A bunch of gameplay is here for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble. Adventure Mode and Battle Mode are both showcased across more than 30 minutes of footage.
Here’s an overview of the game with more details:
System: Switch
Release date: June 27, 2024
Developer: Next Level Games / Tantalus
Publisher: Nintendo
When it was first released on the 3DS, Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon never really felt like a sequel to the Gamecube title to me, and it wasn’t until the release of Luigi’s Mansion 3 on Switch that its significance really hit home. But the game simply felt too ambitious for its own good at the time and felt like it would have been a better fit for the ailing Wii U, which was better equipped to deal with its increased scope, visual style, and was also in desperate need of more games, which the 3DS never had any shortage of. But with its release on the Switch, Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD feels as though it has finally been given some long overdue and much-needed room to breathe.
With June 2024’s Nintendo Direct all wrapped up, we thought it’d be a good time to pick five of the best Nintendo Directs and ask you: which one is your favorite of all time?
Nintendo Directs are no doubt one of the absolute highlights of being a Nintendo fan. In some ways, it sort of feels like we live “Direct to Direct” – after a presentation comes and goes, we’re already looking forward to the next one, no matter how far it is. The presentations vary in the quality and quantity of their announcements, but are always something to look forward to.
Radiant Tale: Fanfare is finally reaching the west, and a new trailer is here to celebrate. Aksys published the follow up to the original Radiant Tale in North America and Europe this week.

Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, which just came out on Switch, has received a new wave of gameplay. Almost a half hour of footage showcases the opening minutes.
Here’s a brief rundown of the title:
The 7 Star Sceptile Tera Raid Battle event for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is live now, and we have a guide for it ready to go. For this event, Sceptile is running Tera Dragon, which means it’s only weak to Dragon, Ice, and Fairy-type moves. The first wave of the event lasts until June 30, but it comes back for a second wave from July 5 to July 7. We’ve come up with a few counters you can bring to the battle here!
A new launch trailer is here for Spy x Anya: Operation Memories, as shared by Bandai Namco. The manga and anime-inspired game made it to Switch and other platforms today.

Super Nintendo World continues to evolve, and the theme park at Universal Studios Hollywood just added a new interactive wall. It can be found within the Frosted Glacier area.
According to Universal, the wall “is designed to challenge guests as they engage with familiar Super Mario characters within the dynamic land.” Visitors can collect digital coins and stamps through the Power-Up Band while keeping track of their score as they challenge themselves each time they play.
Going along with the release of Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, a new reward was just added to My Nintendo. Members can now claim a double keychain.
Luigi is featured here along with the Poltergust 5000. Also, the Polterpup is included as part of the design.
