Switch

At the end of October, Mary Skelter 2 was refused classification in Australia. The game did not receive its rating and was essentially banned in the region. Yet a couple of months later, it seems a release has happened after all.

Mary Skelter 2 popped up on the Australian eShop earlier today without any prior notice. It’s carrying an understandably high R 18+ rating, but there don’t appear to be any changes to the game’s content.

Those who are interested in the title can currently get it at 20 percent off in Australia.

Powercast has announced a Wireless Charging Grip for Switch, which automatically recharges Joy-Con over the air when placed within two feet of the FCC – and ISED-approved PowerSpot wireless power transmitter. The company says the controllers can achieve a full charge when left overnight.

As you can see, Luigi’s Mansion 3 was the best-selling physical Switch game in the UK last week. Just outside the top 10, at #14, is Dr. Kawashima’s Brain Training for Nintendo Switch. It’s a solid debut for the title, especially compared to its predecessor. Launch week sales of the latest Brain Training game are 15 times higher than those of Devilish Brain Training on Nintendo 3DS.

Astroneer

Astroneer has been rated for Switch by the ESRB, marking the second time we’ve seen a classification for the space sandbox adventure on Nintendo’s console. Back in September 2018, it was rated for Switch in Brazil.

We always need to stress that ratings aren’t necessarily confirmations of upcoming releases. However, they’re often signs that the companies involved are thinking about possibilities and are covering all of their bases. It’s possible that Astroneer could end up on Switch in the future, but we don’t have an official announcement at this time.

Here’s some information about Astroneer as well as a trailer:
