We’ve seen plenty of Star Fox Zero footage this week, but now some gameplay of Star Fox Guard has emerged as well. Take a look at seven minutes from the title below.

Super Mario Maker has received a new update, bringing the game to version 1.42. Nintendo says of the patch: “A number of issues have been fixed to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.”

IGN has posted another Star Fox Zero video that gives us a look at co-op multiplayer. Check out the footage below.


Polygon has put up the latest video in its “Devs Make Mario” series. In today’s feature, Mega Man producer Keiji Inafune creates a level in the game. View it below.

Update (4/6): Bumped to the top. It’s now been decided that the Squid Sisters will perform on April 29.


Original (3/24): Splatoon’s Squid Sisters held a performance at Niconico Tokaigi 2016 nearly two months ago. Towards the end of April, Marie and Callie will be back in action.

Nintendo is planning on having the Squid Sisters appear at Niconico Chokaigi. We’re waiting on more concrete information, but additional details will be shared at a later date.
