Universal Brand Development and WayForward revealed The Mummy Demastered yesterday. Oddly, even though Switch was the only announced Nintendo platform, it appears to be slated for Wii U as well.

WayForward told one fan on Twitter that The Mummy Demastered will be distributed as a retail release on Wii U. Switch could also get a physical version, but that’s yet to be confirmed. WayForward will share more news in the future.

If Best Buy Canada’s E3 page is anything to go by, at least three new Switch games could be announced next week.

The retailer currently has placeholders images up on its main page. Each one says “To be revealed at E3”.

Now, we do know that one of them isn’t Super Mario Odyssey as it already has a listing. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle could be a candidate for sure.

The one thing to be slightly concerned about is that Pokken Tournament DX and Fire Emblem Warriors don’t have their own listings on Best Buy Canada right now. But surely they aren’t considered to be new reveals, right? In any case, it’s always a good idea to maintain some skepticism when dealing with retailers. We’ll know what the future holds very soon.

Seiken Densetsu Collection lacks any sort of instructions. For new players, that might be frustrating. Not all games necessarily need manuals, but there’s a reason why Seiken 3 had one (and it was 48 pages) back during the Famicom era – it can be complicated.

Square Enix is looking to fix the situation by addressing player requests. For now, the manuals for the games included in Seiken Densetsu Collection can be viewed here. Producer Masaru Oyamada also apologized for any trouble the lack of in-game explanations caused and acknowledged that players felt it was difficult to figure out how to play. Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual as well, but it will take some time.
