Initially, Melty Blood: Type Lumina’s latest update featuring new playable characters Neco-Arc and Mash Kyrielight was set to release today, August 19. While this update has gone live for most platforms, it seems something has fallen through for the Switch version.
As announced by the developers, the newest update for Melty Blood: Type Lumina, including both the new characters and balance changes, has been delayed for Switch. The update is still set to release on the platform, but no new date for it has been provided, with the developers assuring that they’ll provide more information once a new schedule is set.
According to Serebii, it has just been announced that Pokemon Shuffle, the free-to-play 3DS eShop Pokemon puzzle game, will be ending service on March 31 2023. For the sake of clarity, this is exclusively affecting the 3DS version; no announcements have been made regarding the mobile versions of Pokemon Shuffle.
Even with the game’s online service ending, you’ll still be able to play through Standard Stages and any Event Stages already downloaded. What will be disabled, however, is the ability to acquire daily login bonuses, play Ranked Stages, and download Event Stages.
This news doesn’t come as a huge surprise given prior announcements of the Wii U and 3DS eShops ending purchases on March 27, 2023. If you want to be able to experience Pokemon Shuffle’s Event Stages on 3DS in the future, make sure to download them in the coming months.

Wave Race 64 has just released for Nintendo Switch Online, and we can now take a look at how this version of the game compares visually to past iterations. In this Gamexplain video, the Switch version is first compared to the N64 original, before then being compared to the more modern Wii U version.
As is expected, the Switch version is certainly an improvement over the more jagged N64 original, and since Wii U ports of N64 games tended to make things a little darker, the Switch brightens it up in comparison to be truer to its initial release.
Here is some more information about Wave Race 64:
