As we reported on the start time over the weekend, Nintendo is now letting fans place orders for the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Pin Set #1. It can be obtained by completing a series of missions, including the purchase of Super Mario 3D All-Stars.
To recap, you need to complete five of the following:
Pokemon GO has announced a new collaboration with Longchamp Paris. There will be a new avatar backpack accessory item, special Pokemon wearing costumes, exclusive Field Research, and more.
Below are the full event details:
Microsoft announced today that it has acquired ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Bethesda Softworks. What might that mean for Switch owners? Potentially, not much.
Bethesda finally started to support a Nintendo console in Switch with the likes of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Doom, Wolfenstein, and more. Doom Eternal was also previously announced for the system, but it doesn’t have a release date. The question now is whether there will be future support. Xbox boss Phil Spencer did tell Bloomberg that Microsoft will decide on whether to launch Bethesda games on “other consoles” outside of Xbox “on a case by case basis.”
Microsoft has also confirmed that it is honoring any other agreements made prior to the acquisition. Based on that, as well as the company’s support for Switch with games such as Minecraft and Ori, we should still at least be getting Doom Eternal on Switch.
Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps are both getting a physical release as part of a special collector’s edition from iam8bit. However, if you’re not interested in spending $150, there’ll be an alternative option.
iam8bit has confirmed to Nintendo Everything reader StrawHatEevee that regular physical versions of the Ori games are planned. Not only that, but they’re arriving in just a few months – specifically December. There’s no word on pricing yet, but they’ll definitely be cheaper than the $150 collector’s edition.
But they told me in an e-mail that it’s December. Hope this info helps.
Thanks to StrawHatEevee for the tip.
