Laura Kate Dale, who has leaked quite a bit of info on the Switch in the past few months, did an AmA (Ask me Anything) on the Switch subreddit last night. Obviously, most of the questions were about the Switch and what she knows about it. She did clarify a few points and also revealed some new info she believes to be correct. We’ve collected any new, updated and interesting info below; like always, take any of this with a grain of salt and a healthy amount of skepticism. This especially applies to the following points since most of them don’t come from a proper report that Laura wrote, but instead from an informal series of posts of Reddit. Either way, the big Switch event is only 2 1/2 weeks away, so most of this info should be proven either correct or false by then.

According to Laura Kate Dale:

The Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 is less than a month away. One person who we can likely expect to be in attendance is Kenichiro Takaki, the creator of Senran Kagura. Takaki shared a photo on Twitter of an invite he received for the event.

Here’s a look:

Takaki’s invitation raises the question as to whether we can expect to hear any news about Senran Kagura on Switch – or maybe he’ll simply be there for the sake of it. We’ll find out when the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 is hosted on January 12 (January 13 for folks in Europe and Australia).

It seems like Nintendo is pulling out all the stops for the big Switch event at Tokyo Big Sight in January. In addition to being able to try out the Switch for themselves, attendees will also get to experience various concerts.

A rock band put together by Nintendo will perform twice on January 14th and once on January 15th. They will perform various video game tunes. Finally, a big band will perform on January 15th to cap off the event. They will also perform video game-themed music.

We first heard about Piggyback’s plans for a Zelda: Breath of the Wild guide yesterday. The company has now posted another message on Twitter, giving us a much clearer image. Additionally, we have confirmation that three editions are planned: “Deluxe”, “Collector”, and “Regular”.

If nothing else, hopefully the guide news is a sign that Zelda: Breath of the Wild is launching sooner rather than later. Despite the rumors of a summer release, having it ready at Switch’s launch would be fantastic.

Image & Form posted the latest episode of The Engine Room today. The studio talked about – or rather teased – its plans for 2017, including the next SteamWorld game.

It would appear that the proper announcement of the new project isn’t too far off, as it will actually be shown at PAX East in March. SteamWorld Quest should be the name going off of what we heard a few months ago, though it’s not officially set in stone.

Watch the full episode of The Engine Room below.
