Leslie Swan, a former localization manager at Nintendo of America who spent nearly three decades at the company, has spoken about how Princess Peach’s “Toadstool” name came to be.
In the Japanese version of Super Mario Bros., the character was simply known as Princess Peach. However, for the U.S. version, it changed to Princess Toadstool. It turns out that this happened due to the ad agency coming up with the name on its own.
Just a few days after launch, Ubisoft has already come out with the first update for the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Star Wars Outlaws.
Various enhancements and fixes are included. Players will find clearer visuals when moving quickly through the world or using binoculars, user interface updates and performance improvements.
The full rundown is as follows:
Old School Rally was previously announced for Nintendo Switch, but we’re now hearing that a physical release is in the cards as well. Meridiem will be bringing it out on December 4, 2025.
Although it’s said to be a special edition, this is largely a standard release. As a bonus though, a set of car cards will be included.
A new video comparison has come online for the Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series S versions of Star Wars Outlaws.
The game comes to Nintendo’s latest console after its initial launch last year. Although there were some questions about the port a bit before launch, it turns out that Ubisoft has come out with something that’s quite good.
