Splatoon 2’s launch is less than two weeks away. In Japan, Nintendo is gearing up for the big day with new ads that are appearing in various places.
Splatoon managed to do extremely well in Japan even though Wii U wasn’t the hottest console around at the time. With Splatoon 2, its release is definitely going to be massive. The only unfortunate part of it all is that Nintendo won’t have nearly enough Switch supply to cover the demand.
Coming out of E3, Paste published an interview with Doug Bowser, head of marketing at Nintendo of America. Much of the discussion focused on the handheld market.
During the talk, Bowser was asked about the future of handhelds, whether 3DS game development is continuing, and more. He also took on questions about the durability of Switch’s screen and whether there will be a crossover between 3DS and Switch features.
For a roundup of notable excerpts, continue on below. Paste’s full interview with Bowser is located here.

Nintendo has unveiled a new aspect of ARMS’ major update. With version 2.0, Nintendo will be adding in records.
Players will be able to access all sorts of information with records. You’ll be able to see the frequency of ARMS used, hit rate, the winning percentage of the last 100 matches, and more.
Here’s a quick look:

Yesterday, the Japanese ARMS Twitter account posted a mysterious GIF of what looks to be a new item in ARMS. The tweet itself doesn’t give much information, but the clip does show a Helix clone punching it a few times before it opens and shows a Hedlok mask.

So what could this be about? Perhaps the item is tied into a new kind of mode? We did hear producer Yosuke Kabuke say that a new mode is coming to ARMS, though Nintendo hasn’t elaborated on it.
A new month is here! We just entered July last week, so that means we want to know what you’ve been playing.
Have you started up something entirely new for the month? Have you given Ever Oasis a shot? Or maybe you’re trying something on Switch like ARMS or the new Zelda DLC. Whatever the case, let us know in the comments below!
Highlights from last week’s topic: Zelda: Breath of the Wild – The Master Trials impressions
In April, Oddworld creator and Oddworld Inhabitants founder Lorne Lanning appeared on The GameOverGreggy Show. Though the show was originally recorded in April, some comments Lanning made about Nintendo made the rounds at the end of this week.
Lanning noted a few things – he personally thought Switch would likely be unsuccessful, that it might not be worthwhile for third-parties given what happened on Wii and Wii U, and several other comments.
Ultimately the biggest remark that caught on is something Lanning said about late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata. He said that “The thinking has to change,” before adding: “The biggest problem I see at Nintendo is the thinking. Personally, I think it killed Iwata – that he couldn’t move the organization into a really successful arena.”
Lanning has now apologized “for the poor choice of words concerning Satoru Iwata.” He also clarified what he was originally trying to say. We’ve rounded up everything Lanning passed along on Twitter below.
