Here’s the full roundup:

Pokemon Winds Waves

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart outlining what Japanese gamers are looking forward to based on reader votes. Pokemon Winds and Waves were recently announced, and now land for the first time – if we were to guess, they’ll be moving up in the coming weeks.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between March 4 and March 10.

Below are the latest Nintendo products that can be currently pre-ordered at retailers:

Arc System Works unveiled its plans for Guilty Gear Strive today, including news about DLC characters Jam Kuradoberi and Robo-Ky plus an update on the version 2.00 update.

Jam Kuradoberi kicks off Season Pass 5 on April 9, 2026. Robo-Ky will follow this summer. After that, two more DLC characters will be released in Winter 2026 and Spring 2027. One thing we’ll note is that it’s possible we’ll be seeing the DLC later in the Nintendo Switch version – meaning the April 9 date for Jam Kuradoberi may not apply here.

Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement has been listed for Nintendo Switch alongside an unannounced Switch 2 title from 505 Games.

The Scarlet Engagement, a sequel to the original, was previously announced last year. Although there wasn’t any news about a Nintendo release, the latest discovery suggests that we’ll be getting it on Switch at the very least. It’d be somewhat surprising to see it on Nintendo Switch rather than Switch 2, but it’s always possible that plans could change (or there was a mistake here).

Digimon Story: Time Stranger will be receiving major DLC, Bandai Namco and Media Vision revealed today. That news was just announced at Digimon Con 2026.

This week, Nintendo Switch 2 received what was its biggest system update so far. There was a good amount added and improved, but the most significant feature was the inclusion of Handheld Mode Boost. When turned on, it forces Nintendo Switch 1 games to be played as if they were docked when playing portably. If you’re primarily a handheld player, this is a significant feature as it can give you a better image on-screen.

Have you gotten around to trying out the Handheld Mode Boost on Nintendo Switch 2? Which games have you tested? Let us know in the comments.

The latest Famitsu review scores for the week of March 21, 2026 are as follows:

It’s been a little while since we last reported on some Nintendo Switch games that have been fixed for Switch 2 for backwards compatibility, but a new batch is in. Most of the titles here were addressed in conjunction with the most recent system update.

There are some big names that have been fixed, including Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe. For this one specifically, while it was functional, Nintendo previously noted that users may encounter audio issues – though thankfully, that won’t happen any longer.

Below is the full list of backwards compatibility fixes for Nintendo Switch games on Switch 2 for March 2026:

Best Mario games ranked

Nintendo recently celebrated its favorite holiday, MAR10 Day – which means there’s no better time to rank the mainline Super Mario titles. For reference, this only includes games that the company considers to be “main series”, which generally includes 2D Mario and 3D Mario, but not Wario Land or Yoshi’s Island (even though the former was called Super Mario Land 3 and the latter Super Mario World 2). It also includes Super Mario Run, for whatever reason, and as you might expect that game is nowhere to be found on our list.

Before you read, keep in mind that this is of course a heavily subjective list, and it’s more to promote all of you ranking your own lists in the comments down below than anything else. Feel free to share your thoughts after you read our top ten!
