Nintendo Switch:

Arms June 16 - We got some new information and footage from ARMS today. We heard about the different types of Weaponized hands attached to your arms characters. Heavy Type, Standard Glove Type, Multi-shot, Curve Type to name a few. Each arm has a special attribute that activates when charged up including Fire, Electric, Ice, Explosion, Stun, Blind and Wind. The in game currency you get when you fight allows you to get new arms. The more you fight, the more you win. The more you win, the bigger you can grow your arsenal. Mix and match any 2 of your available Arms to change your strategy. A new fighter named Minmin was shown and dubbed the "Ramen Bomber". Her left arm can transform into a dragon which my love of dragons tells me is very cool. Spring Man can emit a shock wave to deflect enemy punches. We then saw some game footage of Spring Man and Minmin doing battle demonstrating different fighter abilities, and weapon combinations. There is 2 on 2 battle mode as well as standard 1 on 1.

Choose from standard horizontal display or switch to vertical for that classic arcade feeling. Bring on the Nostalgia this summer.
Nintendo Dock Standalone Accessory May 19 - Mid May we will see
limited numbers of the standalone Nintendo Switch Dock become available at retailers. This is a fantastic option for those of you who want a second dock so you don't have to disconnect your whole Switch set up every time you want to switch to different Televisions, or if you want a separate one to take with you. Unfortunately they didn't tell us just how limited these numbers are, but if I know Nintendo be on the look out for pre-orders starting Now. I hope that limited numbers is simply because of production time and isn't going to be a trend for this item.
Splatoon 2 July 21- There's been a lot of Splatoon 2 information out there but we learned today that Battlfy will be hosting a Splatoon 2 Tournament for those of you who are lucky enough to be 18+ years old and reside in the United States. Be on the lookout for more information about this soon!
Further to that information we learned about a new mode in Splatoon 2 called Salmon Run. This mode pits you against waves of NPC monsters (chum) and tough Fish Bosses (Steelhead). Use a lifesaver to indicate you need revived when a Boss knocks you out. Collect Eggs in teams of 4 while wearing special gear for this mode. Communicating with your team to defeat these difficult bosses is key to allow you to earn Golden Eggs. Take your eggs and fill the container to complete your objective and earn some "fresh" rewards.
New Splatoon Amiibo (as seen on part 1 of this post) will be released as well. Tap them to befriend them in game and they will remember your settings and gear. Take pictures with them and share them via the Nintendo Switch album on social media. You may even get special gear from your new amiibo friends.
