Digital Foundry has taken a closer look at the Switch version of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. Specifically, the game’s technical performance has been examined in greater detail.

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is 16GB on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Meanwhile, the Switch version is about 6GB. How’d the team managed to shrink the game’s file size? Part of this can be attributed to slightly lower-quality pre-encoded videos. If you’re playing in handheld mode in particular, this is something you probably won’t notice easily.

Super Mario Maker 2 appears to have a hard limit in the number of courses players can upload. Once you’ve shared 32 levels online, that’s it. It seems there is no way to increase that at this time.

In the original Super Mario Maker, 100 was the maximum. Players started at 10 and the amount increased 10 for each medal earned.

The latest Fire Emblem: Three Houses character introduction is all about a character who is neither a student nor a faculty member at the academy. Flayn is the younger sister of Seteth, the assistant of the archbishop. She lives at the monastery and likes interacting with all the students; however, her rampant curiosity makes her brother worry about her a lot. She is voiced by Yuko Ono.

Here’s a brief clip of her talking to Byleth:

Additionally, a new piece of online functionality has been revealed. The game’s official Japanese website has been updated with a segment on various way to spend your free time at the academy; there’s not really any new information, except for this new online functionality: if you’re connected to the internet while playing the game and are an active subscriber to Nintendo Switch Online, you’ll ocasionally see “transfer students” in the academy’s courtyard. These are characters from players all over the world; if you talk to them, they will allow you to buy and sell items, among other things.

Although this art was included in the first announcement image for the Final Fest, this version is focused in on Callie and has been formatted more akin to a phone wallpaper. Those interested can view it above.
