Fortunately, Chucklefish is already planning a patch. The full details regarding what will be addressed can be found below.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

GamesIndustry has some insight into UK gaming sales for last month. The site said that Switch experienced “broad growth”, leading to more games sold during September the than at any previous month since it launched. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle also made it into the top ten.

GamesIndustry does caution that “Switch sales do appear to be slowing slightly, with stock becoming more readily available at retail.” The site adds that the platform’s performance in the UK “hasn’t matched other territories.”

Nintendo Network

Along with specific 3DS maintenance early next week, Nintendo is also planning additional downtime for the handheld plus Switch and Wii U. All three platforms will be impacted for several hours on Tuesday / Wednesday.
