The Pokemon Company and Niantic have now officially announced that Ditto can be caught in Pokemon GO. Along with the news, a brief promo has been shared – see it below.

We have a ways to go until The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is ready to launch, but it’s already been rated in Australia. The listing just went live today.

Zelda: Breath of the Wild is rated “M” similar to some of the more recent entries in the series. Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess were both given the same classification.

Rumors about Switch featuring motion controls have been swirling even before Nintendo properly announced the system last month. Now a comment made by GameStop CEO Paul Raines further suggests that the functionality will be included.

Speaking during GameStop’s financial call yesterday about how Switch could expand the gaming audience like Wii, Raines said: “A movement-related game is more fun for kids, you know, taking those accessories off – [the detachable Joy-Con pads] – you can really do a lot of interesting things with that in gameplay.”

Again, talk about motion controls – in one form or another – isn’t entirely new in terms of what we’ve been hearing from the rumor mill. It is interesting though that Raines is further hinting at it being included.

To celebrate the release of Pokemon Sun/Moon in Europe, Nintendo released a special 2DS system featuring Pikachu on the front and the three starters on the back. Take a look at an unboxing video below which also shows off the Fan Editions again.

Yet another Pokemon Sun/Moon bundle has popped up, this time at Walmart. Packages containing a bonus Legendary Pokemon figure are available. 3DS owners can nab the Sun version with Solgaleo here and the Lunala version with Lunala here.

Natsume said it would be restocking the River City: Tokyo Rumble with Limited Edition Kunio Keychain this month, and now the publisher has followed through on that. It’s back up on Amazon here. Orders can be placed now, but the item ships on November 29. Also note that this will be the final restock of the bundle.

Most retailers don’t actually know when Switch is releasing or how much it’ll cost, but UK retailer GameSeek is giving consumers a guarantee. You can reserve the console on its website for £198.50. GameSeek says that if the price increases between the time an order is placed and the release date, you’ll be charged the lower price.

The GameSeek listing also mentions a March 17 release date. Whether or not that’s reliable remains to be seen.

Thanks to Stephan for the tip.
