Nintendo’s latest maintenance schedule for the week of May 11, 2025 is now available.
Aside from previously-announced downtime for the Nintendo eShops happening next week, an additional period has been added. There’ll be downtime for the Nintendo Switch Online app on Switch’s home menu a couple of days from now.
Below is the full Nintendo maintenance schedule for the week of May 11, 2025:
SEGA is bringing Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. to Nintendo Switch 2, the company just announced. A release window was not provided.
According to SEGA, “Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. takes the gameplay of Virtua Fighter 5 and raises it to new levels”. It features additional content, rollback netcode support, and more. Cross-play will be supported across all platforms.
Playtonic and Badgehammer issued a launch trailer for Dunk Dunk. This week, the chaotic multiplayer basketball game made it to Nintendo Switch.
Thanks to the eShop description, we have the following details:
Since the reveal of Nintendo Switch 2 last month and following the news about game-key cards, there’s been a claim regarding cartridges for the console. We’ve been hearing that unlike Switch 1, there aren’t many options when it comes to sizes. Nintendo Switch 1 offered developers and publishers various options including 8GB and 16GB. However, at least currently, it’s claimed that 64GB is pretty much the only option on Nintendo Switch 2.
It’s now looking like this may very well be true. Arc System Works appears to have been hit with an internal hack in which someone was able to steal tons of data. We don’t want to get into that too much, but the end result is that it’s brought along some Nintendo Switch 2 news.
Listings on the eShops provide file sizes for a bunch of Nintendo Switch games. These include Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo, Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact, and more.
Here’s the full roundup:
We have a new round of High On Life gameplay showing the just-released Nintendo Switch port. The comedy adventure, coming from Trover Saves the Universe developer Squanch Games, also comes with the High On Knife DLC.
Additional information can be found in the following overview:
Fast Fusion may receive a 120 FPS performance mode after launch. That’s according to Manfred Linzner, who shared the news in an interview with Nintendo Everything.
Fast Fusion will run at 60 frames per second with a 4K resolution at launch. That alone is very much impressive. However, we could see an even higher level of performance in the future.
You might be wondering: isn’t it too early to be thinking about a Xenoblade Chronicles 2 remaster? The answer might surprise you: not really! The original Xenoblade Chronicles released in Japan in 2010, and in America in 2012. It then received a Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch in 2020. If Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were going to receive a remaster on the same timetable, getting it this year wouldn’t be out of the question. That said, given how Monolith Soft released Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition in March, that clearly isn’t happening. In fact, we think we’ll probably see a Xenoblade Chronicles 4 before a potential Xenoblade Chronicles 2 remaster, but after that, we think it’s possible that the studio will eventually revisit the game. So today, we’re going through a full list of changes we would want to see in a hypothetical Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch 2. There are spoilers ahead, so be warned if you’re still trying to avoid them all these years later.
