Images have appeared on a Chinese forum showing a teardown of the Switch. Due to the language barrier, it might be tough to really get a grasp on any notable information at present. However, there are quite a few images, all of which are posted below.
Nintendo put together a new European 1-2-Switch commercial to highlight a couple of the included mini-games. You can view it below.
Petite Games is planning another game for 3DS. Yesterday, the indie developer announced Petite Games, sharing a couple of screenshots in the process.
Going by the title and images, it’s obvious to see that you’ll be playing golf. Two modes are included: “Endless” and “Arcade”. The former has players hitting a ball in endless levels while the other involves seeing how far you can go with three trie.
Infinite Golf coming soon to Nintendo 3DS! Stay tuned for more information! #gamedev #indiedev #eshop #screenshotsaturday pic.twitter.com/pGf3rirxkm

Thanks to Jose M for the tip.
Super Bomberman R is starting to appear at Australian retailers. Because of that, we’re able to get a look at the final Switch case and cartridge. Check out a few images above.
Nintendo had a little bit of a tease to share about Fire Emblem Heroes at Cipher Festival 2017 WEST. Two of the game’s directors stopped by, and teased a new event involving friends.
Currently, details about the event are pretty much non-existent. We only know that it will be going live sometime next month.
Stay tuned for additional details.

Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional recently made its way to Japan. A lengthy look at the game is in the video below.
8-4 worked on the English version of Xenoblade Chronicles X. But for Xenoblade Chronicles 2, announced during last month’s Switch presentation, the localization company is not involved. Co-founder John Ricciardi confirmed that 8-4 isn’t handling the Japanese translation in a Twitter message last month.
Nintendo currently intends to have Xenoblade Chronicles 2 ready sometime in 2017. That includes North America and Europe as well, though some have doubts about it launching in the west this year.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
We recently fired off some questions to Tomorrow Corporation’s Kyle Gabler in hopes of learning a bit more about World of Goo, Little Inferno, and Human Resource Machine on Switch. What we didn’t expect were incredibly entertaining replies, making for one of our zaniest interviews yet.
We did ask Tomorrow Corporation about its initial slate of Switch titles. Additionally, Gabler teased future projects. Two are on the way, one of which is the biggest game yet from Tomorrow Corporation.
You can read our full interview with Tomorrow Corporation below.
System: 3DS (eShop)
Release date: February 16, 2017
Developer: Vitei / Nintendo
Publisher Nintendo
Tank Troopers is strong in many of the same ways Steel Diver was good, so it wasn’t surprising to see that Vitei (the developer that assisted development on that title) made this. Comparing a game’s strengths to the infamously barebones 3DS launch title isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement, and for as many strengths it shares, those weaknesses are also present – even if to a lesser extent. There’s just not a lot of stuff to do, even if it does have some of the dichotomy of cutesy war charm of the World War I dogfighting game Snoopy Flying Ace.
