Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road 1.3.0 update

A new version 1.3.0 update for Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road 1.3.0 was recently released. On both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch, it can be downloaded now.

One of the big things here is a Level 50 cap in Ranked Matches. There’s also a couple of smaller features, balance adjustments, and bug fixes.

The full rundown is as follows:

The latest UK software sales chart for the week ending November 22, 2025 is now available.

The big news here is the debut of Kirby Air Riders, which actually missed out on the top ten. You’ll find it this week down at #12. Kirby Air Ride on GameCube wasn’t a massive seller back in the day, so this may not come as a huge surprise.

Worth noting, Mario Kart World is still trucking along. This one actually moved up a spot from #3 to #2.

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart outlining what Japanese gamers are looking forward to based on reader votes. This week, for some reason, Genshin Impact for Nintendo Switch enters the top 30. We’re not sure why – that version was announced years ago, but is very likely cancelled. Still, some fans still seem to have some hope for its release.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between November 5 and November 11.

Below are the latest Nintendo products that can be currently pre-ordered at retailers:

Black Friday technically isn’t until next week, but Capcom has already started up a new Nintendo eShop sale for Switch 2 and Switch.

Most of these are titles for Nintendo Switch 1, but are backwards compatibility on Switch 2. Worth noting, Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is at a new low price. Also, the same goes for Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, which is only on Nintendo Switch 2.

Pokemon battle gimmicks ranked

Since the release of Pokemon X and Y in 2013, new games in the series have had a battle “gimmick” of some sort to keep things fresh. It all started with Mega Evolution in X and Y, which was then expanded upon in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Then we got Z-Moves in Pokemon Sun and Moon, followed by Dynamax and Gigantamax in Pokemon Sword and Shield. Then we’ve got Terastallization in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and that’s where we’re at right now. We’re almost certain to see another new gimmick introduced in the tenth generation of Pokemon, which is getting closer and closer by the day given that Scarlet and Violet released three years ago already. So today, we’re taking a look at all of these battle gimmicks and ranking them from best to least best. None of the gimmicks are outright terrible – they’re all inspired and thematically appropriate for their regions, but some are certainly better than others.

The rollout of notable Switch 2 games continues, and this week Nintendo brought out Kirby Air Riders. About two decades after the original on GameCube, a sequel to the racer has released. This is also the first title we’ve seen from director Masahiro Sakurai since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in 2018.

If you’ve picked up Kirby Air Riders thus far (or played the recent demo), what are your initial thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.
