One of the new aspects of Bowser’s Fury in Super Mario 3D World for Switch involves Bowser Jr. The character will be with you along the way and provides help by fighting enemies as well as uncovering power-ups. A friend can even play as Bowser Jr. in local co-op.
It looks like you’ll actually be able to adjust how often Bowser Jr. provides help. Nintendo sent out a Japanese screenshot of the settings for Bowser’s Fury, and while we can only seen one of the options, it equates to something like “from time to time” or “a little”.
Here’s a look at the settings:

SuperData estimate: Among Us sold 3.2 million copies on Switch in December
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
According to a new estimate from SuperData, the Switch version of Among Us sold 3.2 million copies on Switch during December. It was “the highest-earning version of the game for the month,” the report states.
That number is not official, so we do again need to stress that this is an estimate. Still, anything even remotely close to 3.2 million would be quite impressive.
We can say for a fact that Among Us has repeatedly topped the Switch eShop charts since launch.
