The situation with Telltale releases on Switch is a bit of a mystery. Various retailers have listed Guardians of the Galaxy on Nintendo’s console over the past few months, for example. Batman: The Telltale Series has also popped up on store listings.

So when Batman reappeared at select retailers earlier this week, we didn’t think there was much to those listings. But perhaps there is something going on here after all.

GameFly just added in an entry for Batman: The Telltale Series on Switch today. It contains an October 31 release date, though that’s no doubt temporary. The interesting thing to consider here is that GameFly has a very good track record. We can’t say that GameFly is an absolute confirmation, but it’s a good sign about Telltale possibly bringing its Batman series to Switch.

NBA 2K18 has been delayed on Switch… sort of.

The main launch of the sports title is taking place on September 19. While NBA 2K18 will still be coming to Switch on that day digitally, the physical version will not. NBA 2K18 will hit store shelves on Nintendo’s console sometime this fall.

2K and parent company Take-Two Interactive have not provided a reason for the delay.

Splatoon 2 players are experiencing a rather nasty glitch right now. When playing League Battle, the game can completely crash. It seems to happen if you look at your previous stats, and if you have more than nine play records/are playing in team and pair subsections.

Nintendo is at least aware of the situation, and is working on a fix. We should be seeing another patch for Splatoon 2 in the near future.
