Splatoon underwent a little maintenance earlier tonight. That was likely to pave the way for a new update, as version 2.12.0 is out now.

Unsurprisingly, the update doesn’t introduce any new features or additions. It’s instead intended to address a couple of specific issues.

Nintendo’s official patch notes are as follows:

Multiplayer Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue which mistakenly allowed Sprinklers to be placed inside the Tower in Tower Control.

Stage Adjustments

Kelp Dome: Fixed an issue in all game modes that allowed players to move inside the raised starting platforms.

Some new Paper Mario: Color Splash has been appearing today following the release of several new media previews. In one video, we’re able to see the return of a certain familiar enemy. If you’ve played practically any Mario game, the appearance shouldn’t be surprising, though it’s slightly different than we’re used to. In any case, you can find the video after the break – just to be extra careful with spoilers.

Yacht Club Games has been hard at work on Shovel Knight’s next campaign. Today, the studio shared an update as to when it’ll be available.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U / 3DS may have had one Square Enix character in Cloud, but Sora from Kingdom Hearts – another much-requested addition – was left off the roster. Fans are now looking to remedy that with a new skin.

Using Shulk as a base, it’s now possible to play as Sora in the Wii U version of Smash Bros. via modding. You can nab the download here. And for a closer look, watch the video below.
