Nintendo has updated its maintenance schedule once again, showing that a bunch of additional maintenance is planned for tonight. Sessions are planned for Pokemon Sun/Moon/Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, the first Splatoon, and more.

At least for now, Linkle only exists in the world of Hyrule Warriors. But now fans have brought the character over to Zelda: Breath of the Wild through a new mod in the Wii U version.

You can see Linkle in action below.
