The next global mission in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon has started. The new theme is “Win at the Battle Agency!”.

For the latest mission, the goal is to win as many times as possible at the Battle Agency in Festival Plaza, with 100,000 being the target. Everyone who participates will receive 2,000 Festival Coins if players win a collective 100,000 times between January 9 and January 22. Even if the goal isn’t reached, a participation prize of 1,000 Festival Coins will be handed out.

You can earn double the amount of coins by registering at the Pokemon Global Link by the end of the global mission. That means you can receive 4,000 when the goal is reached, and 2,000 even if it isn’t.

Kirby Battle Royale launched in both Europe and Japan in November. As for North America, Nintendo is finally releasing the game next Friday, and you can now pre-load it on the 3DS eShop.

You’ll need 1,688 blocks of space (211MB) for the digital version of Kirby Battle Royale. The process will let you purchase the game in advance and download most of the required data. Then on launch day, you’ll only need a small update to begin playing.

The pre-load also comes with a bonus. Nintendo is handing out codes for a “Kirby Battle Royale: May the Best Kirby Win!” 3DS theme.

A Nintendo Direct will almost certainly be held this month. You know it, we know it. For a recap as to why a Nintendo Direct is highly expected within the next couple of weeks, you can read up on this post. But even disregarding that, common sense tells you that we need to hear from Nintendo soon in order to get a better idea about plans for 2018 on Switch and 3DS.

For Switch’s future, we do actually know about a few things from Nintendo, but not everything is confirmed for this year, and there’s a lot that’s up in the air. Bayonetta 1 and 2 along with Dragon Quest Builders are due out in February. Other than that, we don’t really have solid dates. Nintendo has previously announced Kirby Star Allies, Yoshi, Metroid Prime 4, and new entries in the Pokemon and Fire Emblem series. Project Octopath Traveler will be published at some point as well.
