NBA Playgrounds (Switch – eShop) will be released in May in Europe and North America.
The Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+
While it’s still MIA in Europe, The Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ seems to be doing pretty well in North America. In fact, Nicalis announced yesterday that the game was getting a second run at retail. We don’t know when it will be available, just that it’s getting a brand new boxart!
Here’s what the new boxart looks like:

Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D: Space Recipe for Disaster
We already know that the developers are working on a patch for Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D: Space Recipe for Disaster, in order to fix some issues with the game. That includes one impacting Kamaloon (Boss C), where bombs do not spawn when playing in Time Trial mode.
Funnily enough, that glitch only happens when stereoscopic 3D is activated, so if you’re encoutering that glitch, simply disable 3D for that particular boss if you don’t want to wait for the update!
If anyone is having problems with Boss C "Kamaloon" – turn the 3D slider off – We got a fix in the upcoming patch soon, but 3D off will fix https://t.co/ePXStwjQI1
