We’ve shared tons of footage from the Japanese version of Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, but GameSpot put up a new video today with English gameplay. The latest video can be found below.
Nintendo’s games on Switch thus far have featured imagery inside of the case. With Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, that continues. You can get a look at the box imagery above along with the actual cartridge.
When NBA Playgrounds launches next month, it’ll come packed with a ton of players from both past and present. On GameSpot, the full lineup is revealed. Continue on below for the full listing.
A new set of amiibo is being released alongside Splatoon 2, and just like in the first game, these will unlock special outfits. These are somewhat similar to the outfits the original amiibo in the first game unlocked – the new Inkling Girl amiibo unlocks a school uniform, the Inkling Boy amiibo unlocks a ninja outfit and the Inkling Squid amiibo unlocks a set of heavy armor (called Power Gear in the first game).
In the original Splatoon, you had to play special challenge levels to receive the outfits. We don’t know yet how it’ll work in Splatoon 2, as we barely know anything about the game’s singleplayer content at the moment.
Super Bomberman R just received a fairly major free update, but Konami is already looking ahead to what’s next for the game. The company revealed that in a future update, three characters from classic Konami franchises will be added to the game: Simon Belmont from Castlevania, Pyramid Head from Silent Hill and Vic Viper from Gradius.
Miitomo has been updated with more content. Users will find a new stage, along with some brand new items.

– Zebra costume
– Lady explorer outfit
And as far as the new items go, you can nab the following:
– Giant bow
– Dress + trench coat

Super Bomberman R received its latest patch tonight. Among other things, the developers increased the game’s frame rate.
Some are claiming that Super Bomberman R runs at 60 frames per second with version 1.3. We’ll probably need an analysis to verify that, but there’s no doubt that it runs at a faster rate.
Here’s a quick video showing the improvement:
