Roll, mix, and brake your way to becoming a master pastry chef with a sweet new cooking Simulator, waku waku sweets, exclusively for Nintendo Switch. Create confections of all kinds with your new dream job!

Waku Waku Sweets was confirmed for Switch release the other day, but the press release didn't give a specific release date. All we knew was that it would see release sometime in Winter 2019. According to the listing on Amazon, which is where the cover art comes from, the game is slated for launch on Dec. 5th, 2019.

Yuzo Koshiro may be known for his many, many amazing soundtracks, but he also helps develop games as well. As a matter of fact, he's working on the Gotta Protectors sequel for Switch right now! In an interview with Nintendo Life, Koshiro talked about what he likes about working with Switch.

I think that Switch as a gaming platform is very attractive for small game development companies like us. Contrary to the old and unique consoles until 3DS, Switch has a relatively new and common architecture, like a PC. They also offer the development kit at an affordable price. It seems like Nintendo recently gives more importance to Indie games.

Susume!! Mamotte Knight: Hime no Totsugeki Serenade is the sequel to Gotta Protectors that's releasing for the Switch. While we've known about the title for awhile, we now have confirmation that it's going to be localized. This comes way of a Nintendo Life interview with Yuzo Koshiro, who is working on the game's soundtrack.

Now Ancient is developing a sequel to Gotta Protectors for Switch. We are planning to release the JP version by the end of this year and the English version by the next spring.

Something big is going on with the next episode of the Pokemon anime in Japan. It's been announced that the Sept. 1st, 2019 episode of the anime is going to feature "important global exclusive" news, but no specifics were given. Whether this pertains to the anime, Pokemon Sword & Shield, or something else altogether remains to be seen.

As war rages on throughout the Northern Realms, you take on the greatest contract of your life — tracking down the Child of Prophecy, a living weapon that can alter the shape of the world.

Looks like Bandai Namco might have underestimated the stock necessary for Fishing Spirits: Switch Version in Japan. Multiple customers are saying that they can't seem to find physical copies of the game anywhere. The title is currently sold out at all Bic Camera and Yodobashi Camera locations. As of right now, Amazon Japan has the game on backorder, saying that a new shipment should come in on Sept. 3rd, 2019.
