Nintendo Switch Online is ringing in October with new icons for Mario’s Super Picross and Mario Party 3 icons. This goes for both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch.
Both of these are “play to unlock” rewards, but it’s actually pretty simple. If you start up the SNES app and play Mario’s Super Picross for even a second, those icons will be made available to you. The same goes for Mario Party 3 on the N64 app, though that requires a membership to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack tier.
For those looking for a complete list of all games included and supported in Nintendo Music, that’s where this post comes in.
Nintendo Music only came with a few songs at launch. However, since then, a few more have been added. Nintendo has also indicated that additional music is coming in the future. Currently it seems that we can expect at least one new title to be brought to the service each week.
A new Shadow Corridor Nintendo Switch physical release has been revealed. A release is planned for October 30, 2025 with Arc System Works distribution.
The package will be sold over in Asia. Along with the series’ first game, you’ll be getting the sequel. English, Japanese,, Chinese (Simplified), and Chinese (Traditional) are included on the cartridge.
October 2024: Today, QUByte Interactive announced a partnership with Spaceboy to publish the upcoming project Hannah. We don’t have a release window yet, but a release on Switch is confirmed.
Hannah is an emotionally driven 3D puzzle platformer that follows the journey of its protagonist as she dives into her past to confront her fears and unravel the mysteries of her childhood. The game is set in a surreal retro world with memories and nightmares in which players can climb ropes, swing, slide, solve puzzles, assemble gadgets and vehicles, and even use enemies to go unnoticed.
A bit of additional information can be found in the following overview:
Mina the Hollower has been delayed, which means the game won’t be making its originally planned October 31 launch.
Yacht Club Games said that development “is so close to being done – we’re playing it from start to finish every day.” Currently the team is working on finalizing design, art, and sound, working on overall game balancing, implementing localization, and testing on all platforms. The delay won’t be a major one, but this is ultimately about final polish and balancing.
May 28: Scurge: Hive, which originally released nearly two decades ago, is now coming to Nintendo Switch.

Limited Run Games is handling a physical release for Astrodogs on Nintendo Switch, the company has announced.
This will be a bit different compared to some of the company’s other products. For one thing, it’s not an ESRB cover (instead it’s PEGI for Europe), though it will work on all Nintendo Switch systems worldwide. Also, note that only 3,000 copies will be produced.
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds hasn’t been out for very long, but a new collaboration DLC is coming very soon as we now have the release date for the Minecraft Pack DLC. Players can access it starting on October 8, 2025. The Minecraft Festival will be held until October 11.
Several more collaboration packs are in the works. SpongeBob SquarePants, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and Avatar Legends were previously announced.
Below is a trailer for the Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds x Minecraft Pack DLC:
