A little while back, the Billings Farm & Museum in Woodstock, Vermont challenged Nintendo to battle it out in the Milk mini-game from 1-2-Switch by going up against real dairy farmers. The big N accepted, and several matches took place earlier today.

NIS America sent out a new wave of screenshots and details for its upcoming 3DS game creator RPG Maker Fes.
RPG Maker Fes gives users the ability to develop their own world, story, and characters. Specific event conditions can be included that must be met for another event to occur, while also allowing you to customize your characters’ and enemies’ characteristics and parameters, specify flashy finishing moves, set collisions to create seemingly inaccessible “secret rooms”, and more.
We’ve included today’s RPG Maker Fes screenshots below. The system details, courtesy of the official website, are located below.
Update (3/29): Reminder: this will be going live in just under a half hour. Both will be here.

Best Buy is cautioning buyers that quantities will be limited. Naturally, that means neither will be in stock for very long.
You’ll be able to pick up a Switch and the NES Classic Edition on Best Buy’s site right here.
With the last update of their website, Famitsu has also uploaded the first screenshots of Kamiko, a new action game that will be arriving on the Switch next month in Japan.
This game has been developed by Fairune devs Skipmore and will present players with the control of three “Divine Maidens” with different powers and abilities in a fantastic and pixelated world.
Following up on the Snake Pass Switch vs. PS4 comparison posted last night, the folks over at Digital Foundry have come out with their own analysis of the two versions. Switch manages to stack up pretty well on the whole.
On Switch, a few graphical effects are missing and the game runs at a native 1200×675 resolution while docked (in comparison to the PS4’s 1536×864). Both versions are locked at 30 FPS. Unfortunately, the Switch release has some frame-pacing issues, but it’s nothing overly major and could be addressed in a future patch.
Here’s the full analysis from Digital Foundry:
Famitsu has published their online preview of the recently announced Shin Megami Tensei: Deep Strange Journey, along with the first screenshots of the upcoming 3DS game.
As you probably know by now, this will be a remake of the SMT: Strange Journey game for DS, but with new features such as an easier playability, a new character and new story endings.
Thanks to Famitsu and Gematsu we also got the first story details for SMT: Deep Strange Journey. A strange land with the name of “Schwarzwelt” has suddenly appeared in the Antarctic and the protagonist, along with a Strike Team, must investigate it. Monsters from the Shin Megami Tensei series appear and the player must make a series of choices in order to decide the future of mankind.
Shin Megami Tensei: Deep Strange Journey will launch this fall for 3DS in Japan.
