It was recently made known that Level-5 will be bringing the original Yo-kai Watch to Switch. The company has officially confirmed the news, and has revealed an October 10 release date for Japan. Pricing is set at 4,980 yen.

Unlike the 3DS original, Yo-kai Watch 1 for Switch will feature full HD graphics. It will also work with the Yo-kai Art and DX Yo-Seiken toys.

Here are the first screenshots from the Switch version:

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s next update is coming soon. Version 4.0.0 goes live within the next week, Nintendo announced as part of an in-game notice. The company also just revealed a few minutes ago that it will host a presentation on July 30 to share more on the Hero DLC and the character’s release date.

Once the update is installed, players may not be able to view replays saved prior to this version. You can save replays ahead of time by visiting the Vault, then Replays, Replay Data, and finally Convert to Video.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Early reports are in for Fire Emblem: Three Houses’ debut sales in the UK.

In its first week, the game managed to top the charts. We’re also hearing that it sold nearly double the launch sales of Fire Emblem Awakening. On top of that, it had more than double the combined sales of the first two Fire Emblem Fates (Birthright / Conquest) games.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses secured the number one spot by a wide margin. It doubled up on the boxed sales of Wolfenstein: Youngblood, which also came out a few days ago.
