We heard this week that Bandai Namco will be making a few announcements at the Dragon Ball FighterZ World Tour Finals next weekend. Today, the company began to tease some of the reveals in the pipeline.
The first thing fans can look forward to is the announcement of an entirely new game. Bandai Namco isn’t saying much at present, only stating that it’s some sort of action RPG. Platforms have yet to be announced, but the recent titles have been on Switch. It sounds like the mystery project is due out sometime this year.

Switch is the home console seeing the fastest software sales so far in Nintendo’s history
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News, Switch | 0 comments
Japanese daily Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun conducted an interview with Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa, which was published today. Furukawa primarily commented on sales, but some other things as well.
First, Furukawa officially confirmed that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate sold five million copies worldwide in its first week. Additionally, Switch is the home console seeing the fastest software sales so far in Nintendo’s history. The system’s sales began to increase in mid-November, which makes sense given the holiday period and the launch of Pokemon: Let’s Go. Switch is currently available in 60 countries.
Once again, Nintendo sees smartphone gaming as a pillar of earnings. Furukawa wants to land smartphone hits and publish multiple apps across multiple fields.

Giving credibility to a long-running internet joke, dialogue from the Wii’s Fortune Street seems to suggest that Yoshi tries to avoid paying his taxes.
Pointed out by Twitter user Supper Mario Broth, the only documented case of in-game evidence of Yoshi avoiding his taxes comes from the money-centric party game.
Apparently, out of the 26 characters in the game, Yoshi is the only one to ask for exemption from paying his dues when a player constructs a new tax office.
The proof within the pudding can be viewed in all of its glory below.
