Nintendo is starting to go all in with Switch advertising in Japan. As seen at the very end of last week, the system was being advertised with Splatoon 2 in Tokyo’s subways.

More ads are showing up, now in Shibuya Station. Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are also being promoted with the new posters.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu‘s most wanted games chart! Dragon Quest XI, Monster Hunter XX, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild hold steady and remain in the top ten.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between January 12 and January 18.

A bunch of French interviews with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma popped over the past few days pertaining to Breath of the Wild. One of these was with Gamekult. While we published a summary at the time, we now have a complete translation thanks to the hard work done by Nintendo Everything reader Kyrio.

With the translation, there’s a better understanding as to what Aonuma said about certain subjects, such as testing done for the game. We also have his comments about topics like coming to an agreement with Shigeru Miyamoto about the essence of Zelda. Honestly, this is one of the more interesting interviews with Aonuma in quite some time, so it’s definitely worth a read.

Bandai Namco has gone live with a commercial for the recently-announced Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission X. In it, we’re able to get a first glimpse of gameplay. View the ad below.

The original Shovel Knight features amiibo support in a variety of ways. Yacht Club Games’ special figure unlocks co-op, exclusive challenge stages, and more.

For the newest addition to Shovel Knight – that being Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment of course – Yacht Club Games is once again supporting amiibo. Nintendo’s site mentions how you’ll be able to “summon a spirit of Shovelry to keep you company during your quest”.

That note is specifically stated for Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment on Switch. However, the same functionality will likely be included in the Wii U and 3DS versions as well. Hopefully Yacht Club Games provides additional information before launch in March.
