Nintendo is running a special contest involving Labo. One of the prizes is rather neat, as winners will be given a specially designed, collectible cardboard-inspired Switch system. We have a few photos showing off the design below.

The Smash Bros. Blog has updated with its latest entry for Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around, the Sukapon Assist Trophy gets the focus.

Here’s an introduction:

Super Bomberman R received a major update last night. Among other things, several new characters were added, including Solid Snake / Naked Snake plus Xavier Woods of WWE fame. We have some footage below.

Cat Quest II

The GentleBros has shared the first trailer for Cat Quest II, which we have below. A Switch version is currently planned.

Cat Quest II features a story of two kingdoms at war, and the heroes that must rise to save it. The action RPG will let you play as a cat and a dog, solo or with a friend. A release is planned for early 2019.

Neko Tomo

This week’s issue of Famitsu has announced Neko Tomo, a sequel to the 3DS title Kuma Tomo. Nintendo published the last entry in the series as Teddy Together.

Kuma Tomo is in the works for both Switch and 3DS. Here’s what we know:

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Smash Bros. Ultimate is going to have a ton of stages. At this point, evidence point to there being close to 100. The current count is at 84 or so.

With the amount of stages in the game, some had speculated that Smash Bros. Ultimate would possibly be bringing back all previous ones. As it turns out, however, that apparently isn’t the case.

At E3 a couple of weeks ago, Japanese magazine Famitsu participated in a press event with Nintendo’s Bill Trinen and Nate Bihldorff. One point brought up during a Q&A session is that not every stage will be returning. Unless we hear otherwise from someone else at Nintendo or director Masahiro Sakurai, that’s where thing stands. Yet with the amount of characters and stages that we know about, it’s hard to feel disappointed.
