This month, news made the rounds concerning certain Switch owners who have been abusing the avatar functionality. After hacking the system, these users have been able to display any image as their profile icons.
Unfortunately, this became a problem in Super Mario Odyssey. One player encountered a hacked profile that showed a pornopgraphic image through Luigi’s Balloon World.
Temtem, the Pokemon-inspired monster battling RPG, will support cross-platform play. Developer Crema has said that the plan is for all formats to work with each other, except for the PlayStation 4 present. That means Switch players will be able to connect with those on the likes of Xbox One and PC.
Temtem exceeded its $70,000 funding goal on Kickstarter. Over $400,000 has been raised thus far, and Crema intends to have the game ready in 2019.
Hollow Knight has done exceptionally well on Switch thus far. In its first two weeks, the game has sold over 250,000 copies on Nintendo’s console. Team Cherry confirmed the news to IGN.
Since its release, Hollow Knight has been at the top of the eShop charts. Team Cherry has stated that the team is working towards a physical version.

Will we see those collaborations continue in the future? Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has indicated as such.
A new wave of concept art is in for Kirby Star Allies. Two enemies get the focus: Driblee and Float Slime. We’ve attached the different images below.
With Float Slime, the team always knew that it would be in water. Driblee is also based around water.
Before Switch was announced, no one could have predicted how much support Bethesda would be giving the system. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim got things started late last year, followed by Doom. The Wolfenstein II also just launched on the platform today. Fallout Shelter was released earlier in the month, and The Elder Scrolls: Legends is planned for later this year.
Gamereactor interviewed Bethesda’s Todd Howard at Gamelab this week. When asked if there’s interest in bringing over a mainline Fallout, he said:
Adult Swim Games and Rekim published a new “Aim & Shoot” trailer for Pool Panic, which launches July 19. We have it below.
