Fortnite is known for many things, including a wide variety of collaborations. The popular shooter has teamed up with Marvel, Batman, Stranger Things, and the NFL – just to name a few. With the latest datamine, some fans are wondering if Nintendo could be primed for a collaboration of its own.
There’s one interesting piece of information that has been spotted in the game’s files following the most recent update: “Cosmetics.Source.Platform.Nintendo”. Unfortunately, no additional information is available as to what that could mean.
That hasn’t stopped fans from running wild with the possibilities. Some are speculating about the possibility of something like a Mario skin. Nothing official has been announced at this time though, so it might be best to keep expectations in check.
Monolith Soft tends to have a lot of work on its hands. Of course, the studio is well-known for its Xenoblade series. It also goes out of its way to help Nintendo on certain projects like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Monolith Soft definitely knows how to balance different games, and that experience certainly played a role over the past few years. Most recently, the developer completed Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, which launches on May 29. Director Tetsuya Takahashi revealed in this week’s issue of Famitsu that planning started at the end of 2017. Further, since the studio was also making the Torna expansion for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 in addition to a new project, they were at one point “working on three different projects simultaneously and had to organize our 1st Production members between the three titles.”
Here’s the full excerpt from Famitsu, as translated by Nintendo Everything’s Oni_Dino:
It’s been about a year since The Cuphead Show! was announced. The animated series, based on the hit game that’s currently available on Switch, will be debuting on Netflix in the future.
Tying in with the upcoming Annecy Animation Festival in June, a new promo image has been released that may give us a better idea about what sort of style The Cuphead Show! will be featuring. We won’t be seeing an identical recreation of the game due to the amount of work and time that would be required, but it’s going for a similar look.

As part of an update towards the end of April, Redd was added to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The character shows up on a boat, and players can purchase rare items and works of art from Jolly Redd’s Treasure Trawler.
The thing about Redd’s shop is that both fake and real art are up for grabs. But how exactly does the game determine what will appear in-game? New information from reliable dataminer Ninji reveals the inner workings.
