Nintendo has announced the results of the second round for the Kirby Copy Ability Poll. Sleep was the winner, and will be added to Kirby Battle Royale later this week.
Sleep was actually the top choice around the world. Nintendo has actually announced the top ten results overall, as well as the top five in North America, Europe, and Japan.
The developers behind Rime are still trying to get the Switch version in order. A meaty patch remains in the pipeline, and the team shared a status update today.
The new update is currently in Nintendo’s hands for approval. Things can now either go in one of two ways. Either Nintendo approves it, or denies it. The latter could potentially happen since the update “is larger than normally permitted”.
Pokken Tournament DX’s new update has gone live. Version 1.2.0 has just started distribution.
Oddly, Nintendo’s patch notes only make mention of a couple of things. Compatibility with Battle Pack Wave 1 has been added, along with support for video capture.
At least for now, the patch notes don’t cover any of the many balance changes. We’ll add them in here if Nintendo shares the details, but for the time being, we’ve included the unofficial translation below.
The latest episode of Nintendo’s Japanese show Nyannyan Neko Mario Time has now gone live. We’ve included it below.
Nintendo just published a new Japanese trailer for Bayonetta 1 and 2 on Switch. Find the video attached below.

We have some additional details and a trailer for Siegecraft Commander below.
Last month, we reported the GBA game Gekido Kintaro’s Revenge would be coming to the Switch. At that time, we weren’t sure when to expect the game, other than it was “coming soon.” Today on Twitter, Naps Team revealed that Gekido Kintaro’s Revenge will be ready for release Q1 2018.

In a previous FQA, Nintendo stated users will no longer be able to add Wii Points, the Wii Shop Channel’s currency, to their accounts beginning March 26. Today, the company announced the functionality will be disabled on this date at 1:00 PM (PT). Users who want to purchase Wii Points will need to do so before this time. This is in preparation for the closure of the Wii Shop on January 30, 2019.
We have a handful of new screenshots showing off Bayonetta and its sequel on Switch. Get a look at the images in the gallery below.
