The much anticipated Trainer Battles feature in Pokemon GO is now rolling out. Niantic is gradually rolling out the functionality, with Trainers level 30 and up currently able to access it. More Trainers should be able to play soon.
Here’s the notice about Trainer Battles going live:
Nintendo is gearing up for the next round of the ARMS Party Crash Bash. For those who missed it, the event is being held to determine the game’s best character.
The third round will be going live next week. This time around, it’ll be Helix and Max Brass battling it out. The theme is “Royal Jelly”.
The latest ARMS Party Crash Bash event goes live on December 21. It’ll last until December 24.
Nintendo of America recently filed a lawsuit against a man selling NES Classic Edition and Switch consoles with pirated games. Essentially, the illegitimate NES Classic had 800 ROMs for $15 above the retail price while the fake Switch hardware used Team Xecuter’s SX dongle and pirated games. Nintendo is going after this person on nine separate infringements. It’s interesting and we expect Nintendo to prevail here, but there’s something else from the situation which might be even more noteworthy.
Included in the lawsuit document is a tidbit about the Switch eShop. It calls out the “Nintendo Switch Online shop” that was “formerly Nintendo eShop”.
What could this mean? Will the Switch eShop be getting a simple name change? Is Nintendo planning a more in-depth makeover? Only time will tell.
