eShop, Minecraft maintenance taking place on November 13 / November 14
Nintendo has started to prepare its maintenance schedule for next week. Maintenance is planned for both November 13 and November 14, impacting the eShops and Minecraft.
The full schedule is as follows:
TechRadar was recently able to go hands-on with the new Switch version of L.A. Noire. The site reported on functionality that Nintendo’s system offers, gameplay tweaks, and more.
Here’s a roundup of information:
Dumb & Fat Games has partnered with Humble Bundle to bring Wandersong to Switch. The musical platforming adventure is scheduled to be released in early 2018 in both North America and Europe.
Wandersong features rainbow paper cutout visuals, over ten hours of gameplay, and a soundtrack from audio experts A Shell in the Pit (Rogue Legacy, Night in the Woods). We have more information about the game below, along with a trailer.
Rockstar Games has produced a Switch-specific trailer for L.A. Noire. Get a look at today’s new video below.
A new trailer has been released for Batman: The Telltale Series, which comes to Switch next week. Have a look at it below.
Early Black Friday deals are still surfacing, with Walmart being the latest retailer to have its upcoming sales made known.
One early highlight is that Walmart will have the new Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Explorer’s Edition for $49. A number of games will be sold for $20, including Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Switch and Rayman Legends Definitive Edition. At the $30 price point will be titles like 1-2-Switch, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Mario Sports Superstars, and more.
Below are the relevant excerpts from Walmart’s Black Friday ad:

Nintendo just issued the weekly Nintendo Download report per usual. However, something is tucked away inside that would seem very important.
Nintendo lists Hulu as one of today’s new releases on Switch. The official page is currently offline, but it should be up by the time the eShop updates later today.
In the past, Nintendo has mentioned that video streaming services would eventually come to Switch. It looks like that’s happening sooner than expected.
