New Pokemon Snap

Earlier in the week, we found out that Pokemon Snap is returning with a brand new game – aptly named New Pokemon Snap. Pre-orders have now started to open.

Best Buy is taking reservations here while GameStop’s page is here. There’s nothing from Amazon currently, though we’ll keep an eye on things.

A release window for New Pokemon Snap hasn’t been announced, but fans hope we’ll be seeing it before 2020 is over.

Ruiner boxart

Ruiner finally made its debut on the Switch eShop this week. But if you’re a collector and can hold out a couple of months, you’ll be able to pick up a physical copy.

Happinet and Kakehashi Games have announced that a physical edition of Ruiner is dropping on September 17 in Japan. It’ll come with a number of goodies like a sticker sheet.

Though Ruiner hasn’t been confirmed for physical release in other territories, importing should be an option.
