F-Zero Climax GP Legend Nintendo Switch Online

Two more games are coming to Nintendo Switch Online, with the service soon adding F-Zero Climax and F-Zero: GP Legend. Both are slated for October 11, 2024. If you’re a subscriber to the Expansion Pack tier of Switch Online, you’ll be able to access them when they’re made available next week.

F-Zero Climax is particularly notable as the GBA game never left Japan. F-Zero: GP Legend launched in North America and Europe in 2004 after it debuted in Japan the year prior. These titles were made by Suzak, a studio that closed down in 2012.

Nintendo is still supporting F-Zero 99, and a major update went live just a short while ago featuring the new Grand Prix Ace League.

That’s not all though. The game also received a new round of tracks, new machine decals, an Expanded Practice Mode. Even this is just the surface of things as the game has received a bunch of adjustments and fixes.

The full rundown is as follows:

Bloomtown A Different Story review

System: Switch
Release date: September 24, 2024
Developer: Lazy Bear Games
Publisher: Twin Sails


The feeling of déjà vu is not an uncommon one to experience when playing a game, particularly with indies, which have often drawn their inspiration from more successful and well-established franchises to create their own take on the formula. It’s not inherently a bad thing, but it was a feeling that I often had whilst I was playing Bloomtown: A Different Story. Despite a few questionable deviations here and there, it delivers an experience that at least matches its inspirations for enthusiasm and spirit, if not entirely in terms of satisfaction and enjoyment.

Shadow movie Sonic Generations

SEGA shared plenty of news about Shadow x Sonic Generations this week, but the big announcement was that Shadow from the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie will be featured in the game. A level will be included that’s inspired by the film and Keanu Reeves is even on board to voice the character for the DLC.

Series producer Shun Nakamura spoke about how this all came about in an interview with the PlayStation Blog. He started off by sharing the following:

Thanks to the massive art book for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that came out in Japan not too long ago, new lore details are available. Reddit user livixbobbiex has been poking through the Japanese text and shared a number of tidbits.

The art book delves a bit deeper into the Zonai. A few other topics are touched on as well.

Here’s the full roundup of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom lore details passed along by livixbobbiex:

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom just came out, and we want to get impressions from those who started the game this week.

There’s no doubt that this is one of Nintendo’s biggest titles of the year and for Switch as a whole. Zelda has been going strong, but if we’re looking strictly at 2D games, this is the first one we’ve gotten in quite some time. It’s also significant for putting Zelda in the starring role and offering a new spin on the franchise’s formula while also taking inspiration from some of the things we saw from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

So if you’re playing Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, how are you feeling about it? Let us know in the comments below.
