As we reported reported last month, Atooi had been gauging interest in a potential version of 2D platformer Chicken Wiggle for the Switch that would be supported via Kickstarter. Today, the developer has announced they will be launching a campaign on March 6 to do just that with Chicken Wiggle Workshop.
See the full details in the tweet below:
CHICKEN WIGGLE WORKSHOP takes all of the eggsellent content from the original Nintendo 3DS game and brings it to #NintendoSwitch with beautiful new HD artwork. A new @kickstarter campaign hatches next week, on March 6. This is no yolk! https://t.co/gvnVdsE9AH pic.twitter.com/NLeNzQdv7L

Best Buy is now taking pre-orders for Owlboy on the Switch. You can reserve your copy here.
Owlboy launches physically for Switch on May 29.
New footage is in showing off Outlast on the Switch. Check out the gameplay below:
Despite no prior announcements, Outlast showed up on the Switch eShop around the world today. Red Barrel Games has since confirmed some technical information.
When docked, Outlast runs at 1008p (apparently this isn’t a typo) on Switch. The resolution drops to the highest possible amount of 720p in portable mode. Also, in both modes, Outlast runs at 30 frames per second.
Outlast 2 will launch for Switch on March 27. Thus far, Red Barrel hasn’t provided any technical information about that title, but it’s possible that it will run at the same frame rate and resolution.
Nintendo introduced version 1.2.0 for Super Mario Odyssey last week. It added Luigi’s Balloon World, new outfits, and a couple of Snapshot Mode filters. Some other changes were made as well.
Aside from what we know about officially, it seems that 20 new thumbnails have been added. Dataminers apparently found these images contained within Super Mario Odyssey’s latest files.
Footage is in giving us a look at the new Extra Pack 2 DLC for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. Check out some gameplay below.
Last week, Bethesda and Panic Button dropped a new patch for Doom on Switch. Version 1.1.1 added motion aiming, improved performance, and more. Digital Foundry has now taken a new look at the title to explore the technical changes in greater detail.
In terms of resolution, there is a slight difference. Doom may have a slightly higher resolution in some areas, but the change is small enough where most players won’t be able to detect changes.
New footage of Kirby Star Allies was shown during a Chinese broadcast earlier today. You can watch the full recording with gameplay below.
Warner Bros. will soon be bringing out a new collection of LEGO Switch games. The LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game, LEGO City Undercover, and LEGO Worlds are being bundled together.
The LEGO 3 in 1 Collection launches in April. Judging by the packaging above, this will at least be a European release. It’s unclear if the same bundle will be sold in North America.
