important for the games industry, they do a great job with younger audiences, and if we ever had a chance to work with them in the future, I would absolutely do it.”

Much has been made of a presentation slide GameStop included in its latest financial presentation. In it, Zelda: Breath of the Wild is shown to be planned for Q1 2017. Some have taken this as a hint that the game would be out in close to Switch’s launch.

Meanwhile, Laura Kate Dale has posted a new rumor in which she claims that Nintendo is targeting a mid-June launch for Breath of the Wild in the UK, which would almost certainly go along with a worldwide launch. The company is “internally aiming” to get the Switch version out on June 16 and June 23 on Wii U.

Separately from Zelda, Dale says the Switch port for Xenoblade Chronicles X is not being handled by Monolith Soft. Instead, a porting agency has been brought in similar to Xenoblade Chronicles 3D on New 3DS. Monolith is “working on something new ground up for Switch,” which we won’t see until 2018 at the earliest.
