The Wall Street Journal published a rather interesting article yesterday. The publication talked about mature / risqué games on Switch, and how Nintendo is very open to having these types of games on the console. Although the full piece is behind a paywall, we do have some excerpts.
The Nintendo Treehouse Log saw a flurry of activitiy this past week. Four separate entries were published on the Tumblr page. Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, Super Mario Odyssey, Monster Hunter Stories, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim alll received some love.
Each one of these blogs updates cover various topics about the games. With Skyrim for example, Nintendo talks about comparisons to Zelda: Breath of the Wild and more.
We’ve included excerpts from the different posts with links to each below.

We also have some new screenshots from of Gear.Club Unlimited, including actual gameplay images. Get a look at those below.
More and more ads for Super Mario Odyssey have been appearing in Japan during the lead up to the launch. Another billboard located in Shibuya is shown above.
We’ve seen a couple of other billboards over the past few weeks as well. One featured Mario in Shiveria, and another involved Steam Gardens.
