A Japanese overview trailer of MK8D shows off more battle mode tracks.
-Candy stage (like Sweet Sweet Canyon)
-Space stage (like on a crater surface of a moon and also attached to a big space base that looks similar to the one from Rainbow Road.)
-Oriental stage with big dragon statues (like that DLC Dragon race track)
-Retro track, Wuhu Island Plaza from Mario Kart 7. The first time Wuhu Island has appeared on the Switch.
These stage join the previously revealed new course of Battle Stadium, Urchin Underpass and retro returning courses of Battle Course 1 (SNES) and Luigi's Mansion (GCN).
Shine Runner from MKDD returns and some new mode which looks like your being hunted by players with Piranha Plants and have to activate buttons (3:33)

ARMS character introduction (English version) Arms weapon showcase (English version) Arms looks like a fun game. My friend is also looking forward to it and she loves the characters. I think it's great Nintendo is continuing to produce IPs themed around new things like they have done with Splatoon. |

MEANWHILE IN EUROPE . . .  For anyone the the Euro region wondering about this, it comes with a free code for VC GB Metroid II, so don't buy M2 or use the MyNintendo discount (like I did) on it until this LE gets released. |

Star Fox 2 is enough to turn my head. I've been wanting to play that for over 20 years.
However, that's the only game I really care about, as I already own almost all the others.
The mere presence of Super FX games, tho, does make me wonder if we'll eventually see them on a Switch Virtual Console anyway. It'd be strange to keep them exclusive to a limited run plug-and-play console.

SNES mini could deserve it own thread it there is enough interest. Any how I just pre-ordered one, didn't have any interest in the NES mini after playing most of those games via Animal Crossing/VC/etc, the only SNES VC game I'm played is Super Metroid (Wii VC) and Kirby Super Star (Wii U VC). I still haven't played EarthBound since getting it the day of my Wii U or SMW last E3 (or was it 2015?).  But the inclusion of the unreleased SF2, just made me want it even more, I mean WHO THOUGHT THAT THIS WOULD EVER HAPPEN? SF2 will be playable this year!? Includes two controllers with 5 foot cords (compared to NES mini's 3 foot and single controller), both SF and YI. Outside of not including the surprising omissions of DKC2/3 and no puzzle games and 3rd party licensed stuff (Tetris, Simcity) it's a pretty good list of games (would have been a great opportunity to re-brand Tetris Attack as Puzzle League). Super Famicom mini also announced for Japan with the following games changed. Street Fighter II Turbo - Super Street Fighter II Super Castlevania IV - Ganbare Goemon Super Punch-Out!! - Super Formation Soccer Kirby's Dream Course - Panel De Pon EarthBound - Fire Emblem For once, Japan doesn't get EarthBound. |

^ Now it's confirmed, Detective Pikachu is coming west and will have an NA and Europe release March 23rd! Also Detective Pikachu amiibo!   From the press release, A special Detective Pikachu amiibo is in the works, too. This amiibo features a sleuthing Pikachu that’s larger than the standard amiibo, and when used with your game, it can unlock short videos that may contain helpful hints for your investigation. Check back for details on this special limited-edition amiibo.I'll admit though this is the Switch board, this Game Announcement thread still feels like 3DS games belong in it. |

That's amazing! Can't wait to play this and was wondering about when/if it would be localized.  I love there is going to be a film adaption as well. |

In a break from Wii U to Switch ports, here's comes a Wii to Switch port. Go Vacation was originally released in 2011 from the Namco dev's who made We Ski and it's sequel, this is basically like Wii Sports Resort except with more sports and you can travel around the island free roaming style. Also Nintendo is publishing the Switch version.
Story trailer for Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido. This game will have both Joy-Con or touch screen controls for the Switch version.
