Switch update 17.0.0

The latest firmware update for Switch just released, and version 17.0.0 should begin to roll out for all system owners.

Similar to upgrades as of late, there’s again nothing here in terms of functionality. Nintendo has done some small tinkering behind the scenes and promises another wave of stability improvements.

Here’s the official patch notes (or single patch note) from Nintendo:

Tokyo Dark: Remembrance physical

Tokyo Dark: Remembrance is now confirmed for physical release on Switch. Announced by Limited Run Games today, the title will be sold as part of its distribution line.

Only a standard version is planned at present. Limited Run Games will not be offering any limited editions.

Pui Pui Molcar Let's! Molcar Party! North America English

Nighthawk Interactive announced today that it’s releasing an English version of Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! in the west. The game is scheduled for November 21, 2023, and you can pre-order it on Amazon now here.

Pui Pui Molcar Let’s! Molcar Party! previously launched at the very end of 2021 in Japan and Asia. While it was handled by Bandai Namco in those regions, it seems that Nighthawk Interactive is in charge of everything for the North American and European debut.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R update 2.2.0

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R is getting ready for its latest update with version 2.2.0. This should go live on October 15 or October 16 (depending on your region).

The update is highlighted by support for the latest DLC character, Yuya Fungami. However, it’ll also include a ton of balance adjustments.

Here’s the full rundown:

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Sheikah Towers Guardians tech

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom builds on the mechanics and world of Breath of the Wild, but there are some elements that are absent such as the Sheikah Towers and Guardians. In their place are things like the Skyview Towers and new types of enemies we didn’t see in the previous title. But what happened to the Sheikah tech in Breath of the Wild anyway?

Hidemaro Fujibayashi, who was the director on Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild, offered up an explanation in an interview with The Telegraph. He explained that the Sheikah technology simply disappeared – which the people of Hyrule apparently saw. However, Fujibayashi said “it is considered a mystery.”

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Angry Beavers moveset

Yet another Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 spotlight trailer has arrived, this time for the recently-confirmed Angry Beavers – and we’ve got a proper look at the moveset.

The Angry Beavers are a brand new addition to this entry. Both can switch out at any time – Daggett is about speed and combos while Norbert’s positives are with his superior range and strength. When their side specials or neutrals are used, the other beaver is called in for assistance. However, if one of the beavers gets hit after they’ve been called in for an assist, they’ll take some damage and can’t tag out for a few seconds. Both of their movesets are unique.
