If you need an alternative to quality family time over the next few days, Battletoads and Ninja Gaiden 2 have been added to the Switch’s NES app, while Bionic Commando and Kid Icarus are now in the Game Boy app. Both apps now also let you remap your controller using the in-game menu.

I’m deeply regretting skipping preorders for Analogue’s reimagined N64 console now that 8BitDo has updated its 64 Bluetooth controller with a new retro gray color scheme. At $45 it’s more expensive than the $40 black and white versions, but those colored buttons are hitting all my nostalgia buttons.
The mythical pokémon Zeraora has been almost impossible to obtain in the mainline games since it was first introduced in Ultra Sun / Ultra Moon. But that’s probably going to change next month when the monster’s new Mega Evolved form debuts in Pokémon Legends: Z-A’s Mega Dimension DLC.
Aspyr has shadow dropped Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on both Nintendo Switch consoles. For the first time, you’ll be able to play the 2013 game that rebooted the Tomb Raider franchise on the Nintendo Switch family of systems.
But if modern Lara with her modern video game conventions aren’t your thing, Aspyr has also released remastered versions of the classic Tomb Raider games as well.
0The company behind the Analogue Pocket is back with its latest game console, which plays N64 games in 4K.
Apropos of it being Monday, Nintendo has just shared a handful of new photos from its upcoming live-action The Legend of Zelda movie starring Bo Bragason and Benjamin Evan. The pics don’t tell us much about the movie’s story, but Zelda’s blue outfit suggests it’ll involve elements from the Breath of the Wild timeline.


Nintendo shared an overview video today for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, which comes out on December 4th on Switch and Switch 2. A lot of it looks like classic Metroid Prime, but the chatty companions worry me (and I’m not the only one).
A report from Kotaku notes that a recent Switch 2 update is causing problems. The 21.0.0 update adds some quality of life tweaks, but according to multiple posts on Reddit and elsewhere, the update has also apparently made some third-party docks stop working that even a full restart won’t fix. It’s unknown whether Nintendo intended the update brick users’ docks or if it was simply an accident.
