Due to the situation surrounding the coronavirus, The Wonderful 101: Remastered’s retail release has been delayed. It will now ship in North America on June 30 and July 3 in Europe.

Nintendo released a new video today showcasing a few European digital game highlights from April 2020. You can watch it below.
Update: Eurogamer is running a similar story. The site says Nintendo “has told publishers set to reveal games during its showcase that it needs more development time on its first-party games.” Additionally, “publishers have been told not to wait if they wish to make their own reveals individually.”
Original: Usually when June rolls around, you can generally expect Nintendo to host a presentation of some kind. That used to be in the form of in-person conferences at E3, but in recent years, the company shifted to Nintendo Directs instead.

VentureBeat is reporting that Nintendo has told partner developers it will not hold a Nintendo Direct during the month. The site says “complications brought about from Japanβs work-from-home order as part of its attempts to mitigate COVID-19 are forcing Nintendo to push back its schedule.”
Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ latest update introduced some new characters, including Jolly Redd. He occasionally shows to sell in-game art, as well as furniture with unique colors. True to previous entries in the series, players have to figure out which art pieces are real and which are fake.
What players may not initially know is that much of the fake artwork changes based on when you look at them. That happens in the morning, and then reverts back to how it looked originally in the evening.
