Super Mario Odyssey
Yesterday, another special outfit went live in Super Mario Odyssey: the Rango Hat & Rango Suit. As always, you first need to clear the main adventure before being able to find this outfit in any good Crazy Cap store!
Here’s what the outfit looks like:

Kirby Star Allies
Today, HAL Laboratory shared some more concept-art for the game, and more precisely the following enemies:
- Driblee: for this one, they obviously went with a water theme;
- Floaty the Cellsore: they knew from the beginning that this enemy would be found in water. The shape of that enemy is quite unique and cute. You can use it as platform if you can manage to freeze it!

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Donkey Kong Adventure
Here’s the launch trailer for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Donkey Kong Adventure, now available worldwide:
Nintendo Labo
With Nintendo Labo, Nintendo has made it clear they want to reach not just people who play games (more or less regularly), but also people who don’t. And in the United Kingdom, Nintendo has found an interesting way to bring Nintendo Labo to those non-gamers… the classroom.
On June 21st, Nintendo brought Nintendo Labo to a class at Southgame Primary School in London, where 30 children (aged between 10 and 11 years old) and their parents go to play with the game. Naturally, the focus was on how Nintendo Labo can stimulate the creative side of kids.
You can find more details about the experience over at the Toys n Play Things website!
Speaking of Nintendo Labo, here’s a video clip showing another mini-game that you can get the blueprint for via the News channel on your Nintendo Switch:
