The latest update for Mario Tennis Aces will be available tomorrow – version 3.0.1. Players can access the latest character, balance adjustments have been implemented, and more.

Below are the full patch notes:

Ninjala

You may recall Ninjala, “a morphing ninja gum action game that allows players to blow bubble gum to craft weapons and use the unconventional fighting method ninjutsu.” The Switch title was originally announced around this time last year, with a planned release for the spring.

Unfortunately, that will no longer be happening. GungHo Online Entertainment provided an update today and revealed a major delay. The action game has been pushed back from this spring to Spring 2020. The extra time will be used “in order to implement improvements and polish the game for final release.”

Harvest Moon: Mad Dash is in development for Switch, Natsume announced today. The game, which is described as a spinoff, will be featured at E3 2019 with its first appearance. Official details and a “first look” will be shared on June 11.

Hiro Maekawa, president and CEO of Natsume, said in a statement:

Mario Tennis Aces has been regularly adding new characters since its launch last year. As we found out a short while ago, Fire Piranha Plant is scheduled for June. We also now know that Dry Bowser is next up in the pipeline, and will be the final new character. Dry Bowser is slated for July for those who participate in the online tournament.

More costumes are also rolling out in the months ahead. The Bowser Tennis Outfit is planned for June, followed by the Wario Overall Outfit / Waluigi Overall Outfit in July, and alternate colors for Koopa Troopa and Paratroopa in August. After August, all previous costumes given out as online tournament rewards will be rerun (in rotation) for those who missed them previously.

R-Type Final 2

Granzella recently announced R-Type Final 2, a follow-up to Irem’s horizontal shooter that originally released on the PlayStation 2 back in 2003. Switch wasn’t originally a part of the plan, but about fielding feedback from fans, the new R-Type will now be included as a target platform.

A Kickstarter campaign will open on June 3 to help fully realize the game. For now, find the first details and trailer for R-Type Final 2 below.
