Two new blog posts have gone up on the Nintendo Treehouse Log over on Tumblr. The first one, written by Bill Trinen, talks about Super Mario Odyssey and its sandbox nature. You can also find a separate post about Metroid: Return of Samus here.
The Echoes of Mystery summoning focus is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes. This focus features 5 star versions of Katarina, Roderick, Athena, and Luke from Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem. The summoning focus will be available until June 30th.
There is also a new Paralogue and new quests that are tied into the Echoes of Mystery summoning focus as well. The quests will also be available until June 30th.

This information comes from an IGN preview of Splatoon 2…
During our hands-on with Splatoon 2, we also learned that Nintendo is certainly planning big Salmon Run events, and adding more maps besides the Spawning Grounds. This was great to hear, as without additional content, once Salmon Run is “solved,” so-to-speak, it could easily suffer from a lack of a variety.
When asked if Salmon Run events would take the place of Splatfest, the Nintendo representative simply said they “weren’t discussing Splatfest at this time.”
In a new video posted by Nintendo of Japan, one scene shows Mario wearing what looks a whole lot like a Super Mario Maker costume. You can briefly see it just before the 4-minute mark below.
Now may also be a good time to mention that Super Mario Odyssey has an official Twitter account here. It already has some screenshots / images.
Two special versions of Fire Emblem Warriors have been announced for Japan. Like Hyrule Warriors and some other Koei Tecmo releases, the game will be receiving a Treasure Box and Premium Box.
Both versions copy with a copy of the game, 80-page art book, 3-disc soundtrack, and character postcards. The Treasure Box also features a Dragon Stone Crystal clock with voice included.
On Switch, the Premium Box is 10,800 yen and 9,800 yen on New 3DS. The Treasure Box is 15,800 yen and 14,800 yen respectively.
