After a bit of digging, some fans are convinced that Nintendo is hiding potential N64 games for Switch Online, including Super Smash Bros.
The video actually isn’t new having been released at the very end of May. But for one reason or another, fans started to take a closer look at segments of footage that were blurred out. Comparisons have been made to boxarts and how they line up. Aside from Smash Bros., the trailer is supposedly hiding Donkey Kong 64, Glover, and Forsaken as well.

Skull & Co StandGrip review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
We’ve got another Nintendo Switch 2 accessory review for you – this time for the Skull & Co StandGrip.
By now, the Savage Raven line of grips for Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the only ones that hasn’t been surrounded by some sort of production controversy. Quite the opposite, actually – generally speaking, it seems both the Neo Grip and the StandGrip have been received positively so far. Today, we’re focusing specifically on the StandGrip, which is available from the Skull & Co website for around $20 right now. Despite appearing like a budget option, the StandGrip is currently my favorite out of the Nintendo Switch 2 grips I’ve tried. I’m someone who almost exclusively plays in handheld mode, and for that purpose the StandGrip works excellently. It might not suit everybody’s play style for reasons we’ll delve into in a moment, but this grip should absolutely be on your radar if you’re looking for a good one.
