The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild comes in the form of a cartridge on Switch, but let’s not forget about the Wii U version as well, which has its own disc. With the Wii U version beginning to circulate, we now have a look at the disc art. It looks pretty nice and is a fine representative as Nintendo’s last Wii U game.
A demo for Puyo Puyo Tetris has launched on the Japanese eShop with Switch today. In the video below, you can see what it has to offer.
Nintendo just put up a new video for Switch that explains how users go about attaching and detaching the Joy-Con controllers from the system. Have a look at it below.
Videos are coming in showing a variety of indie titles for Switch on display at GDC this week. We’re starting out with Gonner, Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment, and Blaster Master Zero, but more may be added throughout the day.
All sorts of amiibo can be used in Zelda: Breath of the Wild to unlock various goodies. Eurogamer stumbled upon one thing in particular that may catch your interest. It’s never entirely clear where the spoiler line lies, so we’ve posted the video after the break.
All game saves for Switch are directly stored on the console. Saves can’t be recorded on a microSD card, and it seems that they can’t be transferred in any way – at least for now. So if you were to purchase a new Switch for whatever reason, your saves will be stuck on the original device.
As for downloading games and taking screenshots, these can be moved freely between the system and microSD card. This can be accomplished in the Data Management menu.
Update (3/2): Here are a bunch of screenshots for Switch games:

Wii U and 3DS demos both impose play limits. For most of these downloads, you can only play them a certain amount of times before they become locked and are inaccessible. Most limits are at around thirty, but some are much lower.
Thankfully, with Switch, play limits are gone. Demos for the likes of Snipperclips, Dragon Quest Heroes I-II, and Puyo Puyo Tetris allow you to load them up as many times as you please. It’s certainly a change that will sit well with Switch owners.
