The Pokemon Company hasn’t said how it will be handling the distribution of Marshadow in the west. But in Japan, we have full details.
The Marshadow will be offered as part of a tie in with Pokemon the Movie 20: I Choose You!. It’ll be at level 50 with the moves Spectral Thief, Close Combat, Force Palm and Shadow Ball. The Marshadium Z Z-Crystal is included as well.

“I don’t know yet. I’m guessing no. And this is a collaborative relationship between Nintendo and I; they don’t have Achievements on their platform. If they want us to, I would love to be able to do it… The relationship with Nintendo is incredibly strong. We obviously did the Mario mash-up pack into Minecraft; that doesn’t happen that often.”
Here’s a surprise: the handheld versions of Mighty No. 9 are still on the way. And if everything goes according to plan, the game will be on 3DS before year’s end or earlier.
A message was sent out to Kickstarter backers today with the news. In the message, the team explained that the porting process to portables was put on hold “due to the other versions being delayed and the recent adjustment we had in comcept” – that being Level-5’s acquisition of the company. Everything is said to be “back on track now,” with the porting process restarted in May.
Head past the break for the full message.

“We use Xbox Live as the way to make sure we know who our players are, controls around parental controls and other things that we put into our platform are there. And as you’re buying things in Minecraft, you want to make sure you have them available on other platforms, so we have to know who you are. If you have a realm that you’ve created on the PC and you want to get to it on the Switch, we have to have an identity system and we just use Xbox Live.”
“Unruly Heroes is an action-adventure platformer game. Inspired by the famous Chinese legend, “A journey to the west”, better known as the Monkey King legend, the game will make you live a fantastic and unforgettable experience. The game can be played in coop up to 4 players, but you can decide to play online in fierce Player vs Player modes!”

On Virtual Console for Switch…
“We know that our fans, our players, want access to all of our digital content, we know that. What we’re working through is, ‘okay, what’s going to be the best way to make that happen, to make that available?’ Certainly, we recognize there’s an appetite for all of our great legacy content.”
On My Nintendo…
“From the Nintendo of America standpoint, we have it as a priority to make My Nintendo much more meaningful moving forward.”
Update: This can be fixed! You’ll need to do a hard reboot of the system, and then Cars 3 should be fine. It’s definitely not an isolated incident though, and we’ve seen a few reports about this happening. Hopefully Warner Bros. and Avalanche will put out a patch to prevent these issues.
Original: You may want to hold off on purchasing Cars 3: Driven to Win on Switch. We’re hearing that the game doesn’t go beyond the title screen, meaning it can’t be played at all.

Anyone out there have Cars 3 on Switch? If so, have you encountered these issues? It’d be interesting to see if the Wii U version works…
