Gameloft is continuing its slow rollout of information for Disney Speedstorm, and has recently provided a look at a never-before-seen Beauty and the Beast-inspired track. As you would expect, it’s quite recognizable thanks to things like teacups.
This is the latest course revealed for the game. We’ve previously seen Pirates Island from Pirates of the Caribbean, Jungle Ruins from The Jungle Book, a Monsters Inc. track, and another for Mount Olympus from Hercules, which has the Zeus Circuit, and Ares Circuit.

Original (5/15): This week’s UK software sales are in, with Nintendo Switch Sports again topping the chart for a third week in a row.
The title actually saw a 54 percent dip week-on-week. However, due to the lack of major releases as of late, it’s been able to stay #1. It’s thought that Nintendo Switch Sports could remain in the top five for the foreseeable future.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is also still selling as it’s in the second spot. The game has stayed in the top two for six weeks.

Last chance to use credit cards on the 3DS and Wii U eShops
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
The time has almost come for major changes on the 3DS and Wii U eShops, as both stores will be ending support for credit cards in just a few days.
Back in February, Nintendo announced that it will be ending digital purchases on the two systems next March. As part of that, a few different steps are planned. The first step is that as of May 23, 2022, users will no longer be able to use a credit card to add funds to an account. Then on August 29, it will no longer be possible to use an eShop card to add funds. Download codes can still be redeemed until late March 2023.
