Publisher Forever Entertainment and developer Different Tales today announced that Wanderlust Travel Stories is coming to Switch. It’ll be out on the eShop sometime in February, though a specific date hasn’t been shared just yet.
Here’s an overview of Wanderlust Travel Stories, along with a trailer:

Super PowerUp Games today announced Speedway Racing, a new type of arcade racing game for Switch. A release window was not shared.

A couple minutes ago, both the official English and Japanese Twitter accounts of Platinum Games posted the image above, showing Hideki Kamiya at his desk. His computer monitors are completely black, except for the Platinum Games logo and the date and time on the left one. You’ll notice that the time says “1:01” – a possible reference to The Wonderful 101. Many fans are already speculating that this might be Platinum’s way of teasing something related to The Wonderful 101, possibly a port of the game for Nintendo Switch. Naturally, this picture by itself isn’t confirmation of anything – while it’s unlikely that the monitor prominently displaying that exact time behind Hideki Kamiya, who was the director of The Wonderful 101, is a coincidence, Platinum Games are known for being cheeky and sometimes putting out references to their games that don’t necessarily mean anything.
Still, the company have talked about The Wonderful 101 and a possible future of the series recently. In June of last year, Platinum Games stated that they’ve been doing “a lot of intel gathering” about the game. Also, in February of last year, Atsushi Inaba, who was the producer of the game, said that he’s interested in releasing The Wonderful 101 again. Back in 2017, they posted some artwork of some The Wonderful 101 characters playing on a Nintendo Switch.
What do you think? Are Platinum Games actually teasing something here? Or are they just having fun?
Bridge Constructor Ultimate Edition is out today on the Switch eShop. Here’s roughly half an hour of footage from the game, courtesy of Handheld Players:
The reveal of the new Animal Crossing-themed Nintendo Switch caused quite a stir on the internet last night. Nintendo has now confirmed that the special system will also be available in Europe, though with a few differences. Instead of March 13 like in North America, the system will be available on March 20, the same day Animal Crossing: New Horizons launches. As such, the system also comes with a download code for Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It seems like the Animal Crossing-themed Switch will only be available in this bundle and can’t be purchased separately in Europe.
Nintendo also confirmed that the two AC-themed Carrying Cases will be available in Europe on March 20 as well.
Finally, here’s a brief trailer showing off the system:
Bandai Namco has released two more character trailers for One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4, showing off Jinbe and Carrot. Take a look:
The latest Twitter update has introduced us to another new character: Alphard (voiced by Daisuke Hirakawa), a member of the Church of Seiros who is responsible for overseeing the Abyss. The place used to be plagued by famine and criminality, but thanks to him, it is now in a state of relative peace and order.
He’s described as a calm and compassionate individual, who managed to earn the trust of the denizens of the Abyss, despite their distrust of the Church. He is the one who pushed for the creation of the Ashen Wolves house.
You can see a video of Alphard interacting with the player here in the original tweet here:
