Nintendo is back with another trailer for Dr. Mario World. Have a look at the latest video below promoting more of the game’s doctors and assistants.
It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. This week, Pokemon Sword/Shield remains at the top for Nintendo titles and Animal Crossing: New Horizons is back in the top five.
Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 20 and June 26.
Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have updated Fire Emblem Heroes once again. Version 3.7.0 is here, which features updates to Aether Raids as well as new weapon skills and weapons to refine.
Below are the full detail:
Lab Zero Games hosted a panel at Anime Expo 2019 this week, and dedicated a significant amount of time to its Metroidvania RPG Indivisible. That included news about the release date – or lack thereof.
Last we heard, Indivisible was on track for 2019. That’s still the case, but Lab Zero Games wasn’t able to share the release date at its panel. The good news is that they do have a date in mind internally, and it will be announced soon. Lab Zero said the game will arrive “sooner than you think.”
Lab Zero added that Indivisible is “really close to being done.” The studio is now in the final stages of bug fixing, polish, and balancing.
During a recent live stream, Gun Media showed the first footage from Friday the 13th: The Game Ultimate Slasher Edition on Switch. Get a look at the recording below.
Famitsu reported a few days ago that Super Mario Maker 2 shifted nearly 200,000 copies in its first week. Dengeki has things quite a bit lower at 163,000 units, but regardless, it’s the best debut for the series yet. The Wii U and 3DS versions each sold about 150,000 copies in their first weeks.
Dengeki also mentions that Super Mario Maker 2 sold through about 55 percent of its initial shipment. That’s comparable to the 56 percent for the Wii U original and 50 percent for the 3DS edition.
We’ll also mention here that Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball for Switch sold 79,000 copies in its first week with a sell-through rate of 65 percent. However, since Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball 2018 sold 192,000 units on PS4 and PS Vita, Dengeki feels that the Switch release is off to a bit of a slow start.
A number of new deals are up and running on the North American Switch eShop. These include Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy, Valkyria Chronicles 4, and more.
Here’s the full roundup of sales:
System: Switch
Release date: June 25, 2019

Have you ever wanted Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and SEGA to be personified as anime girls? If for some bizarre reason you answer “yes,” then the Neptunia franchise should be right up your alley. Since the release of the first Neptunia game in 2010, this Japanese RPG series has presented fanciful takes on the age-old console wars. With Super Neptunia RPG, the franchise finally makes its debut on a Nintendo system, as well as its first foray into 2D game design. While this latest entry features all the charm and fast-paced gameplay that make the series so endearing, the larger package feels so rough around the edges that it can be hard to recommend.
Nintendo has opened the North American website for Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Access the official page here.
There isn’t too much to see at present, but the site does have a trailer, screenshots, and rundown of details. Information about the Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers is also available.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses launches in just a few weeks, so the full-blown version of the site should be opening soon.
