Super Mario Odyssey has a few Power Moons dedicated to Hint Art. Pictures found in the various kingdoms give you vague hints as to where these Power Moons are located.

In Super Mario Odyssey’s latest update, version 1.2.0, it’s now much easier to keep track of which Hint Art have been solved. Green ticks will appear on the pictures for Power Moons that have been obtained. This wasn’t mentioned in Nintendo’s patch notes, but is worth mentioning since it’s a very helpful addition.

Switch sold the most units in the United States out of all hardware platforms last month, according to The NPD Group. PlayStation 4 was the top system in terms of dollar sales, but only 3% separated Switch, PS4, and Xbox One.

Overall, the gaming industry experienced a very strong month in January. Hardware dollar sales of $278 million “is the highest level achieved since the $323 million sold in January 2011,” NPD analyst Mat confirms. “Over one million units of hardware sold in January 2018, also the highest tally since January 2011.”

In December, Nintendo said that 3DS had its best month in the US since December 2014. Those strong results continued into January. NPD says that in terms of hardware dollar sales, last month was the 3DS’ best January since 2014.

Interestingly, no 3DS games made it into NPD’s top 20 software list for the month. However, Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon were the first and second best-selling titles in January. Despite releasing in 2011, Mario Kart 7 placed #3 in the 3DS chart.
