As mentioned earlier today, Disney Tsum Tsum Festival is due out in Japan on October 10. Alongside the game’s launch, a special Switch bundle will be offered.
The package includes a Switch system in addition to a copy of Disney Tsum Tsum Festival plus a code for DLC costumes in the actual game. Both the dock and Joy-Con have been specially-made (the home button is even stylized after Mickey Mouse), and the Switch itself will have a design on the back. Note that this will be the updated model with the longer battery life.

Dragalia Lost has done fairly well for itself despite a couple of hurdles. For one thing, it continues to generate revenue even though it is still only available in just eleven markets. The game is also a totally original IP.
Since launch, Dragalia Lost has earned over $100 million worldwide. It has now overtaken Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp as Nintendo’s second highest earning mobile title. Fire Emblem Heroes is still well ahead of the pack at nearly $600 million.

Yesterday we heard that Nintendo would start to offer free repairs for faulty Joy-Con. This all came about after numerous complaints regarding drifting controllers, in which they would sent input to the console on their own. A lawsuit was also filed. Unfortunately, the free Joy-Con replacement policy doesn’t appear to be in effect worldwide – at least not yet.
The first example of this is in France. Numerama attempted to reach out to Nintendo’s customer service, and they denied having adopted a free Joy-Con replacement policy. French support claims it will still cost a customer €45 to replace a controller out of warranty.
