Game Freak announced Little Town Hero last year before it disappeared for a long while. However, it resurfaced in a big way during the most recent Nintendo Direct with a release date and announcement that Undertale creator Toby Fox was on board to work on the soundtrack.

To say that this was an unexpected collaboration would be an understatement. In the latest issue of Game Informer, it was explained how the partnership came to be.

If you don’t remember what Megaton Musashi is, we can’t exactly blame you. Level-5 announced the multimedia project back in 2016, but has barely shown anything since. There also hasn’t been any major news since last year’s Jump Festa trailer.

Speaking of Jump Festa, Level-5 has announced that it will be returning to this year’s shown with the latest news about Megaton Musashi. We’re not exactly sure what will be shown, but some sort of update will be planned.

Jump Festa 2020 runs between December 21 and December 22. We’ll report back with any additional news that comes our way.

Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch being a sales success is not exactly breaking news at this point, but Nintendo have reached another milestone with their latest system: over 10 million Nintendo Switch systems have been sold in Europe so far. Total worldwide sales of the system were at 36,87 million as of June 30. At the end of October, Nintendo will present their financial results for the past quarter, and it seems likely the Switch will then be at over 40 million globally.

Doom Eternal

Bethesda and id Software have shared some significant news about Doom Eternal today. The major headline is that the game is delayed, and will no longer launch in November as originally scheduled.

The initial release for Doom Eternal is now set for March 20, 2020. However, the Switch version is now said to be coming later, and no new date has been announced.

In other news, Doom 64 will now be a pre-order bonus for Doom Eternal. Additionally, Invasion Mode will be made available “shortly after launch”.

If a new ESRB rating is anything to go by, Call of Juarez: Gunslinger is coming to Switch. A classification for the game was just added to Nintendo’s platform.

Back in May, Techland chief technical officer Pawel Rohleder teased that the company “might have a surprise for the Nintendo Switch later this year.” 2019 is quickly drawing to a close and this ESRB rating was just made known, so it’s looking almost like a lock that we’ll be seeing Call of Juarez: Gunslinger on Switch.
