Switch 2

Arcade Archives Munch Mobile

Another Arcade Archives game is about to drop on Nintendo Switch, which is Munch Mobile. It’ll be out tomorrow, October 16.

Munch Mobile originally comes from Konami. The 1983 game has you playing as a car with arms as they pick up fuel and food.

Here’s an official overview:

Pokemon Legends Z-A 1.0.1 update

Pokemon Legends: Z-A is coming with its own day one update, which is version 1.0.1. If you’ve pre-installed the game on either Nintendo Switch 2 or Switch, you should be able to access it already in time for launch this week.

The patch notes are straightforward but ultimately this is a pretty important update. Without it, it sounds like you won’t be able to access online functionality.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker 1.4.1 update

Nintendo has released a small update for Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and starting today, players can access version 1.4.1. The update is the same for both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.

The patch merely fixes some issues, according to the company. However, specifics weren’t provided beyond that.

The official notice about today’s update reads:

Pokemon Pokopia Nintendo Switch 1

New development information has come to light about Pokemon Pokopia, revealing that it was originally envisioned as a Nintendo Switch 1 game. Just like we’ve seen from other Pokemon leaks over the past few days, the details are coming from the Game Freak “Teraleak”.

The project first began in 2021 with the codename Oasis. At this point, Pokemon Pokopia was slated for Nintendo Switch 1. However, this isn’t the only piece of interesting information about the game’s history.

Nintendo Switch list all GameShare games

Tying in with the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’ve put together a complete list of games that support GameShare. We’ll be updating this post over time as well.

GameShare is brand new for Nintendo Switch 2. With the feature, select titles allow you to play with others even if they don’t own a copy of the game. Even more interesting, you can share games locally with those that have the original Nintendo Switch. It’s possible to link up with up to three other systems at a time. We’ll also mention that GameShare supports online play with other Nintendo Switch 2 systems.

Pokemon Legends Z-A graphics comparison

A handy graphics comparison has come in for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch 1 versions of Pokemon Legends: Z-A.

It was previously mentioned that on Nintendo Switch 2, the game features improved performance, enhanced resolution, and a smoother frame rate. However, there’s a bit more to things than that.

As the embargo lifts for Pokemon Legends: Z-A, some interesting details have started to surface, including where the game fits in the Pokemon timeline.

Pokemon Legends Z-A reviews

Nintendo is just a couple of days away from publishing Pokemon Legends: Z-A on Switch 2 and Switch, but before that happens, first reviews are starting to arrive. We have a roundup of some early verdicts.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A is the second “Legends” game following Arceus in 2022. Rather than going back in time in the Hisui region, we’re instead revisiting the modern day era of Lumiose City, which was previously featured in Pokemon X and Y. Various features are included such as Trainers and their Pokemon both moving around in real-time battles, new Mega Evolutions, Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokemon, the he Z-A Royale competition, and multiplayer battles.

Square Enix is back with another round of details for Octopath Traveler 0, this time covering Pardis III – the tyrannical monarch plotting to seize control of Orsterra – plus companions who will stand against his ambitions alongside you, and a few of the unique and unusual facilities you can construct through Town Building.
