Alongside the release of Terry Bogard, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate version 6.0.0 is now available. Today’s update includes new Battle Arena mode features, fighter adjustments, and more.

Below are the full patch notes:

Terry Bogard was announced for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate during the last Nintendo Direct in September. Today, director Masahiro Sakurai confirmed that the DLC character will arrive today. The news was shared during the currently-ongoing presentation.

Terry comes with the King of Fighters Stadium, new music tracks (50 in total), and a new Spirit Board. You can also use the character in a new Classic Mode route.

During today’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate presentation, a new wave of Mii Fighter costumes were announced for the Switch fighter. They include Nakoruru (Swordfighter), Ryo Sakazaki (Brawler), Iori Yagami (Brawler), Akira (Brawler), Jacky (Brawler). Each one is available starting today as paid DLC.

Here’s a trailer:

Today’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate presentation will begin in one hour. Nintendo will kick off the broadcast at 5 AM PT / 8 AM ET / 1 PM in the UK / 2 PM in Europe. Director Masahiro Sakurai will be presenting the newest DLC character, Terry Bogard, during the 45-minute video.

You can watch the presentation as it happens below. We’ll report back on any notable news shared with fresh posts on the site.

In an interview with Wccftech, director Suda51 provided an update on No More Heroes 3. The game is now “about 35 to 40 percent complete,” he said. The script has wrapped up as well.

No More Heroes 3 was first announced at E3 2019. We haven’t seen a new trailer since then, but a new video is on the way. Suda51 mentioned that a second trailer is planned for the end of this year of early next year.

Suda51 shared some other tidbits during the interview as well. The open world is larger than the first No More Heroes, but “won’t be as big as something you see from huge companies like Ubisoft or Rockstar.” Side-missions are returning along with “other extras”, the latter of which are different from mini-games. The suit transformation shown in the debut trailer “will only be available in certain special circumstances.” As for bosses, Suda51 described one of the bosses by bringing up Thanos, Venom, and Joker. Last but not least, Nobuaki Kaneko is handling the entire soundtrack.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 review

System: Switch
Release date: November 5, 2019
Developer: SEGA
Publisher: SEGA


It is often said that there are but two certainties in life, being death and taxes. I propose we add a third billing to that list: party games on Nintendo consoles. There isn’t a single saggy financial quarter that can’t be pumped up significantly by the presence of a mini-game collection featuring Mario and company, and this Christmas, SEGA (in partnership with Nintendo) have answered the call of duty by sending Mario, Sonic, and both of their respective entourages to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. The initial novelty and shock value of an official game featuring both Nintendo and SEGA’s mascots may be somewhat dulled since the franchise’s first outing on Wii in 2007, but you could say that this new entry is the series’ most fitting one: two monolithic Japanese companies paying homage to one equally gargantuan Japanese event.

Nintendo will publish a 45-minute live stream video for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on November 6, the company has announced. It will feature director Masahiro Sakurai and new DLC fighter Terry Bogard, among other topics.

Expect the stream to begin at the following times:

It’s that time once again: a new system update for the 3DS is now available. Nintendo just started the distribution of version 11.12.0-44.

Like the past few firmware upgrades, we’re not expecting any major changes or additions here. Nintendo hasn’t made any mention of today’s update, but it should involve “improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments” – as is usually the case.

We previously reported that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has become the best-selling entry in the series. That’s not the only milestone the Switch game has achieved. Interestingly enough, Smash Bros. Ultimate is now the best-selling fighting title of all time.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate sales sit at 15.71 million copies based on the latest data provided by Nintendo last week. Street Fighter II, the previous record holder, sold 15.5 million units.

Super Smash Bros. is also the most popular fighting game franchise of all time. The series has shifted 53.03 million copies whereas other heavy hitters like Tekken, Dragon Ball, Street Fighter, and Mortal Kombat fall short at around the 45 to 47 million mark.

A few months ago, it was announced that Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield won’t include every creature in the series. That quickly led fans to wonder which Pokemon have been kept and which have been cut.

Now that the dust has settled on leaks from the past few days, we have a more or less complete list of every Pokemon players can encounter in Sword/Shield. It includes returning Pokemon from past games as well as brand new ones from this entry.

Here’s the full lineup:
