Today marks the release of Mario Tennis Aces, the next installment in the long-running Mario Tennis series. Unfortunately, however, players have discovered that there are two important options missing from the game: the ability to adjust the length of the match and to choose what court to play on.
A stage select feature is fairly common in titles like Aces, but instead, the game randomly chooses from the seven available courts without any player input. You do have the possibility to disable all stages but the one you want to play on, but it ends up being an unnecessarily tedious process.
Many hope that Nintendo will add these features, as additional characters are being planned in the coming months. Thus far, Aces has a respectable score of 77 on Metacritic, with critics praising its refined mechanics despite a rather shallow single player experience.
Vertical Reach has announced that the puzzle game Yuso is releasing on July 5 for Switch. Pricing is set at $7.99.
You’ll need to clear the screen of Yuso while playing as a space doctor traveling the Solar System. As you progress, the difficulty will increase with later stages in particular posing a high degree of challenge.
Alolan Exeggutor was added to Pokemon GO in late May, with its event wrapping up by early June. The Pokemon disappeared at the time, but has since returned. Alolan Exeggutor can be found freely roaming in the wild.
Some Pokemon GO players are saying that Alolan forms with regular Kanto pre-evolutions can be seen in the wild, hence this creature’s return. Other Alola variants are hidden inside Pokemon Eggs, but since fully-evolved Pokemon don’t hatch from Eggs, they could be out in the wild instead.
To get fans acquainted with the game, Nintendo held a Mario Tennis Aces Pre-launch Online Tournament demo. Switch owners around the world were given an opportunity to battle against others online.
Just a short while ago, Nintendo revealed the top 100 players revealed for North America. See the final scores and most-used characters out of the group below.

Turtle Cream isn’t giving up on 3DS – or more specifically, the New 3DS. The studio announced this week that I.F.O is coming to the eShop on June 28.

Digital Foundry has put the new Switch version of Paladins to the test. What we learn is that, ultimately, Hi-ReZ Studios has done a great job with the port from a technical perspective.
Paladins manages to hit a mostly smooth 60 FPS on Switch. Despite a few small hiccups here and there, you’re getting a consistent frame rate for the most part.
