The big update for Super Mario Run has gone live. Nintendo has started distribution of version 3.0.4.
Like Nintendo announced last week, today’s update adds a whole bunch of content. This includes Remix 10, World Star, playable Daisy, and the ability to listen to your own music. Also added are new buildings in Kingdom Builder mode and adjustments for Toad Rally.

FIFA 18 will be released on Switch tomorrow, September 29th, which marks the series’ return to Nintendo consoles after several years of absence. However, it seems like not all Switch users will actually get to play it tomorrow. As GoNintendo reports, German retailer Media Markt has told those who ordered the Switch version of the game that it won’t be arriving this week. Furthermore, the Switch version is currently unable to pre-ordered at several stores, such as Amazon or Gamestop, or had its release date changed to “coming soon” on Thalia.
It’s currently unknown what the issue seems to be, or why it’s only affecting the Switch version of the game. We also don’t know yet if the digital version is affected as well. Its release date is still listed as September 29th on the eShop in Germany, though we won’t know for sure until tomorrow.
Other than some concept art, the Super Mario World interview on Nintendo’s Japanese website with some of its original developers also reveals some fascinating tidbits about the game. One especially interesting part is about Mario and Yoshi – specifically, what exactly is Mario doing with his hand just before Yoshi sticks his tongue out?
Due to the graphical limitations of the SNES, it was never really clear if Mario points at something and tells Yoshi to go get it – or if he hits him on the head, which causes Yoshi to stick his tongue out in surprise. Turns out it was originally the latter, but it was officially changed to the former via some official artwork (though it’s still ambiguous with the in-game sprites). Here’s what Shigefumi Hino, who was the Character Graphic Designer on Super Mario World and who created Yoshi, had to say about it:
Looks like we are getting our next set of special heroes and it includes a lot of dancers. We are getting special versions of Olivia and Azura, but also our first male dancers in the form of their children Inigo and Shigure. Check out the video down below.
In a recent interview about the SNES Classic Edition developer interview they covered Super Mario World. In the interview we got some images of some original sprite work and a very noseless Yoshi. There are also a few other notable sprites including the red magic balloon and the different Hammer Bros. I can’t tell if Yoshi looks more adorable or horrifying in its original sprites.
Some footage has been uploaded from Tower of Babel on the Nintendo Switch, you can check out Super Nintendad’s video down below.
A Japanese launch trailer for Inversus Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch has been released and you can see it down below.
A new trailer is out for Fire Emblem Warriors and it focuses around Anna, who has now been officially announced. Check out the video below to see her in action.
Nintendo is readying another new update for ARMS. All signs point to it being available tomorrow in Japan, which should be the evening of September 28 (today) in North America.
Nintendo is being pretty darn cryptic about the update, but we’re not expecting it to be as big as the 3.0 patch. Still, it sounds like a stage is involved here. Nintendo basically said “that stage” for matches will be open to the public.
We’ll keep an eye out for additional details as they’re made available.
