The NPD report for July 2022 has confirmed that Switch again led monthly video game console sales in the United States when it comes to units. Additionally, the same fact applies to the overall year so far.
Switch was the leader for unit sales, but PlayStation 5 was the leader for the actual dollar amount when it comes to July and 2022 as a whole. It’s worth noting that Sony’s system is more expensive than Switch as the digital version is priced at $400 followed by the standard model at $500.

Original: A Taiwan Kuji shop has not only listed a potential release date for Sonic Frontiers via a promotional image, but has also indicated that the game will be receiving DLC.
The retailer has the title down for launch on November 15, 2022. Multiple rumblings are pointing to that date, but we still don’t have confirmation from SEGA. The PlayStation database also listed the November 15 date at one point, and while everything could be a placeholder, it’s looking quite possible at this point.

Wave Race 64 has just released for Nintendo Switch Online, and we can now take a look at how this version of the game compares visually to past iterations. In this Gamexplain video, the Switch version is first compared to the N64 original, before then being compared to the more modern Wii U version.
As is expected, the Switch version is certainly an improvement over the more jagged N64 original, and since Wii U ports of N64 games tended to make things a little darker, the Switch brightens it up in comparison to be truer to its initial release.
Here is some more information about Wave Race 64:
