Attack of the Earthlings is in the works for Switch, Team Junkfish has announced. A release is planned for this summer.
You can expect a turn-based extraterrestrial strategy game from Attack of the Earthlings. You’ll play as Swarmers, “a highly aggressive insectoid species, who must convert human flesh into alien muscle, evolve their units and even find the time to gatecrash a birthday party as they put a stop to the Earthlings’ interplanetary assault.” The game has a mix of turn-based combat and stealth.
Here’s more on Attack of the Earthlings, including a trailer:

During a live stream last night, Ace System Works confirmed that BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will include English dubs. Players will be able to choose between English and Japanese voices.
Arc System Works didn’t elaborate on the English dub. One interesting thing to note though is that Ruby was shown with an English voicing teamed up with Weiss who had Japanese voicing. It’s possible that you’ll be able to specify the voicing for each character.
Update: The My Nintendo website went into a little more detail on the process. In Europe, one Gold Point equals 1 cent, so if you have 500 Gold Points, you could buy a game that costs 5€ with those points or get a 5€ discount on a more expensive game.
Also, how many gold points you get per purchase is changing. Here are the new exchange rates for digital and physical games:
