Nintendo has announced Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, a prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
It’s due out 20th November 2020 on Nintendo Switch, and is set 100 years before Breath of the Wild.
“Witness the events of the Great Calamity first-hand and try to save Hyrule from destruction!” reads the official blurb.
It’s time to fight with style. 8BitDo has unveiled a new arcade stick that looks like the lovechild of a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and Street Fighter V cabinet. The peripheral, which supports PC and Switch, has a bunch of customization options to suit different players. It has a “universal mounting plate,” for instance, so fighting game enthusiasts can swap in sticks and buttons made by other manufacturers. It also supports 8BitDo’s Ultimate Software so that, unlike the company’s old N30 arcade stick, you can change the button mapping, save custom profiles, and execute macros with the P1 and P2 options in the top right-hand corner.
A new Nintendo leak has revealed an alleged portable GameCube console. That’s right, Nintendo was apparently experimenting with a portable version of the GameCube, though it’s unclear how exactly this would have been realized. As you may know, 2020 has been a prolific year for Nintendo leaks, and it looks like Nintendo’s leaky ship isn’t entirely plugged yet, because a new leak has surfaced online, and is currently making the rounds.

A new Amazon listing for an upcoming Nintendo Switch game has us thanking the heavens – which is fitting, given that game is none other than The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
The 2011 installment in the beloved Nintendo franchise launched originally on the Nintendo Wii, with a release on the Wii U eShop in 2016. It was the last mainline Zelda game before Breath of the Wild (2017) on the Nintendo Switch, and is well due a port for the expanded audience of Nintendo’s bestselling hybrid console.
Train graffiti isn’t uncommon and is something that might not catch your eye. But if you were stopped at a train crossing, you’d surely notice this boxcar made to look like a giant Nintendo Entertainment System game controller. The painted car includes the large plus sign and bright red buttons we all know and love.
This impressive piece of graffiti is a slightly modified version of the console’s original controller, and was tagged by TEXER ALB. The real thing has two red buttons, not three like we see here. Each circle on the boxcar represents A, L, and B that corresponds to the tagger’s initials, hence the need for the additional button.

Earlier today, Nintendo of America Tweeted out a new image of Mario lounging in the summer sun. The render could just be a fun summer-themed design, but Nintendo fans are convinced that there might be something more to it. Earlier this year, rumors began circulating that Super Mario Sunshine will appear on Nintendo Switch, alongside other 3D Mario classics. The game debuted on GameCube back in 2002, and has never been ported to another console. Whether the image is a hint at the game’s return or just some summer fun from Nintendo remains to be seen, but the company has certainly gained the attention of fans!
