Nintendo has started a new Switch pre-load on the Japanese Switch eShop. Beginning now, players can prepare for Super Mario Odyssey in advance. You can buy the game ahead of time and download most of the relevant data. Doing so will let you play the digital version almost immediately at launch.
Super Mario Odyssey is Switch’s second pre-load option. The first was Snipperclips Plus, with Nintendo making the option available last week. Pre-loading has yet to start in either North America or Europe.

As of now, Switch’s new video capture feature is limited to a few first-party games. We know that Nintendo intends to expand the functionality to other titles, but we haven’t heard much on the third-party front.
Mutant Mudds Collection is at least one non-Nintendo release that should support video capture. Atooi founder Jools Watsham confirmed as much on Twitter.

In a recent interview, GQ sat down with Super Mario Odyssey director Kenta Motokura and producer Yoshiaki Koizumi in preparation for the launch of the upcoming Mario title. Motokura and Koizumi discuss deciding on new environments, creating Cappy, delving into Mario and Peach’s relationship, and maintaining Mario’s longevity as a character and franchise.
We’ve rounded up the notable quotes below. You can read the interview in full here.
As we reported last week, Retro City Rampage DX: Collector’s Edition had a delay in shipping (the standard edition shipped on time). Today, Vblank Entertainment announced on Twitter that the physical copies should be ready for shipping next week, along with the complementary four alternate covers as an apology. Hopefully fans won’t have to wait much longer.
Will hopefully be going out next week. They're scheduled to be finished assembly/shrinkwrapping this week.

MachineGames included a neat Easter egg of sorts in Wolfenstein II. You can actually play a new version of Wolfenstein 3D, a classic shooter that came out in the early ’90s.
Wolfenstein II’s take on the game is “Wolfstone 3D”. You’ll find it located in Club Kreisau as its own arcade cabinet. But in this version, there are a number of differences, such as how you fight Kreisau “terrorists” instead of Nazis. Wolfstone 3D has six levels and a save game system.
Here’s a look:
