Below are the full update notes:

– Added USB connection to Mac mode.
– Fixed the bug that the controller would not turn on occasionally.
– Press and hold L+R and then plug in USB cable to update the controller if it does not power on.

In honor of the 10th anniversary of the Valkyria Chronicles series, a special collector’s edition is being released in Japan. It will cost 12,990 yen, which translates to about $115.

Called the 10th Anniversary Memorial Box, the special edition slated to include an art book (pictured above), a 10th anniversary soundtrack, and a download code for the special DLC “Joint Operation with Squad 7.”

At the moment, it’s unknown whether regions outside Japan will be getting access to the collector’s edition. Here’s hoping.

It wasn’t too long ago that Nintendo announced a soundtrack release for Super Mario Odyssey, though only in Japan. Play-Asia is taking reservations here.

The Super Mario Odyssey soundtrack has 136 tracks spread across four discs. It also comes with two original stickers and a luxury booklet featuring developer commentary (in Japanese), Pauline setting documents, and more.

You can pick up the soundtrack starting on February 28.

In North America, the only way to nab the Neon Pink / Neon Green Joy-Con is by purchasing the Splatoon 2 Switch bundle. That could be changing soon.

EB Games Canada’s internal inventory system is listing a standalone release of the Neon Pink / Neon Green Joy-Con for January 5. It’ll be priced at $99.99 ($79.99 USD), the same as other Joy-Con. Technically this date isn’t officially confirmed, so we’ll let you know if anything changes.

Raymond Strazdas has shared another look at Nintendo Labo having gone hands-on with it during a media event yesterday. Check out the video below for footage of the Robot Kit mini-game and more.

New data from Chart-Track reveals the top five best-selling Switch games of 2017. The results are as follows:

1. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
2. Super Mario Odyssey
3. Zelda: Breath of the Wild
4. 1-2 Switch
5. Splatoon 2

One interesting fact: the top three games have all sold over 300,000 copies. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle also just missed out on reaching the top five. FIFA 18 apparently places at #7. Additionally, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe just managed to outsell Super Mario Odyssey.
