Pokemon Home connectivity is coming to Pokemon Legends: Z-A imminently, it’s been announced. The functionality is going live on April 2 in Japan, which means we’ll likely be seeing this tomorrow night in North America.

While hopes of a Super Smash Bros. movie had never been higher, it’s time to pump the breaks a bit as Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has indicated that such a project won’t be happening anytime soon.
Miyamoto was recently discussing The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and how it has characters like Pikmin and R.O.B. With some fans discussing the possibility of a “Nintendo Cinematic Universe”, Polygon asked how how much he wants to grow Mario’s world to bring in other characters.
It’s no secret that Pikmin is Shigeru Miyamoto’s baby. Miyamoto was also responsible for the likes of Mario and Zelda, but he’s always had a soft spot for the plant-animal hybrid creatures.
Even when Pikmin wasn’t lighting the sales charts on fire, Miyamoto never gave up on Pikmin. The series has now seen four different titles and is popping up elsewhere. You may have spotted Pikmin at Super Nintendo World, and now the creatures even have a cameo appearance in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
We’re just a few hours away from the debut of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and reviews for the film are now coming in.
This is a follow-up to The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which released in 2023. This time around, Nintendo worked with Illumination to create something based on the Super Mario Galaxy games for Wii. However, don’t expect a 1:1 recreation of those titles. Super Mario Galaxy is the focus at the end of the day, but we’ve seen elements of Super Mario Odyssey and even the inclusion of Fox McCloud from Star Fox.
There’s a bit of disappointing news for Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 fans as the game has now been delisted on the Nintendo Switch eShop. This has gone into effect in regions such as North America, Australia, and Japan so far. We’re still seeing it in Europe, but that could change soon.
If you search for the game on the store, nothing will pop up. Even Nintendo’s own website now provides an error message when attempting to access the page.
