Hero is the next DLC character joining Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Aside from a vague summer release window, Nintendo hasn’t said when he’ll be joining the game. Of course, that hasn’t stopped the rumor mill, which has ranged from a reveal early next week, to the end of Evo 2019, to possibly the start of August. At this point, no one really knows.
One interesting development is that a series of new Dragon Quest spirits have now been spotted on Nintendo’s servers. When Hero is added, he’ll be joined by these new spirits.
Here’s a look at what’s been found as of now:

Rather than charging for fixes after expired warranty, going forward, all repairs of the controllers will be free. This mainly applied to North America based on what we had initially seen, but it looks like other regions are starting to get involved.
The latest update concerns Latin America. Free Joy-Con repair is now being offered in the region, according to an authorized Nintendo repair shop in Costa Rica. We’ll keep you informed about any other updates to the situation.
