Last October, EA gave a point-by-point outline of its plans for releases throughout fiscal 2021, including ongoing live service games, a new sports title, games from third-party partners, and a lot of Apex Legends.
It was also, as recently as January of this year, still very lukewarm on bringing more of its games to the Nintendo Switch.
But now, with the publisher's fiscal 2020 solidly in the rearview, EA has offered an update on its upcoming release slate of titles, which has shifted somewhat since it first laid things out in October.
For one, EA appears to have relaxed somewhat on its Switch stance, noting that it would launch "multiple" titles on Nintendo's platform this year -- Burnout Paradise: Remastered making just one.
Alongside Burnout Paradise, EA also already has announced Command & Conquer: Remastered for PC, with both titles currently planned for June 2020. And in Q2 and Q3, annual sports titles FIFA 21, Madden NFL 21, and NHL 21 are all still on track.
So far, all that is in line with what we've been led to expect so far based on the October remarks. Also still in the plans for the year is Medal of Honor VR, and that as-yet-unannounced fourth sports title.
So what's changed? Back in October, EA outlined that it was planning to have two unannounced projects from third-party partners. That number has now been upped to four, presumably additions to the EA Originals indie program.
And then there are two upcoming, unannounced mobile titles as well.

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp enjoyed its best ever month for revenue in April, according to data from Sensor Tower.
In April 2020, the mobile game earned $7.9 million in revenue across Google Play and the App Store -- just ahead of the $7.8 million it earned in August 2019.
This spike coincided with the launch of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which launched for the Nintendo Switch on March 20. Nintendo has not confirmed an official sales figure, but it has broken records in several key global territories.

The Nintendo Switch passed 55 million units sold in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, boosted by the strong performance of Animal Crossing and Pokémon.
Nintendo earned Ą1.3 trillion ($12.2 billion) in the financial year, up 9% over an already strong fiscal 2019. The Japanese company made a profit of Ą259 billion ($2.4 billion), up 33% year-on-year.
It was a good year for first-party software, with Pokémon Sword and Shield reaching 17.37 million units by the end of March, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons selling 11.77 million units despite launching just 11 days before the end of the accounting period.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons' strong performance continued, with the game reaching 13.4 million units in the six weeks following its launch,
Luigi's Mansion 3 and Super Mario Maker 2 also performed well, and Nintendo said that 27 Switch games sold one million units during the fiscal year. Overall, 169 million units of software were sold on the Switch during fiscal 2020, up 42% year-on-year.
Nintendo said that, of the revenue earned through software, 34% came from digital sales -- a significant increase on the 24.8% share in the prior year.

Cemu v1.18.2c is released. Cemu is a Nintendo Wii U emulator that runs commercial games. Highly experimental software to emulate Wii U applications on PC.
Cemu Changelog:
# New in 1.18.2c:
Vulkan: Fixed a bug in the new cache which could lead to Cemu freezing or crashing randomly
# New in 1.18.2b:
Vulkan: The SPIR-V optimization pass is now always enabled (no longer considered experimental)
Vulkan: Added SPIR-V cache to speed up shader loading screen on subsequent runs
Vulkan: Fixed an issue where the wrong image layout (LAYOUT_UNDEFINED) would be provided for operations on 3D textures
On strict or optimized drivers this could lead to texture data being thrown away (as far as we know, only Nvidia 445.75+ drivers are affected)
# New in 1.18.2:
general: When updating graphic packs Cemu will let the user know if previously enabled graphic packs were removed or renamed
general: Improved robustness of account.dat parser (invalid files could crash Cemu on launch)
general: Updated language files
coreinit: Added API MEMFreeToFrmHeap (#322)
Used by Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth (but other issues still prevent it from running)
nn_nfp: Changed behavior of GetNfpRegisterInfo for unregistered Amiibos
Games that expect Amiibos with a registered owner no longer should display an empty ErrEula message box
nn_nfp: Implemented API GetErrorCode and NFCGetTagInfo
Vulkan: Correctly emulate depth clamping
This fixes the overly bright backgrounds in some stages of Super Smash Bros for Wii U
Vulkan: Added an overlay notification for when a Vulkan graphics pipeline has to be compiled
Vulkan: Added experimental SPIR-V optimization pass which is applied to all shaders that are compiled during the shader loading screen
This should reduce pipeline compilation stutter if a shader cache is present. It may also reduce GPU load slightly
The downside is that the shader loading screen is much slower. But we plan to address this in a future Cemu update
By default this option is disabled. It can be enabled under Debug -> Experimental
Also note that this option results in different shaders being generated and consequently triggers new pipeline compilation
input: Remember ip and port for DSU client

A new project has been released, likely making use of the public decompilation of Super Mario 64. The game has been fully ported over to PC, bringing some brand new features to the decades-old game, such as 4K upscaling, analog camera control, and widescreen support. This fanmade PC version of Super Mario 64 runs off DirectX 12, and can be played from start to finish. Download links cannot be shared, but you can see someone playing the first 10 minutes of the port in a YouTube video below. You can also share your thoughts in the discussion thread.

Are you willing to pledge money for better storage of your Nintendo 64 peripherals? That's the question asked by Australian Shane Battye, as he kicks off his Kickstarter campaign for the 64Mate. The 64Mate is designed to house accessories and games by acting as a storage caddy and attaching itself to the bottom of your Nintendo 64 console. They can also be stacked, if you want to create a Frankenstein level tower of Nintendo 64-related goodness that reaches the heavens. If you're interested in the project, it costs just under $50 USD to back it, with $4,000 currently reached out of a goal of $38,000, at the time of writing.

The Game Boy was a huge part of my childhood, games such as Tetris, Mario, R-Type and even PaperBoy was played for many hours, even when trying to see the damn thing on long haul travels. So to see a new horror PC game called ' Lasagna Boy ' announced as spiritual successor to the original Lasagna Boy Classic with a Game Boy aesthetic, certainly got my attention enough to announce it on Indie Retro News!

In recent times, we've seen quite a number of major leaks in regards to video game content. Joining the leaks for The Last of Us Part II's story cutscenes, and the source code for both Pokemon Gold and Silver and Team Fortress 2 is a collection of Nintendo-related content. Supposedly, RouteFree, the company behind Nintendo's iQue Chinese division, and BroadOn, a company that assisted Nintendo with the development of the Wii, were recently hacked, leading to a source obtaining various files from them, including source code and betas.
Included in the files was information about how Nintendo created the Wii itself, demos for games that they used to test the Nintendo 64 during development, the full source code for the Nintendo Wii's IOS, a handful of pictures and documents about Nintendo's plans during the years of 2004-2006, the iQue GameCube SDK, and much more. Certain users have already begun uploading videos of some of these leaked demos running on emulators or official hardware. Just as with the other leaks, you cannot link to the content or distribute it, as those files contain copyrighted content.

Lab Zero's Metroidvania action-RPG Indivisible launched on the Nintendo Switch North American eshop today, surprising everyone -- including its developers.
"Feel like you missed the announcement?" said project lead Mike Zaimont on Twitter today. "You're not alone, our team found out because people on Twitter sent us congratulations! I had no idea! But there it is!"
Zaimont continued in a tweet thread, noting that while the Switch version is "great," it is an older build of the game that is missing features that were added more recently to the other platform releases of the game, including co-op and New Game+.
He concluded by apologizing, saying that the launch "does not represent the quality standards of Lab Zero" and was released without any prior release date announcement or lead-up PR.
Zaimont also commented in a reply to another Twitter user that he did not know when Switch codes for IndieGogo backers or a physical Switch version would be released.
505 has not issued an official statement, though it announced an hour ago that the game was now also available on the European eshop and that Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian versions would be launched in the future.
Additionally, USGamer reports that in a message on the official 505 Discord channel, the publisher has said it is "looking into what occurred."
GamesIndustry.biz has reached out to 505 Games for comment.
Update, May 1, 2020: 505 Games has released a statement, explaining why the game was released earlier.

Nintendo continues its train of minor fixes to the 10.x.x line of system software. This time, it isn't just stability mentioned in the patch notes. Nintendo has fixed a prior issue where newly synced Switch Pro Controllers would operate with incorrect analogue stick inputs, which is now resolved thanks to the newly-released firmware version 10.0.2. Other than that, there's the standard stability improvements hidden within the update, per usual.
Ver. 10.0.2 (Released April 29, 2020)
General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience, including a solution for the following:
We have fixed an issue where a Nintendo Switch console with system menu version 10.0.0 or 10.0.1 does not set up a new Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, sometimes causing incorrect joystick control.

Released years ago was a series of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games for the Nintendo Wii. Unfortunately, they were exclusive to Japan, and never got an official western release. Thanks to a fan-translation team, however, English-speakers can now play and understand the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blazing, Stormy, and Light Adventure Squad games. Previous online events were also re-added to the game through Wiimmfi and RiiConnect24, allowing players to obtain event Pokemon, with capabilities for online friend rescue to be added at a later date.
Finally the Japan-exclusive WiiWare Pokémon Mystery Dungeon titles, the Adventure Squad series, have been translated! Patches for each game have been released after months and months of hard work from fans of the series. The team has also worked with the Wiimmfi and RiiConnect24 teams in order to restore the event Pokémon that were distributed for this game. Other features of the translation include:
-Pokémon nickname limit expanded to 10 characters (Japanese 5)
-Buddy Passwords fully functional. These can now be found by hitting the Wii Home button, then pressing the "Operations Guide" button.
-Pre-patched with Wiimmfi and RiiConnect24 for ease of event access. Friend Rescues do not work currently, but are being looked into.
-Item icons and many descriptions ported from Super Mystery Dungeon
-Dummied/beta items ported from Explorers of Sky have been restored. Inaccessible in-game, can be accessed with cheats.
-It's in English now, which is cool.

The Gamevice saga continues. Not content with losing in their infringement case last month, Gamevice dredged their patent claims against Nintendo up again, in hopes of actually winning this time around. After filing with the United States International Trade Commission, the USITC will be moving forward by investigating the claims made by Gamevice that Nintendo is infringing upon their patent of a tablet system with detachable controllers. Previously, the Patent Trial and Appeal board threw out Gamevice's case after investigation, but this latest announcement means that while the merit of the case itself hasn't been determined, a judge will still be assigned to investigate the validity of the claims, even though the US Patent and Trademark Office already ruled that devices that attach video game controllers to tablets is "unpatentable".
By instituting this investigation (337-TA-1197), the USITC has not yet made any decision on the merits of the case. The USITC’s Chief Administrative Law Judge will assign the case to one of the USITC’s administrative law judges (ALJ), who will schedule and hold an evidentiary hearing. The ALJ will make an initial determination as to whether there is a violation of section 337; that initial determination is subject to review by the Commission.

This patch modifies all the portraits of the family members in the game to resemble to their movie counterpart. It also fixes some graphical glitch (like the sprite of Thing in the master bedroom, and the eyes of Granny in the gallery) and it refines various tiles in the game. Give it a try!
