Springtron is the highlight of today’s update, but Nintendo also in badges, made balance adjustments, and more. We’ll update this post with the full patch notes when we have them.

Super Mario Cereal’s amiibo functionality in Mario Odyssey isn’t out of the ordinary
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 12 Comments
The fact that Super Mario Cereal is happening is a sight to behold in and of itself. But the fact that it also acts as an amiibo makes things even more interesting.
The Super Mario Cereal box teases that its sticker can be scanned in Super Mario Odyssey. However, it seems that it doesn’t really do anything that special as an amiibo.
Reddit user ziiigg, who shared the back of the Super Mario Cereal box earlier today, says that it works like most other amiibo in Super Mario Odyssey. That means when you scan the box, it can go look for Power Moons. There is just a slight, neat touch though – players are told that the Super Mario Cereal is a “delicious” amiibo.

Tekken 7 director unsure about a Switch version, could be investigated if there’s enough interest
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 78 Comments
Tekken 7 director Katsuhiro Harada was asked about the possibility of a Switch version earlier in the year. However, he didn’t have much to say at the time. Harada was again asked about the possibility in a new interview with GameSpot this week.
While speaking with the site, Harada indicated that there would be some technical work needed to make a Switch version happen. He brought up the idea of “a lighter version of the game that’s easily portable to that platform”, though right now there are no immediate plans.
