    I expect they couldn't put Mario in that because Nintendo is partnered with DeNA for mobile games, not that the joint sports games are over.

    Thats right, I'd forgotten that the mobile game was announced at the same time as the others.

    The other one is the vanilla Olympics sports game without the Sonic/Mario stuff.

    The IRL event hasn't been renamed.

    They're still going to call it Tokyo 2020 or just haven't officially said anything at all?

    Probably because all the merchandise, copyright, and media rights refer to Tokyo 2020, and it'd be a PITA to change all of that over...

    Yep, the Olympics is already a massive enough money pit without throwing a ton of stuff they've already done in the bin and doing it over.

    Just a heads up, apparently Xenoblade Definitive Edition was leaked by someone who broke NDA. Including info on the new epilogue. Watch out for spoilers.

    Further delays for restocking the Switch due to Covid Lockdowns in Malaysia and The Philippines, where the Switch's circuit boards and PCB components are produced. Despite that amped-up production number they touted out recently for summer, they admit they may not be able to have enough stock for the holiday season.

    I've heard it's the exact same joystick hardware, so yes - it will show up eventually.

    Same with the Pro-Controller. With the Switch Lite its worse, cause you can't replace your Joy-Cons.

    Only controller that won't is a Gamecube controller with the adapter. However my friend uses this as his fix, but he still has to switch to the joy-cons if they ask you to use the - or + button.

    And new Joy-Cons will still get drift, its not if, but when.

    Nintendo have not fixed the product currently.
