Nintendo Fan News: Nintendo Weekly Fan News May 14th-18th

Today’s weekly news update is brought to you by the return of systems and rumors from the internet. Rumors that may or may not be true. Maybe true.

NES Classic Edition Return!

In a surprising announcement, the NES Classic Edition will return to stores on June 29!

This system along with the SNES Classic Edition system are expected to be available through the end of the year. Hopefully Nintendo can maintain the stock for the holiday season.

The NES Classic retails for $59.99 while the SNES retails for $79.99.

Ubisoft eShop Sale

In a recent sale going on, certain Ubisoft games are on sale for a limited time. Let me give you a quick rundown of these games:

Mario + Rabbids Battle Kingdom for $40.19

Just Dance 2018 for $34.79

Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition for $24.79

Uno for the Switch for $6.99

Monopoly for the Switch for $19.99

This sale lasts until May 21^st.

P.S. I would personally buy the Rabbids game at Walmart.com because it’s on rollback for around $29.88.

Nintendo E3 Enhancement

E3 is a little less than a month away, and some new announcements have been made. However, these are only details about the lines at E3, so nothing too special.

For this Nintendo E3, attendees need to reserve play slots ahead of time to play the new Super Smash Bros. game. Attendees will play two different ways, which includes going against people casually “for fun,” or play “for glory” in a competitive elimination match.

The reservation system for the Super Smash Bros. game is going to work like this: Anyone who registers for E3 2018 by May 31 will receive an email from E3 organizers on June 5 with details about how to reserve one electronic ticket to play the game. Make sure to check out for that email, as it is necessary. As I said before, it is required to register beforehand or you cannot play the game. Tickets will be in the form of QR Code patterns that can be viewed and stored on a smartphone or printed out, whichever you please.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition Release

After some wait, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition has finally released for the Switch.

This game is basically Hyrule Warriors, with some new changes. One of them is this game will include all previous DLC from Hyrule Warriors. The graphics are somewhat improved, due to it being on the Switch. Other than some other minor changes, the game should be the same.

The game retails for $59.99 and is available now.

Tidbit: Pokémon Let's Go! Pikachu

In an interesting tidbit of news from the rumor mill, there are some photos and shaky proof surrounding two new games called Pokémon Let's Go! Pikachu and Pokémon Let’s Go! Eevee. These games may or may not be the newest games planned for Switch. The only two photos I could find where of the domains of the sites. As usual, take these rumors with a grain of salt. I like to think these games may be true, but all the same.
