Update (9/13): Full patch notes added below.


Original (9/12): Puyo Puyo Tetris’ patch was originally supposed to drop in August. That didn’t happen, though the delay wasn’t terribly long. All players can now download version 1.1.0.

Today’s update is comprised of balance adjustments, increased online player rankings, and stricter penalties for rage-quitters. We’ll update this post if we have the full patch notes or any additional details.

Nintendo recently invited select members of the media and other outlets to go hands-on with Super Mario Odyssey this week. With the Nintendo Direct taking place today, we’ll likely be seeing new previews around the time the presentation ends.

A couple of images have popped up early. Both seem to show the Seaside Kingdom, based on the collectible coins shown. We have the two photos below.

Splatoon 2 has a few more Salmon Run events lined up for this week. One in particular is very interesting.

When you check the Salmon Run schedule in Splatoon 2, the event for Friday / Saturday is a bit of a mystery. Nintendo isn’t saying what weapons will be supplied here. The official Japanese Splatoon Twitter account mentioned this as well.
