Nintendo has launched the Japanese website for the upcoming 3DS game Metroid: Samus Returns. You can find it here. It doesn’t really contain a whole lot of new information or media, but it’s nice to look at at least.
Another summoning focus is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes, this time with a focus on heroes with the ability quick riposte. The heroes in this focus include Leo, Subaki and Klein. So if you are in need of this ability it might be time to start using some of those hard earned orbs. This focus lasts until August 4th.
Lloyd grand hero battle will also be coming back tomorrow as well so be sure to look forward to that.
It’s time for the latest Famitsu‘s most wanted games chart. Dragon Quest XI holds steady, and Super Mario Odyssey is back in the top five.
Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between July 6 and July 12.
The first footage of Rayman Legends Definitive Edition on Switch is in with the game’s just-released demo on the European Switch eShop. View the gameplay below.
At San Diego Comic-Con this past week, Capcom revealed that Shin Akuma has been hiding in Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers as a secret unlockable. We now have a trailer for the character below.
A demo for Rayman Legends Definitive Edition has unexpectedly been published on the European Switch eShop. It’s available for download right now, assuming you have 707MB of free space. You can download the demo in any region so long as you have a European Nintendo account.
Also worth mentioning, the European eShop indicates that Rayman Legends Definitive Edition is slated for September 12. Some of these listings have been occasionally inaccurate, but retailers have also been pointing to the same date.
Thanks to TheBC97 for the tip.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 recording sessions were held yesterday and today. Jen Bird from Tomorrow Bird wrapped up a couple of tracks, including the game’s ending theme. It’s thought that the ending song will be a ballad that conveys the meaning of character relationships.
