Nintendo has posted three new trailers for Nintendo Labo on its Japanese YouTube channel. The first servers as a general introduction, while the other two are for the kits specifically. All three videos can be found below.

Koei Tecmo has released a trio of characters for the new DLC characters in Fire Emblem Warriors. We have videos for Minerva, Linde, and Navarre below.

Fire Emblem Warriors’ next big update is here. Players can download version 1.4.0, which paves the way for the new Shadow Dragon Pack.

Below are the official patch notes:

A Famitsu live stream with Suda51 was oddly being hyped this week, even though these broadcasts have been taking place for a few months and don’t often reveal anything too big. That was once again the case with the latest event. Suda51 didn’t have any major revelations, but brought along some new concept art and shared a few small details.

Suda51 first showed the “Golden Gun” that’s used to kill demons by an unannounced character. Players will encounter this character in a game-within-a-game that has a modern setting. Suda noted how that the gun is similar to the one from Killer7.

Announced earlier in the week, the strategy RPG God Wars: Great War of Japanese Mythology is landing on Switch in Japan. We have some screenshots in the gallery below.

As mentioned earlier today, the Japanese Kirby Star Allies website is now open for business. The site provides new details, including information about the story, mini-games, and amiibo support.

Kirby Star Allies begins as Planet Pop Star erupts into turmoil due to a dark power located far away in the galaxy. A
ritual ensues, and mysterious lights scatter, with the one known as the “Demon Heart” showing up in Dream Land.

Digital Foundry recently shared a technical analysis for Bayonetta 2 on Switch. They’re back once again, now with a look at the first game.

Bayonetta runs at 720p on Switch when docked similar to the sequel. Compared to Wii U, the game on Switch has a bit of improved texture filtering. There are other very subtle changes as well, such as the approach to bloom lighting.
