Out of nowhere, Nintendo has just come out with a new “Close to You” animated video.
We’re not actually quite sure what this is as it was posted without any sort of explanation. But essentially, we’re treated to a very short “story” in which a toddler is going after his pacifier. Other than that, we can only be left to speculate what this is for and why Nintendo is releasing it now.
Commando Panda today announced that Twins of the Sun, its new game for Nintendo Switch, is launching this week. It will be available on Thursday, October 10.
Twins of the Sun is an action adventure game that supports two-player co-op, meaning the whole campaign can be played with a friend. After a mysterious figure kidnaps kidnaps their sister, a pair of wins will set off to rescue her.

A couple of years after it was initially made available, the Aftershock DLC for Ion Fury is finally heading to consoles, including Nintendo Switch. It’s planned for October 16, 2025.
There’s plenty of new content here for the first-person shooter. Aftershock adds a new campaign, new weapons, an Arrange mode, and more.
Here’s a full rundown:
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.

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.
