Ahead of the game’s launch, Nintendo has announced the Drag x Drive: Global Jam demo event.
Those with a Nintendo Switch Online membership can access it next month. Three sessions will be held in total across a couple of days with four hours dedicated to each slot.
The full schedule is as follows:
June 6: As part of Sumemr Game Fest 2025, Capcom shared a Year 3 character reveal for Street Fighter 6.
Sagat is up first this summer. Then in the fall, we’ll be seeing C. Viper. Early Spring 2026 will bring us Alex. Finally, in late spring of next year, we’ll be seeing Ingrid.
Today, we’re going over a list of missable pictographs and missable figurines in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
Recently, we’ve been playing the game on GameCube. More specifically, the version that’s available on Nintendo Switch Online. While the game is fun to play casually, it’s not fun to 100 percent complete. The Wind Waker’s side content includes plenty of tedious Heart Pieces and trading sequences, but its biggest task is completing the dreaded Nintendo Gallery. For this task, you have to take pictures of almost every single entity in the game. The picture needs to include its face and most of its body in order to count. You can then hand this picture off to Carlov, who makes a figurine based on it. There are well over 100 different figures to make, and some of them are actually permanently missable. If you decide to play through The Wind Waker with a walkthrough (Zelda Dungeon’s is particularly good), it most likely won’t tell you which pictures are about to become unobtainable.
Ratalaika Games will publish a Nintendo Switch version of Karma City Police this week, the company has announced. Fans can grab it on July 18, 2025.

Thanks to the destruction in Donkey Kong Bananza, the game will let players skip locations and parts of the story.
That news comes from co-director Kazuya Takahashi. Speaking in an interview that went live today, he spoke about how the Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive provides “leeway in terms of progression”. While games often block off sequence breaking, it’s allowed in Donkey Kong Bananza.
Takahashi noted in the interview:
