Since the launch of Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition last week, some users have been reporting an odd issue. Without any input from the user, the problem involves screenshots being taken automatically and randomly. While not confirmed at the time, the situation appeared to be tied to Minecraft.

4J Studios posted an update on Twitter today confirming that Minecraft is indeed the cause, and Nintendo now knows what’s causing it. A bug fix will be addressed soon to not only address problems with screenshots, but false Home button presses as well.

Switch will be back at Toys “R” Us stores across the United States very soon. On Friday, the system should be available once again as part of a “limited” restock.

Customers are advised to show up before doors open. Most locations tend to start business at 10 AM local time, though you may want to verify that with your local outlet.

Super Bomberman R is receiving a small patch tomorrow. Version 1.3.1 is on the way, which Konami is labeling as a “small maintenance patch”.

Tomorrow’s update is unrelated to version 1.4. That one will presumably be the one that adds new characters and more.

Ubisoft reported its latest financial results today. The news was accompanied by a financial call, which is currently taking place.

During the call, Ubisoft commented directly on Switch. The company is reported as having said that it has “new games on Switch” including one that isn’t announced. Also stated is that there are one or two other titles as well, which may be referring to previously-revealed titles such as Rayman Legends – Definitive Edition and Monopoly.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is one Ubisoft game that has been heavily rumored for Switch. It’s speculated to feature turn-based combat, two-player local co-op, and a “goofy sense of humor” with playable characters including Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, plus four Rabbids dressed up as Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Peach. If this project exists – which we do believe is real – E3 would be a good place to announce it.
