Kirby’s ability to inhale enemies is a staple of the series. In Kirby’s Epic Yarn, however, this isn’t possible. Now that the game has returned on 3DS, producer Etsunobu Ebisu has revisited the subject.
Ebisu told Kotaku the following in a new interview when asked why Kirby’s signature move is missing:

Towards the end of the debut Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield trailer, we saw what looked like the player moving in a stadium-like building. Nintendo has now confirmed that these are indeed Gyms, and they house Gym Masters.
Past Pokemon games have had Gym Leaders. What difference, if any, will there be with Gym Masters? Only time will tell.
Game Informer has shared a new look at the gravity-defying puzzler Etherborn. Have a look at 10 minutes of gameplay below.
In February, Konami revealed Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution for Switch. Although it hasn’t been announced for any territories other than Japan, we may have some hope for a release overseas.
Konami has filed trademarks for Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution in a few new regions. It’s now registered in the United States, Europe, and South Korea. It wouldn’t make a ton of sense for these trademarks to be filed if Konami didn’t have any plans to use them, so hopefully we’ll be hearing something official about a western launch soon.
First 4 Figures has opened pre-orders for its new Mario and Yoshi statue following its reveal last week. You can put in a reservation here.
There are three different options to choose from, but each one is pricey. Pricing for the standard, exclusive, and definitive editions are set at $500, $525, and $675 respectively. The definitive edition adds a Yoshi egg with embedded magnets and a magnetized base for it to rest on.
Cosmoscope has rolled out the latest preview video for Morphies Law 2.0. We now have a look at how players can change loadouts at their base, or more specifically, the plugin and weapon they’re using. Over 500 unique combinations per slot are available with three slots total.
Here’s a look:
Fatbot Games and Merge Games have announced the dungeon crawler Vaporum for Switch. It’ll be available on the eShop starting April 11.
Vaporum uses a first-person perspective in an original steampunk setting. The game is inspired by old-school games such as Dungeon Master I and II, the Eye of the Beholder series, and Legend of Grimrock I and II.
Square Enix announced a new Octopath Traveler game for mobile earlier today. One reason why the company is interested in continuing the series is due to the success of the Switch game. Square Enix has revealed that Octopath Traveler has sold 1.5 million copies.
Octopath Traveler will also continue beyond the mobile title. Square Enix has confirmed that a new console game is in the works. Additionally, the company wrote on Twitter: “For those of you waiting for a new console game, we apologize, but we’ll need more time for production, so in the meantime we hope you’ll enjoy this.”
The party brawler Paperbound Brawlers launches on the Switch eShop today. For a look at some footage, check out the video below.
