Super Mario Odyssey was featured during Nintendo’s Gamescom live stream earlier today. Towards the end of the first demo with producer Yoshiaki Koizumi, we’re able to see the name of another kingdom. That’s none other than the Seaside Kingdom.
It’s likely that we’ve already seen the Seaside Kingdom, though only very briefly. It’s likely where we see Mario capturing a Cheep Cheep in the trailer from E3.
Thanks to LukasManak for the tip.
Star Fox 2 is one of the games featured in the Super NES Classic Edition. However, it’ll take a tiny bit of work to unlock it. After you complete the first level in the original Star Fox, the sequel will be made available.
Here’s a look at the unlock process from GameXplain:

Original: A demo for the rhythm game Voez has gone live on the Japanese Switch eShop. It takes up 141MB of space, and has a few songs to try out. English speakers should be able to play through the demo without any issues.
Flyhigh Works announced a new 1.2 update for Voez early today. When downloaded, players will have access to twelve new songs.
It’s unclear if and when the Voez demo will be published outside of Japan. The eShop does update tomorrow, so there’s a possibility we’ll be getting some news then.
