Fire Emblem Heroes received its big 1.5.0 update a few days ago. Following up on that, Nintendo has issued another small patch. Version 1.5.1 can be downloaded.

The lone note about the patch is: “Implemented bug fixes.” If you were encountering any issues after applying the recent update, hopefully you’ll have a smoother experience.

Outright Games announced this week that new games are in development based on Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time and Ben 10 franchises. No systems were mentioned, but we followed up and can now confirm that both will be available on a Nintendo platform.

Outright is keeping quiet on specific platforms. That being said, Switch does seem like a safe bet. We were told: “It is confirmed for Nintendo, we can’t just tell you at this point which platform but I am sure you can imagine which one that would be” – and with a wink emoji.

As for the upcoming titles, thus far we only have the following information:

“Focusing on creating high-quality license-based video games for the family entertainment market, Outright Games’ new titles will take characters from Cartoon Network’s popular original series Adventure Time and Ben 10 to create new experiences for fans and gamers alike. Adventure Time will feature the Land of Ooo submerged into watery chaos, where exploration, battle and even interrogation will be key skills to unplugging the mystery. Based on a brand new TV series of the beloved franchise, Ben 10 will introduce a fresh adventure in the incredible universe where some of Ben’s most infamous enemies await. Players must discover and unlock 10 alien transformations to aid Ben in saving the galaxy.”

The new Ben 10 game is slated for Q4 2017. Adventure Time is planned for early 2018.

Despite what we heard last year, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night may not opt for a staggered content model. If this is something the team decides to pursue, some features and content may come after the game’s launch.

That seemed like the plan back in 2016. However, creator Koji Igarashi has now said that a definitive decision has not been made. It’s something that’s being considered, and though the approach has certain benefits, “it’s something we’ll have to discuss later.”

Igarashi told Apptrigger:

Amazon UK posted the boxart for Monopoly on Switch… though it has now been removed upon checking on the listing for a second time. In any case, we’ve attached the packaging image above.

Ubisoft’s boxarts tend to be uniform across regions. The image should be the same in North America (just with an ESRB logo), but we’ll let you know if anything changes.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Just like yesterday, Amazon has the gray Switch unit in stock for Prime members. Orders can be placed here. Be quick, since this will probably sell out relatively quickly again.

If the big interview we translated with Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi wasn’t enough, TIME also has a discussion with the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 director. The latest discussion covers Switch vs. Wii U development, how the collaboration with Tetsuya Nomura came to be for certain character designs, and a possible Switch version of Xenoblade Chronicles X.

These excerpts and a few other notable ones have been posted below. You can read the full interview here.

HORI announced a keyboard for Switch last month. Cyber Gadget is making a similar accessory, and it’s rather interesting.

Unlike HORI’s offering, you can dock the Joy-Con on the left and right sides. However, doing so won’t charge the controllers. It can be convenient though, and may work very well with a game like Dragon Quest X in which chat is used.

Apparently the keyboard is compatible with the PlayStation 4 and PC, so it’s also multipurpose. It’s lightweight as well at just 250g.

Cyber Gadget’s keyboard is estimated for release in Japan at the end of September. Pricing is set at 3,578 yen.

Rain Games created the well-received Teslagrad on Wii U. This year, the studio also wrapped up World to the West, a title set in the same universe that should also be on the console soon.

Following up on those two games, Rain Games intends to create a third title set in the same universe. Naturally, with things in such as early state (it’s unclear if development has even started just yet), there’s nothing in the way of information for now. However, a release on Nintendo platforms is very likely given Rain Games’ previous support.
