Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap

Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap came to Switch earlier this year as a digital title. A physical version was announced not too long ago, though only for Asia. Nicalis has since announced a partnership with DotEmu for a retail release of the game in North America.

The physical version of Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap will ship in Q1 2018. It’ll be priced at $39.99.

Overwhelming fan demand, high ticket sales and sold-out auditoriums across the US has prompted additional screenings of Pokemon the Movie: I Choose You. The film will now be shown on November 11 and 14 in addition to the original November 5 and 6 dates.

Tickets can be purchased on Fathom Events here. Note that the Pokemon TCG card featuring Ash’s Pikachu wearing its Trainer’s hat and a QR Code that unlocks an in-game event and Ash’s Pikachu wearing its Trainer’s hat in Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon will not be offered for the November 11 and 14 screenings.

SteamWorld Dig 2

Kotaku caught up with Image & Form CEO Brjann Siegurgeirsson for a look back on the original SteamWorld Dig as well as its sequel. While speaking with the site, Siegurgeirsson revealed that the first game has sold over one million copies collectively.

One reason that SteamWorld Dig did so well is Nintendo’s promotion of the game. Siegurgeirsson spoke about how having it featured in a Nintendo Direct a few years ago boosted visibility:

An updated packaging image for the Switch version of WWE 2K18 confirms a download requirement for the physical version. If you plan on picking the game up, you’ll need 24GB of free space for an extra download.

Extra downloads for physical releases of Switch games are starting to become more common. Just a few hours ago, we heard about something similar with L.A. Noire. Doom will also have a separate download for multiplayer.

Box Hedge Games has pulled back the curtain on an interesting-looking project lined up for Nintendo platforms. The developer is currently planning Super Mighty Power Man for both Switch and 3DS.

Super Mighty Power Man is a 2D action-platformer that takes some clear inspiration from Mega Man. Other prominent games and series like Castlevania, Duck Tales, Kirby, Super Mario Bros., and Shovel Knight also served as reference points. The team itself joined together in 2016 with co-founders Alessandro Di Meco and David Richier having previously contributed to games such as Test Drive Unlimited, Kinect Disneyland Adventure, and Assassin’s Creed.

We’re aware that Box Hedge is working on a Kickstarter for Super Mighty Power Man. We’ve reached out to the studio to clarify how that campaign will impact development, if at all.

Find more information about Super Mighty Power Man below, along with a couple of additional screenshots.

Uno is heading to Switch next week in Japan, a listing on the eShop reveals. Ubisoft will be publishing the game on November 7. Pricing is set at 1,296 yen.

You’ll be able to play with up to four players either locally or online. Support for Switch’s touchscreen is also included.

Below are a few screenshots that also show off Rayman and Rabbids themes:

Uno for Switch was first made known through a PEGI listing, so it should be available soon in North America and Europe soon as well. But if you just can’t wait, English will be supported, so you shouldn’t have any issues if you purchase it from the Japanese eShop.
