Nintendo has ported many of its Wii U games over to Switch, but there are still a few titles remaining. Pikmin 3 is one release that we could be getting sooner rather than later.

Venturebeat reports that, aside from Intelligent Systems which just unveiled Paper Mario: The Origami King today, “other Nintendo studios will have games ready for release soon”. The site specifically cites the rumored 3D Mario remasters plus something we haven’t heard of previously: Pikmin 3 Deluxe.

Nintendo has just announced Paper Mario: The Origami King, a brand new game for Switch. It’ll launch both physically and digitally on July 17.

Paper Mario: The Origami King kicks off as “the dangerous King Olly unleashes his plan to fold the entire world.” Princess Peach’s Castle has also been bound “in giant, colored streamers and transported it to a distant mountain.” Bowser’s minions have transformed into Folded Soldiers and have been enlisted, too.

New to this title is a ring-based system in which you “line up scattered enemies and maximize damage.” It’ll be based around turn-based battles. Another addition is the 1000 Fold-Arms that “allows you to interact with the landscape by stretching out and pulling, peeling and revealing new locations, helping you to solve puzzles and uncover unexpected surprises.” Players will “enlist the help of characters old and new, such as King Olly’s good-natured sister, Olivia, along with a range of unlikely allies, including Bowser himself”.

Here’s the full announcement and trailer:

Publisher 2K and developer Firaxis have announced the New Frontier Pass for Civilization VI, a season pass that encompasses eight new civilizations, nine new leaders, six new game modes, and more. Players can expect new content to arrive in the form of six DLC packs delivered on a bimonthly basis between May 21, 2020 and March 2021.

Those who purchase the New Frontier Pass will receive the Teddy Roosevelt and Catherine De Medici Persona Packs as exclusive bonuses. These offer “a brand-new take on a favorite leader, with a new leader model and background, new gameplay bonuses and an updated agenda that reflects the changes to the leader’s personality.” 2K says Rough Rider Teddy “excels at keeping the peace on his home continent” whereas Magnificence Catherine “can use Luxuries to overwhelm the world with Culture and Tourism.” Both Persona Packs will be available with the second DLC Pack in July.

Hello my lovely Boos and Sheikah! This week on Nintendo Everything Podcast, we muse over Retro Studios’ old concept art for Sheik and Boo projects—we really get excited about the Boo one. We cover the Switch’s growing success with the 2019 financial briefings, then talk Mario Kart Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath and the bitter reaction online to the pricing structure. This evolves into a larger discussion of these trends in the gaming industry among many publishers. Is the industry incentivizing consumers to wait to buy their games until after all post-launch content is available? And to respond to this situation they’ve created, do they exploit consumers’ dedication to franchises and FOMO? And finally, we theorize how we could’ve saved the console that was met with a terrible fate: the Wii U.
Check our links and timestamps below, and come hang out.
