The Splatoon 2 Splat Chat is back with a new video. This time around, there’s discussion about how the single-player mode can help train you in the essentials before starting multiplayer, the importance of using recon to understand how stages change based on the mode, and how Ink Rails being added to Moray Towers can change team strategy.
Ever Oasis can now be pre-loaded on the North American 3DS eShop. To do so, you’ll need 6,246 blocks of free space. That amounts to 780.75MB.
By pre-loading Ever Oasis, you can be ready for launch. You’ll pay for the game up front and download most of the game data. Then on launch day, you’ll only need a small update to begin playing.
GamesBeat has posted a video with extensive gameplay from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Get a look at 13 minutes of footage below.

The official E3 2017 trailer is now live for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. View the game’s new trailer below.

If Best Buy Canada’s E3 page is anything to go by, at least three new Switch games could be announced next week.
The retailer currently has placeholders images up on its main page. Each one says “To be revealed at E3”.
Now, we do know that one of them isn’t Super Mario Odyssey as it already has a listing. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle could be a candidate for sure.
The one thing to be slightly concerned about is that Pokken Tournament DX and Fire Emblem Warriors don’t have their own listings on Best Buy Canada right now. But surely they aren’t considered to be new reveals, right? In any case, it’s always a good idea to maintain some skepticism when dealing with retailers. We’ll know what the future holds very soon.
Seiken Densetsu Collection lacks any sort of instructions. For new players, that might be frustrating. Not all games necessarily need manuals, but there’s a reason why Seiken 3 had one (and it was 48 pages) back during the Famicom era – it can be complicated.
Square Enix is looking to fix the situation by addressing player requests. For now, the manuals for the games included in Seiken Densetsu Collection can be viewed here. Producer Masaru Oyamada also apologized for any trouble the lack of in-game explanations caused and acknowledged that players felt it was difficult to figure out how to play. Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual as well, but it will take some time.

The ARMS theme song has already become quite iconic – if you want to listen to it any time, Nintendo has got you covered. They just released a video featuring the song, which you can watch below.
