The latest episode of the Play Nintendo Show, featuring Snipperclips, has gone live. Andrew and Jenna play the Switch game that launched a few months back. Check out the full episode below.

Announced during last night’s ARMS Direct, the Splatoon 2 Switch bundle can now be pre-ordered in Europe. Amazon Germany has it up here, and Amazon France has it here. We’ve also included the Switch case for Amazon Germany’s page.

Grand Prix was one of several modes announced for ARMS during the game’s Direct yesterday. Over on the game’s website, a noteworthy tidbit is shared. Grand Prix mode has seven levels of difficulty, so it should keep you busy for awhile.

You’ll want to spend time in Grand Prix if you’re interested in Ranked Matches. In order to participate, you need become a champion above level 4.

System3 has posted the last 2 episodes for their “Undesirable Guide” series featuring 2 new characters coming to Constructor.

First up is the Killer Clown, he is described “as being less child friendly but more of an arsonist that has a penchant for damage.” The second character is the Psycho, “he doesn’t pull any punches, but he can saw up buildings and causing huge amounts of havoc.”

You can check out the two episodes below for more information about the characters.

Thanks to a special European hands-on event, DigitalFoundry has uploaded a new video analysis in which we can take a closer look at how ARMS performs when running on Switch.

Apparently, ARMS will run at a stable 60 FPS in all types of available playstyles, but the 1080p resolution will drop to 900p if we play a 2 or 4-player splitscreen match. Sadly, in 4-player multiplayer the frames per second will be reduced to 30 FPS in order to maintain a good playing flow.

Check out the video below to see for yourselves how good ARMS is looking.
