This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

Kwaidan: Azuma Manor Story will be arriving on Switch this Fall in Japan. The point-and-click adventure/3D-action hybrid will cost 2,273 yen, according to the latest issue of Famitsu. Already available for both PC and PS4 here in the West, granted with a two year localization delay, its quite possible we will also see a release on Western eShops before too long. Take a look at the overview below, as gathered by Gematsu:

Super Mario Maker 2

Nintendo is done with major updates for Super Mario Maker 2, but the game did receive a small patch today. The game is now at version 3.0.1.

The main change concerns Ninji Time Attack. Those that pause while playing the mode won’t be able to move for a period of time after closing the pause menu. Other issues have been fixed to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.

Nintendo ended its primary support for Super Mario Maker 2 in April. Version 3.0.0 featured World Maker, new course parts, and more. If you missed out on that, you can find those patch notes here.

Tabe-O-Ja

Bandai Toys today announced Tabe-O-Ja, a cooking battle action game for Switch. A release is planned for this winter in Japan.

Below are the first details, courtesy of Gematsu:

Nintendo intends to hold the latest tournament for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate later this week. You’ll only be able to use characters that are pilots, including Captain Falcon, Fox, Zero Suit Samus, and Olimar.

The new tournament goes live in Smash Bros. Ultimate on July 17. It’ll last for a total of three days.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV

NIS America has shared the latest trailer for The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV, which focuses on the RPG’s characters. View it below.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV is due out for Switch in 2021.

Every now and then, when Nintendo upgrades the Switch firmware, it comes with an update for controllers. That’s what happened with last night’s release of version 10.1.0.

To update your controllers, head on over to system settings. Go down to the “Controllers and Sensors” tab, and then simply select “Update Controllers”. The whole process should be quick and easy.

Nintendo unfortunately doesn’t make it clear what these updates actually do. That being said, you may want to carry it out just to ensure your controllers are in tip-top shape.
