Here’s the full rundown of the update:

Publisher SelectaPlay and developer Vidibond Games today announced Bubble Ghost Remake, and it’s coming to Switch. There’s no word on release timing as of now.
Bubble Ghost first came out in 1987 and also saw a Game Boy version. For the remake, the team is implementing fully updated graphics and sound plus new features such as new game modes, challenging final bosses, collectables, and more secrets.
In the eyes of Sonic Team head and Sonic Superstars producer Takashi Iizuki, pixel art won’t be a “viable” style in the future.
Iizuki was speaking with GamesRadar about SEGA’s upcoming game in a recent interview. Sonic Superstars will be using 2.5D visuals whereas past entries – going back to the franchise’s original days – used pixel art.

For additional information about the game, read the following overview:
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is showing off another character in a spotlight character, and this time around we have a look at Plankton from SpongeBob SquarePants.
Plankton actually does most of his fighting in a mech suit, which makes sense given how small he is. He’s a heavyweight zoner grappler who’s best at a distance when lobbing projectiles or up close when grabbing and tossing opponents. Mecha Plankton is the game’s biggest characters, but the downside is he’s slow. One bright spot though is that he has the farthest reaching grab in the game.
