Space Invaders Get Even, a WiiWare game that first debuted in 2008, may have a chance at making a comeback. Taito director Yuichi Toyama sounded open to revisiting the title when asked about a potential return in an interview with Wccftech.
Toyama mentioned, “we’d love to be able to release it” if there’s enough fan demand. However, there would need to be some tinkering with the control scheme, which could be reworked with the Switch touch screen. It’s also possible to go in another direction with a bit of a different design.
Toyama’s full words:
The 2D action-platformer Horned Knight was announced for Switch a few months ago, and now we have a concrete release date. It will be out on February 26, according to an eShop listing.
We have the following overview and trailer for Horned Knight:
505 Games and Digital Continue have shared the full patch notes for the recent Drawn to Life: Two Realms update. We previously noted that version 1.1 adds touch screen support for the Draw Tool and new content, but a number of issues have been addressed as well.
Below are the full patch notes:
Listings on the eShops provide file sizes for a bunch of Switch games. These include Crash Bandicoot 4, Everhood, Paperball Deluxe, and more.

Plans for games often change during development, and Dragon Quest XI is no exception. In a recent interview published by Square Enix, 3D art director Yoshiko Hiyama revealed that for Heliodor, there was originally “an idea to include a well that connects to an underground area – an element that follows traditional gameplay found in Dragon Quest games.”
That plan was scrapped, though it did end up elsewhere. As for why it didn’t make sense in Heliodor, Hiyama said the city “was already quite voluminous” and there was already a secret passage.
Hiyama’s full words:
You may recall that, in December, Nintendo released a new “Remastered” update for Swapnote. The whole situation was rather confusing. Not only was there any indication of what was new or changed, but it seemed random to issue an update for an application that hadn’t been touched in quite some time.
Now it’s been made clear what the situation was about. As pointed out by OatmealDome, Nintendo only put out the patch to address a vulnerability in which an attacker could potentially run any sort of code they created over StreetPass. MrNbaYoh earned nearly $1,700 by reporting the exploit to Nintendo.
A new month rolled right on in last week. Now that we’re in February, we want to know what you’ve been playing.

For as long as the world has known Mario, he’s essentially had one voice. Charles Martinet has been playing the character for around three decades.
We know that Mario has his first ever animated movie coming up, though it’s unclear if Martinet will be involved. During an interview with Stardust Blaze, he mentioned that the film “sounds like great fun, and if they invite me to play, I’ll go in and play with great joy and happiness.”
