@Royalblues I've updated the DBFZ part to clarify this. I guess Dragon Ball players might still be interested to know this is being added to other versions of the game.
@zen1990 To clarify, it's Switch OLED trailers that have recently been taken down in certain regions (not Lite). The Switch OLED trailer has been up for roughly a year, so Kit's thoughts about it possibly being linked to licensing make sense.
@OFFICIALMichi Sonic Mania runs at 60fps on Switch, so the collection should be the same. John Linneman of Digital Foundry has also backed this up on social media.
I think the "only" part of that quote (see comments from @samuelvictor) is in reference to 4K for the PlayStation and Xbox versions.
"If you head over to websites like eBay, you'll see this minifig is being listed for hundreds of dollars. It's being bid on for lower prices but is still going for a reasonable sum, which is not what you really want to see with a brand new product like this."
Update: I've added in an extra line to clarify this.
@topher6490 Thanks, I'll update the story with this.
@Specter_of-the_OLED As noted in the article, this is a Switch port. The game has been out on PlayStation and other platforms since October 2021. And as mentioned in the PR, this version will include everything the other versions have, just not this upcoming fighter DLC.
@iLikeUrAttitude Nope, as mentioned in the article - "Nintendo didn't make any mention of this during its recent Direct announcement or the official PR"
@KingMike Yes, but SNK developed that game and Sega supervised the production.
Yuji's comment above is in relation to the 20th anniversary of Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. A game Sega developed and published after it became a third-party publisher.
@LinkSword Nintendo obviously hasn't provided any official solutions when it comes to a Mother 3 localisation, so yes - fans had to essentially "fall back on" a fan-made translation patch, which went above and beyond!
@Moroboshi876 Android 21 (Lab Coat) is "coming soon"... that's all we know right now. Bandai Namco has only just revealed this fighter today in a teaser at Jump Festa, so I guess we'll find out more in time.
@Blackrosewaifu9000 We've not covered the demo on the site until now, so I think this post still serves a purpose. I'm going to give it a go myself later today!
@Specter_of-the_OLED Yes, it did - but as noted, "later on" in the X1 generation when Phil Spencer took over as Head of Xbox, they immediately dropped the Kinect bundled in with systems, reducing the overall price.
@jojobar Are you sure? I've only played the OG versions (Xbox and PC), but I watched some Android mobile footage and the combat text box looks more like what's in the Steam version.
Some of the UI on Switch looks the same as mobile though. I'm guessing the Switch version is closer in resemblance to the mobile (portable) release overall.

Here's the Japan one:

@Circasurviver Either way, we hadn't covered this until now. It's great to see Next Level working on this series again.

Re: Double Fine's Grim Fandango Remaster Is Getting A Physical Release On Switch
@Azuris I haven't played this remaster, but I think it added in point-and-click controls. Or you can stick with the OG tank controls.
Re: Min Min's Smash Bros. amiibo Could Be Arriving Soon By The Looks Of It
@Snatcher Gotta stay hopeful! But yeah, I don't believe there's been an amiibo confirmation for Sora...at least yet.
Re: Min Min's Smash Bros. amiibo Could Be Arriving Soon By The Looks Of It
@iLikeUrAttitude No, as stated above - Steve & Alex (Minecraft), Sephiroth, Pyra, Mythra and Kazuya will all be receiving amiibo.
@Snatcher I guess we'll get Sora as well.
Re: Sonic's Run On "Non-Sega Hardware" Made Yuji Naka Both Sad And Happy
@Specter_of-the_OLED I think Yuji is mostly just reflecting on the GC release of SA2:B. It was a new chapter for Sega (and Sonic) around this time.
Re: Sonic's Run On "Non-Sega Hardware" Made Yuji Naka Both Sad And Happy
@KingMike Yes, but SNK developed that game and Sega supervised the production.
Yuji's comment above is in relation to the 20th anniversary of Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. A game Sega developed and published after it became a third-party publisher.
Re: Mother 3 Producer Would "Love To See" GBA Entry Receive A Worldwide Release
@LinkSword Nintendo obviously hasn't provided any official solutions when it comes to a Mother 3 localisation, so yes - fans had to essentially "fall back on" a fan-made translation patch, which went above and beyond!
We've covered it previously as well:

@Maxz Thanks for this - I've added your comment to the story.
Re: Square Enix's Chocobo GP Will Include Three Different Types Of Vehicles
@alexybubble This is just how Square Enix is wording it, and there are some minor cosmetic differences in the above screenshots.
"There are three types of vehicles available in #ChocoboGP!"
Who knows though, it might be different for other characters. Guess we'll find out!

@FishyS No need to worry, that's just what they're calling it nowadays.
Re: Bill Gates Apparently Put "A Lot Of Pressure" On Xbox's Team Leaders To Respond To The Wii Craze

Re: Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp Rated In Australia (Again)
@Silly_G I'd still say it's in reference to this:
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/06/nintendo_confirms_advance_wars_1plus2_re-boot_camp_will_include_online_support
It would be nice if they added custom map sharing (online) as well, but I don't think a map editor has been confirmed.

"This title is not to be confused with Oddity - another fan-made effort that also started out as 'Mother 4' and was rebranded."
Re: That Large Combat Text Box In Star Wars: KOTOR On Switch Is "Intended"
@Yosti Yeah, the battle box definitely looks a bit different in the Xbox version.
Re: That Large Combat Text Box In Star Wars: KOTOR On Switch Is "Intended"
@jojobar Are you sure? I've only played the OG versions (Xbox and PC), but I watched some Android mobile footage and the combat text box looks more like what's in the Steam version.
Some of the UI on Switch looks the same as mobile though. I'm guessing the Switch version is closer in resemblance to the mobile (portable) release overall.
