Moltres started to show up in Pokemon GO Raid Battles today as the newest Legendary Pokemon. Take a look at some footage below.
Nicalis has shown quite a bit of support for Switch thus far. The publisher already shipped The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ and Cave Story+ with even more titles on the way.
As for what lies ahead, Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez teased in a recent interview:
“We have several more games coming out on the Switch this year, some familiar and some brand new. You’ll have to wait and see!”
Nicalis will be bringing Blade Strangers, The End is Nigh, Ittle Dew 2, and Tiny Barbarian DX to Switch. It’ll be interesting to see what else is in store.

Splatoon 2 has received a new Japanese commercial just ahead of the first true Splatfest this coming weekend. We’ve got the advert below.
Update: Version 3.0.1 addresses an issue in which the remaining battery charge isn’t displayed accurately. If the system’s battery power display suddenly increases or decreases, Switch owners are advised to follow these steps. You should see a gradual improvement.
Original: A new firmware update has just been issued for all Switch consoles. Version 3.0.1. is now available for download.
Thus far, Nintendo hasn’t shared any details about the update, but we don’t expect it to be as significant as the last one. That’s usually the case when we see small increase in version numbers.
We’ll update this post when we find out more about today’s update.
Aragami Director’s Cut is coming to Switch, according to a listing from French retailer fnac. No release date is mentioned unfortunately, nor any word on what could be new in this version of the game.
Aragami originally came out last year. It’s a third-person stealth game in which you play as an undead assassin with the ability to control the shadows. Some of the mechanics include using teleportation to reach any shadow, becoming invisible, materializing weapons, and summoning a shadow dragon to infiltrate the enemy ranks and dispose of your targets.
Continue on below for a more extensive overview of Aragami plus a trailer.
Nintendo prepared its latest Japanese tweet for Super Mario Odyssey. The company published two images, both of which are primarily intended to be used as wallpaper for smartphones.
Here’s where things get interesting. The pink moon shown in the wallpaper is a different color than the yellow moons we’ve seen in the Cascade Kingdom, suggesting that the Cheep Cheep one is separate. So based on that, we’d have at least seven kingdoms in Super Mario Odyssey.
They would be:
– Metro Kingdom
– Sand Kingdom
– Wooded Kingdom
– Luncheon Kingdom
– Cascade Kingdom
– Cap Kingdom
– Cheep Cheep Kingdom
We’re going off of the assumption that the Cascade Kingdom is separate from the areas we’ve seen with the Cheep Cheeps. That’s not absolutely confirmed, but it does make sense based on the moons.
We got our first glimpse of Harvest Moon: Light of Hope back at E3 in June. We now have a (slightly) better look at the game with another video below.
Worth noting, Natsume says that Harvest Moon: Light of Hope’s E3 appearance was based on a “very early build”.
