Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door frame rate resolution

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is just about to make its return on Switch, and Digital Foundry has now provided some technical details, including frame rate and resolution. We have information about the graphical updates as well.

Here’s the full roundup of tidbits:

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Future Saga DLC

Bandai Namco today revealed the future of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, which will include brand new Future Saga DLC.

The DLC is a continuation from “Villainous Mode” and “Supervillain”. Fu is back to cause more antics as part of the latest story chapter. Future Saga Chapter 1 will include an additional scenario, Goku Black (Super Saiyan Rose, Ultra Supervillain), Vegeta (Super Saiyan God, Ultra Supervillain), and another character plus other unspecified content.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door ROM leak

Not long before it’s official launch, there’s been a ROM leak for the new Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

It’s never a good thing for Nintendo when this happens, but it’s perhaps not quite as significant as previous leaks. After all, we’re talking about a game that has technically been around for twenty years. Remember that Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door originally launched for the GameCube in 2004. It’s still a spoiler-heavy game though, so keep that in mind while being online.

With the release of Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance drawing ever closer, another Daily Demon video has been released by Atlus to showcase one of the demons that will be in the game. Volume 42 of the series focuses on Cironnup.

Smash Bros Ultimate win rates

In his latest video on YouTube, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai provided insight into the game’s win rates.

Many fans have certain opinions about which characters are best to play as. You can probably find plenty of tier lists online with some fighters coming out more favorably. However, win rates in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are probably closer than you’d think.

Nintendo typically shares launch trailers on release date, but we’ve got a bit of an early one for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The video comes ahead of the remake’s debut later in the week.

If you need a refresher on what to expect, check out the following overview:

Cocoon physical

It’s been a busy day for Switch physical release news, and you can now add another one to the pile with iam8bit announcing a boxed copy for Cocoon.

The game will be sold as part of a collector’s edition. Each copy includes the title on a cartridge, 3” laser-etched crystal orb light with an activator pedestal, 11”x17” double-sided poster featuring original art, five Orb art cards, and exclusive cover art by Erwin Kho.

Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion: HD Renovation physical

Rock It Games has confirmed plans to produce a physical version of Spooky’s Jump Scare Mansion: HD Renovation.

The physical edition “brings the conclusion of the long-awaited S.O.U.P. Update (Spooky Object Update Project), which introduces aesthetic updates, new content, and more.” New animations and effects for all 13 known specimens and five unknown specimens are included. All updates and features will be available for Endless mode, as well as the Karamari Hospital and Spooky Dollhouse DLC.

Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door reviews

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door still has a couple of days to go until its Switch launch, but reviews are now starting to come in. Nintendo lifted the embargo a few minutes ago.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door brings back the classic GameCube RPG. Aside from fresh visuals, the title features an updated soundtrack plus gameplay additions like updated quick-travel pipes and a Partner Ring to quickly swap characters.
