Hey guys! Edan here, just wanted to give you all a status update on our My Time At Portia review. A few weeks back we received review code for the game, and as someone who has plunged over 200 hours into Stardew Valley, I jumped at the chance to review what is one of my most anticipated Switch titles this year. Unfortunately, things haven’t exactly been straightforward.

We knew that Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order would be landing sometime this summer. Today, Nintendo revealed that the game is set to launch on July 19.

Akira Toriyama’s magnum opus spans countless generations throughout a multitude of mediums, each with their own twist and flavor to appeal to just about anyone out there with an interest in Dragon Ball. From fighting games, to RPGs, to strategy games and beyond, Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission now builds upon that roster of titles by introducing Japan’s number one digital card game for years to the western market at last and makes it accessible at the comfort of your own home and on the go.

Nintendo and Camelot have released a major update for Mario Tennis Aces, continuing the game’s support nearly a year later. The latest version is 3.0.0.

Ring Shot mode has been added as something entirely new to the game. You can battle against opponents while trying to pass the ball through rings and wrack up your score. Yoshi’s Ring Shot is available as well, and is being featured in the Co-op Challenge mode. Finally, there’s a new opening movie in the game’s story mode.
