Nintendo plans to celebrate Super Mario’s 35th anniversary with all sorts of games, events, and merchandise over the next few months. One part of this involves a Ninji Speedrun challenge. While the Nintendo Direct from a few days ago mentioned that it will be taking place in November, it may have been originally planned to be held much earlier in the year.
Nintendo Everything reader Wipeoutjack7 informed us about a “Super Mario Maker 2 35th Anniversary Challenge” page. However, it seems that it can’t be found directly on Nintendo’s website.
The page mentions:
Wargaming recently surprised everyone by releasing World of Tanks Blitz on Switch. Not only that, but it had the honor of being revealed and released on the same day during the latest Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase.
Nintendo Everything recently interviewed Thaine Lyman from Wargaming’s mobile studio to learn more about the experience of bringing World of Tanks: Blitz to Switch. The discussion also extended to the game’s surprise release as well as working with Nintendo.

It was announced last week that LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is seeing a rather significant delay. Rather than launching this year, the game is releasing in Spring 2021 instead.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will be distributed in two forms. Fans will be able to purchase a standard copy or the newly-revealed Deluxe Edition. With the Deluxe Edition, you’ll be getting six DLC packs in a Character Collection bundle: The Mandalorian Pack 1, The Madalorian Pack 2, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Classic Characters, Solo: A Star Wars Story, and Star Wars: The Bad Batch. Luke Skywalker is also featured with a LEGO minifigure.
You can pre-order LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Deluxe Edition on Amazon, Best Buy, or GameStop.
