Luigi’s Mansion arrives on 3DS later this week. It goes without saying, but the controls have changed since the original game landed on the GameCube. GameXplain show off how the controls work below, both on the New 2DS and regular 3DS. We’re also given a look at the new Strobulb flashlight option that was first seen in Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon.

DrinkBox Studios has revealed that both of its Guacamelee games are coming to Switch. In fact, the first title is out today on the eShop. Guacamelee 2 will follow in December.

The Guacamelee games are Metroidvania action platformers. The first one ended up on Wii U a few years ago while DrinkBox only just wrapped up the sequel in August.

WILL: A Wonderful World will normally be priced at $14.99 / €14.99. However, a one week launch discount price of $11.99 / €11.99 is planned.

D3 Publisher and Red Entertainment are bringing the otome visual novel Nightshade to Nintendo Switch. The game will launch in Japan on December 20th. Although a localization and a release in other regions has not yet been confirmed, the game is listed as having English language support. The Steam version of the game is also already available in English, so a Western release of the Switch version seems pretty likely, all things considered.
