Nintendo posted a new trailer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on their Japanese Youtube channel. The video gives an overview of Smash’s basic gameplay, the fighters, the game’s various modes and more:
The latest Grand Conquest begins on November 22, but you can already pre-register for it. Sign up so you can play in the three-army battle between Roy, Lilina, and Cecilia on the continent of Elibe.
Even though Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is the best-selling third-party game title for Switch and Starlink: Battle for Atlas heavily featured Star Fox, Nintendo still makes up a small percentage of Ubisoft’s earnings. A recent report shows that sales on Nintendo platforms only made up 3% of their overall sales in Quarter 2 of 2018, less than when Mario + Rabbids was a newer release. It’s interesting data but doesn’t mean Ubisoft isn’t continuing to prioritize their partnership with Nintendo, just that it has much more content pointed towards other consoles and PC.
Pocket Camp has another event to celebrate its 1st year anniversary. They’re inviting players to post a screenshot of their own unique campsites through the Pocket Camp app from tomorrow through November 25. No word on if there’s a prize for doing so, though it certainly wouldn’t be surprising if there was.
Warframe is celebrating tomorrow’s launch on Switch with a little gift. Players can receive a free starter pack of in-game items through the Inbox until December 4 at 11:59 PM ET.
Here’s the full lineup of rewards:
NPD’s Mat Piscatella is back at it again with more classic data. This time around, we have a look at the top ten best-selling games in the United States since 1995 that were exclusive.
Amazingly enough, Nintendo holds the entire top ten. Wii generated the most hits for Nintendo, including Wii Fit at #5. In fact, the entire top five is comprised of Wii titles. New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart have to representatives each while the lone N64 game is Super Mario 64.
Fire Emblem Heroes is preparing for a new summoning event. This week, players will be able to get their hands on Ylgr and Surtr. A new Paralogue Story will also be included.
Fire and Ice in Fire Emblem Heroes starts on November 21. View a trailer for what’s in store below.
Earlier today, Super Robot Wars T was announced for Switch. Bandai Namco had only confirmed plans for Japan, but we now have some rather interesting news as the game is seeing a wider release in Asia – and in English to boot.
It’s unclear if Super Robot Wars T will launch in North America and/or Europe. Even so, we already have confirmation of English support thanks to the upcoming launch in Asia.
Super Robot Wars T is scheduled for 2019. View an English trailer below, along with a developer message.
Nintendo has posted another update to the Smash Bros. Blog for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around, we have an introduction to the Guile Assist Trophy.
Here’s the overview:
The next firmware update is now live on Switch. Nintendo has started distribution of version 6.2.0.
Nintendo mentions the following about today’s update in its notes: “General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience.”
