We have the Nintendo maintenance schedule for the week of November 19, 2023. Currently there’s one session planned involving Switch voice chat.
Here’s the full maintenance schedule for the week of November 19, 2023:
According to an ESRB listing, Konami intends to bring back the classic Felix the Cat game as a re-release for Switch and other platforms. An official announcement should follow soon.
The classification was just added to the database. It’s described as “a collection of action platformers in which players help Felix save his girlfriend from an evil professor. Players traverse 2D pixelated environments while using gadgets and vehicles (e.g., punching glove, tank, submarine) to defeat small cartoony creatures. Enemies typically fall from the screen when hit; some boss encounters depict whimsical pistol attacks, cartoony bombs, and mild explosions.”
An eShop listing has appeared for Cattails: Wildwood Story, revealing that the release date is coming up very soon. It should be ready to go on November 30, 2023.
Cattails: Wildwood Story was originally confirmed for Switch in May 2022 following a successful Kickstarter campaign. While it’s been on PC for about a year, we’ve been waiting for the game on Nintendo’s console.
A new round of gameplay for the Switch version of The King of Fighters XIII Global Match. This week, SNK brought it to Switch.

Super Mario RPG just launched on Switch, and if you’ve been playing the game, then you’ve probably leveled up your characters once or twice. Or ten times. Either way, you might be wondering how to grind extra experience points and which characters’ stats you should increase when they do level up. We’ve gathered all this information and more in our Super Mario RPG level up guide. There are light spoilers ahead, including a small reference to the game’s final area and all of the game’s party members, but nothing else too major. Keep that in mind before you continue.
A recent issue of Nintendo Dream contained a new developer interview for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and one section touched on Zelda herself. The magazine discussed her specific story in the game as well as her character and growth, her new hairstyle, and more with director Hidemaro Fujibayashi.
We’ve gone ahead and translated the excerpt below. Just keep in mind that there is a light spoiler touching on one of the cutscenes, though only briefly.
Another Indie World Showcase took place this week, marking what should be Nintendo’s final notable presentation of 2023. It contained the usual slew of indie titles for Switch with some new announcements, shadowdrops, and smaller updates.
The event opened up with Shantae: Risky Revolution, which we previously knew about, but was officially confirmed for Switch. We also finally got an update on Outer Wilds, which heads to the console next month. On Your Tail, Blade Chimera, Core Keeper, and Planet of Lana were some of the other notable titles. Backpack Hero, Howl, Enjoy the Diner, and Passpartout 2 all hit the eShop that day. The full recap can be found here.
