Pokemon Legends: Z-A Floette location

We have a new location guide for Pokemon Legends: Z-A that’s all about Eternal Flower Floette.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A is available now, and it actually doesn’t introduce a single new species of Pokemon. There are new Mega Evolutions, sure, but no truly all-new Pokemon. That’s okay, given that there are well over 1,000 species of Pokemon available right now. Legends Z-A does, however, introduce a new form of Pokemon that has been in the game’s code for over a decade, but completely unobtainable until now: Eternal Flower Floette. Indeed, it was first discovered hidden within Pokemon X and Y’s game code in 2013, but it was never made available – perhaps an event was canceled or the game’s story changed, but we don’t know for sure. Whichever the case may be, Eternal Flower Floette is now available in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Just be prepared to work for it, because you have to clear the main story to even begin working your way towards it. There are story spoilers inside, so keep that in mind before you continue.

In a previous interview, Nintendo confirmed that Donkey Kong Bananza was initially in development for Switch 1 before it was moved to Switch 2. In fact, we even got a screenshot showing how things looked on the older hardware. But now in another interview, we get to hear more about why Donkey Kong Bananza really wouldn’t have been possible on Nintendo Switch 1 at the end of the day – especially in its final state.

Donkey Kong Bananza generally runs at 60 frames per second on Nintendo Switch 2. On Switch 1, 30 FPS would have been the target – but it sounds like the team was having a tough time even reaching stable performance at that level. Even more interesting though, back when development was happening on Switch 1, Nintendo hadn’t made the lower layers yet and according to co-director Wataru Tanaka, “if we continued making the game like this all the way down it may not be possible.”

Below is our full translation of the Nintendo Dream interview excerpt with Tanaka, artist Daisuke Watanabe, and producer Kenta Motokura: 

One of the highlights for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is its various collaborations, and one of these is for Yakuza’s Ichiban Kasuga. Creative director Masaru Kobayakawa recently shared a bit of backstory about the character’s inclusion in a recent interview with Famitsu.

Kobayakawa told the Japanese magazine that there was some initial hesitation from the Yakuza team about the collaboration. He said:

Those waiting for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville to be fixed on Nintendo Switch 2 will be happy to hear that they’re now both in working order. Download the latest updates to ensure that they’re running properly.

Both were previously broken on the console. Some Nintendo Switch 1 titles with issues on Switch 2 work, but may have specific issues. It was a different situation for these two titles though as Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville were previously said to be unsupported.

Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted has leaked, and after some early hands-on time, fans have come across various issues.

The game won’t be out for a few more days, but the leak took place over on the EA app. One person has even been streaming the title. Unfortunately, the reception hasn’t been great so far.

Guitar Life Switch English west

After a previous debut in Japan, Guitar Life for Nintendo Switch is coming west on Nintendo Switch with full English support. It will be out stateside on December 15, 2025.

Guitar Life is all about teaching you how to play a guitar. There are specific lessons you can follow, but also a variety of other modes – including free play.

Here’s a whole bunch of information about what’s on offer:

Breaking news, everyone: Pikachu does in fact poop. This piece of information was big enough for Pikachu to trend in Japan.

That massive lore tidbit comes from the series’ latest game, Pokemon Legends: Z-A. A specific NPC has his own Pikachu who’s apparently dealing with some stomach woes. The trainer essentially says he’s worried since Pikachu is pooping more than usual. The English localization goes a bit softer – the direct quote in that version is “My Pikachu’s been having tummy troubles recently. I’m worried…”

Below is the NPC in question, as shared by teso_026:
