Switch’s online app may have a name. Eagle-eyed fans have spotted the title “Nintendo Switch Online Lounge” after fiddling around with the system, which appears to have somewhat of a built-in lobby function. Requests are apparently done through a web applet, and that applet has the logo… typo and all.
This message was located on the source code of the page:
Your room has been created.
You can invite friends to the room via
the Nintendo Switch Online Lounge app.
Just a day after the feature was announced, one fan has already given Super Mario 64 the same hat capture ability that Nintendo will be including in Super Mario Odyssey. Check out the results below.
GameSpot reported today that after reaching out to Capcom, the publisher has no plans to localize Monster Hunter XX for the west. The series’ official Twitter account has since put out the following:
Just to clarify: our official response is we have not announced any plans to localize MHXX at this time. https://t.co/mI31mcrrvE

Admittedly, that comment doesn’t really clarify the situation. Capcom did tack on “at this time” though, so perhaps they don’t want to rule out localization entirely. GameSpot also didn’t post Capcom’s original statement word-for-word – it was instead a paraphrase – so that certainly doesn’t help things.
In any case, Monster Hunter XX isn’t heading west… for now. It’s unclear if and when that will change.
Not all levels in Super Mario Odyssey will be automatically accessible. In Treehouse footage shown today, it was mentioned that each Kingdom has secret levels requiring certain outfits. The Mario Maker costume shown above is one example.
Nintendo, in partnership with NES Remix developer indieszero, have announced Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido for 3DS. The game will be released next year. Trailer is below.
