Team17 announced a new partnership with Sold Out last week. The two sides are working together to bring Overcooked, Worms W.M.D., and Yoku’s Island Express to retail on Switch.
GaamesIndustry spoke with Sold Out CEO Garry Williams following the news. In his view, the notion that third-party games struggle to sell on Nintendo platforms is a bit of an exaggeration.
SEGA has prepared a launch trailer for Sonic Forces, which officially comes to Switch tomorrow. See the video below.
Last week, Nicalis announced that a physical version of Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap will be released in North America towards the start of next week. We can also now say that the same package will be offered in Europe and Australia.

Update: You can pre-load Doom on the North American Switch eShop now as well.
Original: Pre-loading on the Switch eShop is beginning to become more and more common. The latest game to have made this option available is Doom, which arrives later this week. Switch owners in Europe can begin pre-loading Doom now.
On another note, we also have an update on the file size. It was sitting at around 13.4GB. Now, however, it’s at 21.3GB. That likely means multiplayer will be built in rather than a separate download, despite what was thought last week.
Thanks to Matthew M for the tip.

Nintendo has more maintenance lined up for all of its platforms this week. Switch, Wii U, and 3DS will be impacted over the next few days. Online play may be impacted.
Here’s the latest maintenance schedule:
Black Friday 2017 is just a few weeks away. With the big savings event so close, it’s no surprise that some of the deals are beginning to leak.
Target is first out of the gate. Unsurprisingly, some Nintendo deals are planned. Target is teasing games for $15, $25, $30, and $35. The full list is unknown at this time, but we’re aware that something like LEGO Worlds will be down to that $15 price point.
Capcom provided its latest financial results today, and revealed new data for both Ultra Street Fighter II and Monster Hunter XX for Switch.
Capcom once again that Ultra Street Fighter II was “a smash hit”. The game has shipped 500,000 copies worldwide thus far.
