Just when we thought that we’ve seen it all when it comes to Zelda: Breath of the Wild mods, the community continues to surprise. The latest effort allows for a battle between Mario and Bowser.

Mario, of course, has been swapped out with Link’s model. Fans have gone a step further by having Bowser’s design take the place for Hinox.

During the Wii U era, Camelot came out with Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash for Wii U. The studio, in collaboration with Nintendo, is now about to release Mario Tennis Aces for Switch. Get a look at how the two games compare below.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition made it to the west a few weeks ago. Digital Foundry took a closer look at the game from a technical perspective, and compared it to the Wii U original and New 3DS version in a video published today.

As far as resolution is concerned, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is 1080p when docked. For the Wii U and New 3DS versions, 30 frames per second was the target. The new Switch version attempts to hit 60 FPS, but there are unfortunately many significant dips. Digital Foundry adds that 60 FPS is rarely met, though it’s still the better experience.

Nintendo Switch

Nintendo’s maintenance schedule has received its latest update. All of the company’s platforms will be impacted as well as Minecraft for Switch across three different sessions.

The current schedule is as follows:
