Former Nintendo employees share insight into the Mario Switch teaser photo
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 0 comments
If you were paying attention to Nintendo news just before Switch was announced, the image above with Mario might look familiar to you. The photo was shared alongside a message on social media telling fans to tune in the following day for a first look at the console. Mario is peeking behind a curtain, and it’s kind of become a meme with some even joking about how it looks like he’s in the shower.
Kit Ellis and Krysta Yang, a pair of former employees at Nintendo of America, shared some behind-the-scenes information about the shot in a recent podcast episode. They confirmed that it was a new photo led by the company’s former head of social, and a photoshoot was done in large part because there weren’t any assets that could be used. Internally, it was “controversial” and Nintendo apparently wasn’t happy due to concerns about potentially mismanaging expectations.

Game Freak, the main developer of Pokemon, appears to have been hit with a significant hack. As a result, source code for various games, behind-the-scenes information, and more has started to leak online.
Thus far we know that source code for Pokemon Heart Gold / Soul Silver and Black 2 / White 2 have surfaced. A few codenames are also popping up, including “Gaia” – which is apparently what Gen 10 is going by internally. Speaking of which, the new gen is apparently being developed for “Ounce”, which supposedly confirms Switch 2’s codename. And for those curious, “Ikkaku” is the codename for Pokemon Legends: Z-A.

Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
As with all games in the Legend of Zelda series, Echoes of Wisdom has plenty of side content and objectives to fulfill that all count towards 100 percent completion. It’s nowhere near as intensive as Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom’s requirements, making it a decently attainable goal here. We’ve put together a list of all the criteria you’ll need to fulfill in order to count this game as fully complete. While we won’t be spoiling the identity of the final boss, there are minor spoilers within, so only continue if you’re okay with that.
