#85: This week’s post-E3 Nintendo digest

Hey, here’s this week’s issue of Switch Weekly , with all the Nintendo links worth checking out from the past seven days. I’ve been writing this whilst watching the Germany Vs Mexico World Cup group game, so keep getting distrated.

Anywho, E3 has come and gone, so as you might expect we’ve got plenty to dive into.

Just like Nintendo signalled, they would be focusing on Smash Bros at this E3 — and boy did they; perhaps a little too much? The game looks great either way, and will be landing just before Christmas.

The only really big surprise from Nintendo themselves was the reveal of a new Mario Party game coming in October, oh and Starfox turning up in Ubisoft’s toys-to-life game Starlink . No more on Metroid ( Nintendo said they don’t want to tease you too much ). No Animal Crossing just yet folks.

As expected, Fornite did drop , arriving on the Switch to much fanfare, and seeing over two million downloads in less than 24 hour hours (which is kind of insane). Like many, I also came up against problems trying to play as a result of Sony’s stance on cross-play , it’s frustrating to say the least

That’s about all from me, thanks for reading and enjoy the issue.
Cheers, Chris .
