Two quick Fire Emblem Heroes updates today: first up, it’s Thursday, which means that the Tactics Drills got updated. Two maps were added to the Skill Studies section today: Brave Celica and Veronica & Brave Hector and Ephraim.
Also, the rewards for Feh’s Summer Quiz have been sent out set. Since all answers were answered correctly by the majority of players, everyone will receive 10 Orbs and 5,000 Hero Feathers. Also, every player will receive 1 Orb for each question they answered, no matter if the answer was correct or not.
The Summertime Bug Catching event is live and by completing the goals you can earn items. One potential prize is Bunnie’s li’l red cookie, which is “packed full of lovely Little Red Riding Hood-themed furniture and clothing!”
The Summertime Bug Catching event runs until August 30. If 3 million horned dynastids are caught by its end, everyone will receive 50 Leaf Tickets. The official Animal Crossing Twitter account will regularly share how many have been caught so far.

The Nintendo Switch Online website has updated with a notable piece of information. For the NES games included with the subscription service, it will be possible to voice chat during play sessions. That’ll be done through the Nintendo Switch Online app.
Nintendo’s website states:
Nintendo has experimented with a couple of different business models on mobile. Super Mario Run is a one-time download, whereas Fire Emblem Heroes and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp are free-to-play.
Super Mario Run hasn’t generated the same type of profits as something like Fire Emblem Heroes. However, Shigeru Miyamoto has indicated that Nintendo will continue pursuing the fixed-cost model.
